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 fine gents of Swedish Mordbrand seems to be on this earth for EP’s and splits only. If you don’t know them, Mordbrand has Per Broder of God Macabre / Macabre End on vocals and are playing Swedish Death Metal all day long. Not like most colleagues of the same music style, Mordbrand has more Doom and Darkness in their tunes. Hence the splits with bands like Evoke and Bombs of Hades. Maybe not that strange concerning the God Macabre link. “Let Them Consume” has that kind of Doom passage which I’m referring to. It all starts like what you can expect from an Old School Swedish Death Metal band, but after a couple of minutes it all get gloomy and slow. But it totally fits in and enhance the dark atmosphere. On “Let Them Slumber” the guest vocals of Craft’s Nox are givin’ the dark atmosphere a little push as well. Horror. Dark. Mordbrand! (Ricardo)
