A CD that compiles the body of work of this old, obscure Swiss Death Metal band. "The Complete Disgoregraphy 1991-2003" features the "The Persistence of Archaic Dogma..." demo (1991), the "In My Darkest Vision..." promo (1991), the "Hybridized Deformity" EP (1992), the "Docta Ignorantia" EP (1993) and the "The Second Side of the Coin..." demo (2003).
To depict DAMNATORY´s own brand of Death Metal ain´t no simple task, for it encapsulates a number of different features and influences, namely the grinding brutality of early Pungent Stench, the fondness for intricacy of early Disharmonic Orchestra, the rawness and the filth of early Grave, and the uncanniness of Mangled Torsos, molding a Death Metal mongrel that bounces back and forth from sick tremolo-picked riffs, to thrashy headbanging sections and to slow, doomish passages.
In 1991, Dark Opera was formed in Lodz, Poland, the very same city in which the band’s compatriots of similar ilk in Pandemonium had united approximately two years earlier. Dark Opera’s first year of existence was plagued by several lineup changes, but it stabilized later that year when the band began to write its own songs and played its first live gig in Lomza. The following April, Dark Opera recorded its first demo, "The Day of Pariah", at Ariadna Studio in Lodz. Originally, this cassette was self-released, but the band was later signed by Carnage Records, who released a second iteration of the tape with alternate artwork. In 1993, the band added a second guitarist and recorded its first and only album, "Calling the Legend", in April of that same year. Like the demo that had preceded it, the album was released by another Polish label, Baron Records, who made it available on cassette format only. Like the aforementioned Pandemonium, Dark Opera’s music was reminiscent of the great Samael and others like Alastis and Taranis, but it also incorporated a somewhat greater influence from both death and doom metal. Nuclear War Now! is proud to be the first to reissue both Dark Opera recordings on vinyl and thus continue its neverending objective of rekindling the great fires once set and then left unattended in the most obscure caverns of the underground.
Cool Death Metal with a certain technical/brutal touch. A band that easily could have toured through USA in the 80ies. Very cool stuff released by the German label Neckbreaker Records.
Limited to 500 handnumbered units. Comes with a sticker.
DEATCULT's classic 2012 demo, originally on tape, now released by Iron Bonehead on a killer LP. Truly depraved, Swiss black/death for devotees of the foulest...
Re-pressing on 2-CD of this only album from ?07 by this US band containing all their recorded stuff from demo, split 7"EP?s and 2 live tracks as bonus.
DEATHRAID was a bunch of thrashers before being a thrash band. DEATHRAID was attitude and liefstyle before being a music style. One DEATHRAID live gig was banned for obscenity. DEATHRAID was outlawed for theft and housebreaking. DEATHRAID changed 3 drummers. DEATHRAID aimed to be the sickest and vilest band in the area. DEATHRAID was influenced by everything extreme and underground. The song ?Lunatic Souls Domain? is short for LSD. DEATHRAID used to spend the cash earnt from gigs into drugs and alcohol, before playing.
Second full length from the Swedish masters now re-released by Trauma Records in a nice digipak.
Includes two bonus tracks from old Demo recordings and also comes with a postcard and a sort of poster.
Primitive Black/Death old-school fucking metal!
The Finnish Death Metal machine from DECAYING strikes back! Since 2010 these 4 guys are beeing active and have left only destroyed landscapes on their musical journey away from the Finnish lakes on their 10 releases so far.
The 5th full lenght studio album "Shells Will Fall" will be released in a lovely vinyl edition via Defying Danger Records. On "Shells Will Fall" DECAYING once again offer an massive album, atmospherically & lyrics primarily geared towards historical wars and destruction. Who can imagine that a band combines the mood of HAIL OF BULLETS or ASPHYX with less doom influence, but with more classic Swedish Death Metal, knows roughly how the Finns sound. But also GRAVE like tones or vocals in the vein of BOLT THROWER are not that far from in the 8 tracks of DECAYING.
The Finnish Death Metal horde DECAYING unleash their fourth album entitled 'To Cross The Line'. Like the previous albums, 'To Cross The Line' is about war, destruction and its consequences. You can expect 8 new blood-licking songs full of heaviness, depression, melody and catchiness. A musical feast for fans of ASPHYX, BOLT THROWER or HAIL OF BULLETS.
