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

What we have here is the debut full-length of Sanctifying Ritual from Germany, who released 2 demos, an 7” EP and a compilation (containing the two demos) prior to the self-titled album.

On the demos they have covered old tunes of Sepultura and Merciless, to give you a hint about the deadly attitude these guys have. If you add the Vampire demo, with the great “At Midnight I’ll Possess Your Corpse” track, Sadistic Intent and Repugnant along with some great dungeon torturing vocals, along with the dark atmosphere and good leads, you will have a good direction where Sanctifying Ritual is heading to.

Poisonous, rabid and rotten, just how I like it. (Ricardo)
