If you want to go back in time approx. 30 years and play your Death Metal in an old School way some bands in California and Florida are known for, you better do it well as you have some competition nowadays. Mental Casket from Warsaw, Poland does it well, I can tell you that already.
The roaring guitar riffs, the simple yet pounding and effective drums as well as the song structures are definitely for fans of Death’s “Scream Bloody Gore” and “Leprosy” as well as Autopsy’s “Severed Survival” and “Mental Funeral”. But maybe the name of the band gave that away already…and the logo…well….
And sure, those classicks are sitting on their thrones still, never to be thrown off again, but Mental Casket made a more than decent demo that does justice to 2 of the influential masters of Death Metal. (Ricardo)
