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

Some might have already heard In-Defilade as they released their debut in 2015. And now they have unleashed their new creation “Elude“. For those who haven’t, this band was formed by ex-Nile member Jon Vesano (the albums “In Their Darkened Shrines” and “Annihilation For The Wicked”) and was joined by ex-Narcotic Wasteland drummer Erik Schultek, Subverseraph (Vesperian Sorrow) and Shawn Lee Bozarth (Defiance). Guest appearance by the almighty Dallas Toler-Wade (also ex-Nile) and Naska make this album even greater. About the music now…imagine a modern industrialised version of Nile and you pretty much have it. Brutal face melting death metal with pseudo Arabic scales, relentless drumming, great atmosphere with a colder edge due to some industrial elements and  the member know their duties. This an album I can recommend to modern death metal fanatics. (DPF)
