Procreation – Ghostwood

Procreation from The Netherlands was founded as a “just for the fun”-project in 2011. But at one point the blokes decided to take it up a notch and started writing their own material. The result is this debut album called “Ghostwood”, which is mainly Death Metal but also have elements of Black Metal (fast riffs, title-track) and Thrash Metal. The vocals of Mark are like Peter of Vader tries to do an imitation of Jan-Chris de Koeyer of Gorefest on their “Soul Survivor” album. The Vader influences go even further as the riffs have a Vader vibe going on, as well as Benediction. A decent debut with some nice leads, but I do miss the final punch in the face. Maybe the new album will take care of that. (Ricardo)
