"A solo project started in 2007, Gore Obsessed play raw death/goregrind inspired by Impetigo, Haemorrhage, Rompeprop, Extreme Noise Terror, NunSlaughter, Autopsy and other classic death/grind bands. Along with an unnatural obsession with the following albums:
Impetigo - 'Horror of the Zombies'
Haemorrhage - 'Morgue Sweet Home'
Extreme Noise Terror - 'Damage 381'
And a love for various types of horror movies I decided to crate some of my own musical abortions.
The lyrics are inspired by sick & perverted tales of morbid horror, italian cannibal and zombie films, obscure horror and slasher films, exploitation and grindhouse... just your usual dose of sick."

Cerebrum - Spectral Extravagance (3 song promo)

Promo, Lacerated Enemy Records
2009



















01. Beyond Imagination
02. Pattern Of Fear
03. Thorns Of Weakness

Origin: Greece
Genre: Progressive/Technical Death Metal

These guys seem to be heavily influenced by Watchtower and thus this debut full length by them is full of shifting riff patterns, jazz breakdowns and some great drumming courtesy of George Kollias (Nile). On a casual listen it might appear that there is not much happening in the songs but that's only because the songs unfold in a laid back manner instead of going at a frantic pace. The delivery of the music brings Wayd to mind, as they have a similar jazz influenced feel without cramming hundred notes into each second. But when the need arises there are some shredding solos scattered around the album along with lots of melodic leads, again emphasizing on the variation being offered. One negative thing about Spectral Extravagance is the slightly clickety-click plastic sounding double pedal sound. I guess that must have been done on purpose since the drums were recorded at George's own personal studio, but I do prefer the double bass to have some thud. Overall, this album offers 43 mins of really enjoyable progressive/technical death metal and it has been growing on me continuously over the last few days. Highly recommended!

The download package contains 3 songs taken from the album.

Knifed - Foundations (Demo)

2009



Tracklist:
1. War Criminal
2. Antagonist
3. Violencia
4. No Exit
5. Isolation
6. You're A Lost Cause
7. Conclusions

Origin: Israel
Genre: Grindcore

It's promoting bands like Knifed that makes us glad of the new direction DMI has taken. I wasn't expecting much when I decided to check out only the first track, but once it started, I couldn't care to stop till the entire demo played out. Grindcore isn't really my cup of tea, but these guys have succeeded in impressing me with their style. Production, too, is of first-rate quality. You'd be missing a chance to try a great new band if you didn't download this!

Thanks to the band member Aviv Gozlan for sending this demo to us.

Death By Dawn - Unleash Hell (Demo 2009)

Demo, self
2009



















01. The Great Crusade
02. Righteous
03. Walk With The Dead
04. Unleash Hell

Origin: Germany
Genre: Death/Thrash

This demo contains 4 tracks of aggressive in-your-face death-thrash. If you like stuff like Defleshed then this should be right up your alley. There is a lot happening in the riffs department, and most of it is quite fast! But they also know when to slow down and create some catchy hooks like in 'Walk With The Dead'. Martin van Drunen (Asphyx, Hail of Bullets etc) used to be in this band but left recently in order to focus on Hail of Bullets and Jan from Depravity has taken his place in the vocalist's spot (this demo features Jan on vocals). Very enjoyable stuff, check them out now!

Nableena - PROMO

01. Unknown Visibles.mp3
02. Filth.mp3
03. Fading Selves.mp3

Origin: Portugal
Genre: Death/Doom Metal/Ambient

Nableena was founded January 13, 2003. Altough it has been a Metal band since the beginning, Nableena did not persue any specific musical style. As the result of the most different influences, the band's main objective has been an harmonious alliance of several Metal streams with World Music arrangements, through the use of various acoustic instruments and samples integration. Therefore, Nableena's songs are often associated with styles like Death Metal, Doom, Alternative and Swedish Death Metal, incorporating unexpected flavours of Middle East music, boasted by a vocal duet ranging from melancolic singing to raging gutural screaming. In 2006 Nableena won a second position in a regional Metal bands contest. Since that time, it has been present in many important venues, greatly contributing to the widening of the azorean Metal scene. Nableena is now recording its first full audio compilation, in order to praise the 6 years of the bands hard work and dedication to Metal.

