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

A 4-way split with some fine Greek acts who have their roots anchored in Old School Death Metal, one way or another. Soulskinner, Obsecration, Abyssus and Malicious Silence all are featured with 2 songs, although Abyssus and Malicious Silence have chosen a cover to complete their part of the split, Abyssus have chosen Obituary’s “Godly Beings” while Malicious Silence picked Bolt Thrower’s “When Cannons Fade”.

The asset of this split is the fact that they all play their Death Metal differently, for example Obsecration has a certain ancient Rotting Christ approach in their US Death Metal while Abyssus is far more straightforward, combining old Death and surprisingly old Tiamat. If one is into the Old School aspect it will be a neat split to check out.
