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

If you have read our first issue, you probably already recognized the bandname as there is a positive demo review as well as a lengthy interview (most credits go to Gabriel of Nihilistic Holocaust distro/zine) with these guys as content in our debut issue. In the interview the band stated “”It was very important to us when we started this band that we not place any high aspirations on it. We just wanted to crank out a demo and see what happened.” Well, here you go, this happened! A debut album and a lot of reviews and recognition. The musical direction is still the same Bolt Thrower / Asphyx (slower Doom parts, Martin van Drunen-vocals) alike Old School Death Metal with SweDeath riffs and d-beat influences. The groove is there, as well as some howling guitar leads At the end the three tracks of the “Dragged Down to Hell”-demo are kicking in to complete this fine Old School Death Metal debut. (Ricardo)