The thematically perfectly realized artwork was created by the italian artist Roberto Toderico (he also created amazing art for SINISTER, PESTILENCE, MEFISTO etc.).
Japan's DEFILED have delivered brutal death metal for over 13 years, and their new album 'Towards Inevitable Ruin' honors that solemn tradition. The band buck modern convention and deliver an album devoid of fake edits, effects, and unnatural sounds. Simply stated, 'Towards Inevitable Ruin' is the most authentic and raw representation of DEFILED as they deliver their deathly assault live.
East and West Coast underground Death Metal meet to summon two freshly unearthed abominations for the first time on vinyl!
Originally slated for release in 2014, Deform / Mortuous split 7" will finally be released October 2020 by Carbonized and Dawnbreed Records with an additional Cassette pressing through Unholy Domain. Both bands bring forth two killer tracks of true death metal madness.
This record is dedicated to the memory of our friend, Tim Ninerell...
When you are about to abandon all hope, trust and faith that real DEATH METAL still can be ultimately dark, abhorrent, yelling, filthy, violent, repellent, sinister, driven, revealing, hurting and visionary ... ... then ... the devil will bring the wonder of: SAVAGE MUTINY.
Prolific Japanese grindcore legends UNHOLY GRAVE team up with DEJECTA (members of REPULSION) for this brutal split 7"!!!
FFO: TERRORIZER / REPULSION / BRUTAL TRUTH
TRACKLIST UNHOLY GRAVE: Distressed / Poverty Of Thought / Unspeakable Crime DEJECTA: Shit For Brains / Love You Madly
Heavy, intense, mostly mid-to-fast paced and decrepit old school Death Metal from Germany that has more to offer than just sheer brutality. Recommended!!!
Third full album of this Greek band self-described as "astrogrind". 9 songs of dark and violent mixture of Death Metal, Grindcore and even Black Metal. The concept and aesthetics draw influences from cosmology, astronomy and science fiction literature, as well as the associated sociopolitical and existential repercussions. For fans of CHERUBS, TERRORIZER, REGURGITATE, INSISION with a black metal touch.
"The band exists between dimensions; thematically with their sci-fi influences, but also sonically. It is a balancing act between different worlds of extreme metal. From the brutality of death metal and the volatility of grindcore, to the venomous touch of blackened influences and the attitude of hardcore, Dephosphorus mould these diverse worlds into a fiery result." - CVLT Nation
4th full-length album by cosmic themed concept band DEPHOSPHORUS from Greece. Hailed for a decade now by the international underground scene for their original astrogrind style, a crushing and trippy blend of crust/grind, black/death metal, post-hardcore, noise rock, doom/sludge with psychedelic electronic touches. Includes ex and current members of STRAIGHTHATE, EMBRACE OF THORNS, THOU ART LORD, VACANTFIELD, RAVENCULT... A must have for fans of LEVIATHAN, NEUROSIS, DEAD CONGREGATION, JIGSORE TERROR.
3rd album by this Finnish band that plays a crushingly heavy type of Death Metal with Doom hints and a dark, cryptic & eerie atmosphere inspired by bands like ABHORRENCE (fin), BOLT THROWER, ASPHYX, DERKETA, RIPPIKOULU, GRAVE, INCANTATION, ROTTREVORE... and in general getting inspiration from 90's Death Metal.
"The Absents Presence" by DEVIUS is the fourth Traumatic Records release. The album is a conceptual work about human emotions from a existentialist perspective, dealing primarily with philosophical and psychological reflections on solitude, the loss of someone close, suicide and departure.
8th full length of this legendary Northamerican Death machine!
This album is a complete old-school Death Metal slab in the face of every maniac. Absolute outstanding!
Mini-album featuring 3 brand new songs, an instrumental and a bonus cover of an Incantation classic - published by Terror From Hell records on CD and by Lycanthropic Chants on tape.
Low-end, suffocating, multiple vocals blend of aggressive high paced death metal and down-tempo doom death sections, yet with a touch of gloom.
