A new review section: Buried by Time And Dust

We added a new review section, coincidentally another Mayhem reference following 'The Past is Alive', with the title 'Buried by Time and Dust'. Over the years, a lot of promos have been gathering dust simply because a fresh wave of promos arrived the following month and they were consigned to oblivion. We will review them here to make a clear distinction with our other reviews. We will also use it to complete a discography in terms of reviews. Feel free to contact us if you would like to submit your music or would like to join the staff.

Info

The charming thing of this thrashy Old School Death Metal demo…it seems to be recorded with just a mic in the rehearsalroom. Still, the tape has a more than decent sound. So, how thrashy Old School are we talkin’ about? Let’s say, end 1980’s…begin 1990’s and all quite basic. The metal has variation as it has faster Death/Thrash mixed with Death/Doom in the vein of an early Asphyx. Throw in some Death’s “Scream Bloody Gore” and the Pestilence demos and you have the influences on “Reflections of Horror”. Although I enjoyed this demo, the riffs could have been better. Maybe it is no surprise to you that these guys already have signed a contract with Razorback Recordings. (Ricardo)
