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

Malignament emerges with a malevolent sound and this is very clear with their first demo, which contains three songs, that simply transport me to a journey in the vast ice caps of Scandinavia, where echoes the unholy howling of the wolfs to the moon.

The cold guitar with its typical Scandinavian distortion, rips the profane melodies on the fast parts that will mould themselves, into the creation of more melodic parts. The bass, stands out not less intense or indispensable, in the perfect malevolent symbiosis of chords. The drums are a real downfall where the blizzards are constant and powerful, in the more melodic parts, their subtle presence appears in a destructive way. The vocals wander between parts that get involved in the profane proclamations more mystical, connecting all the parts on this fist demo in a perfect way and like must be.

This demo contains a very primitive essence, where the melodic parts fit perfectly in the final concept and that even enriches a lot the way this demo was made and recorded.

Despite being Malignament’s first work, it shouldn’t go unnoticed, much less leave indifferent those who listen to this great demo.
