This band from Singapore started out as an old style Black Metal band in the vein of Hellhammer/Celtic Frost. But along the way they decided they preferred playing brutal Death Metal.
Judging by this demo, it has been a good decision. The Death/Grind is brutal, very straight forward, with a low and muddy sound and deep grunts. The songs do sound a bit the same, but since the demo only lasts for twenty minutes, it’s too short to make it boring. It’s not all too original, but it has this nostalgic underground Death Metal feeling you can hear on demos from about ten years ago.
If you wish that time would revive, then Vrykolakas is definitely worth checking out.