Superstition - Mirrors of Suffering

Demo, self
2009



















01. Triumph Of Deceased
02. Unforgotten Eyes
03. Apparition of Annihilation

Origin: Croatia
Genre: Death Metal
Bitrate: 320 kbps

From their myspace: "The band was formed in winter 2008 by two founding members Vedran (Guitar) and Emanuel (drums). Our goal with the band was to create some Old School Death Metal and show to the scene that extreme metal is still breathing in our town. Soon after the birth of Superstition, the band was baptized with blood of a new memeber Vilim (Guitar). We started to rehearse some Morbid Angel and Cannibal Corpse songs, but also focusing on our own material and sound! Few months later after Vilim joined, the line-up of the band was completed with Ivan (Bass) and Elvis (vocals). The band started to rehearse with full line-up, and everything was perfect, so at the beginning of 2009, Superstition entered studio to record first demo called "Mirrors of Suffering". "

Metal Invader's comments: Relentless blastbeats and fast picked tremolo riffing abounds on this demo. Im quite impressed with the drumming and I hope these guys get a chance to make a full length soon, would surely like to check it out.

Depravity - Litanies For The World To Suffer

Full Length, self
2009




















01. The Sound of Inevitable
02. Hisabetsu Buraku
03. Decay In Embryo
04. Moshing Corpses
05. On Blood Drenched Oceans of Sand
06. Maelstrom Misanthropy
07. To Feed Upon The Innocent
08. Monster Island Crusade
09. Catering The Dead
10. Burning Pit of Isolation
11. Exit to Extinction

Origin: Germany
Genre: Death Metal

So here it is, the new full length album of Depravity, who have graciously allowed it to be uploaded in its entirety. Excluding the intro and outro, this contains 9 tracks of thrash-tinged death metal. As mentioned in the description of the promo taken from the same album, the music is midpaced to fast death metal with plenty of catchy riffs thrown in. The main focus here is definitely on creating catchy death metal anthems rather than focusing on speed or brutality. The deep throated growls along with some blackmetal type snarling in the background complement the music perfectly and some well placed double pedal pummeling propels the songs forward at key moments. My favourite songs have to be 'On Blood Drenched Oceans of Sand' for its majestic atmosphere, 'Maelstrom Misanthropy' for making me air-guitar like crazy and 'Burning Pit of Isolation' for a bucketful load of great riffs. Also included in the package is a high quality video of 'Maelstrom Misanthropy', making this an absolute must-download.

Face Of Ruin - Face of Ruin (EP 2008)

4. Extinction's Birth 04:07
Total playing time 15:49

Origin: Milwaukee, USA
Genre: Technical Death/Metalcore
Bitrate: 320kbps

It took me more than a few listens to fully comprehend all that is happening in this 4 song EP. Linear song structures are obviously not favoured by Face of Ruin and these songs are chock full of riff changes, interesting drum patterns and versatile bass lines. I could detect an Atheist influence in the way little melodic leads propped out of nowhere in songs like ‘Bound Driven To The Altar’. Fans of technical death metal must definitely check this out.

Coffinworm’s myspace has a single line description of the band: ‘the arms of chaos grinding you into dust’. And quite true that is. Coffinworm create a crushing wall of death-doom, with thick sludgy riffs swirling around distorted feedback. A foreboding atmosphere is present throughout this demo, mixed with short plucked string interludes. If you like stuff like Eyehategod then chances are you will dig this a lot.

Cover art by Nekron (http://www.nekron-art.com)
Backing vocals on Soil Consumption by Kjartan from Severed Crotch

Origin: Iceland
Genre: Death Metal

Being into death metal for the last 18 years I have to admit I have a special fondness for bands which still play old school style death metal, and this fondness is magnified when the band in question has been formed relatively recently. The magnified fondness is further elevated when I come to know the band’s origin is from an uncommon country such an Iceland. The only other band I’m familiar with from Iceland is Severed Crotch (whom I love) but Gone Postal play a different style. Rather than being very technical, they remind me more of stuff like Blood Red Throne. This album was released in 2008 but as it’s sold out now, the band is making it available online so that more people can listen to it. And more people definitely need to listen to this solid output of death metal!

Total playing time 35:20

Origin: Finland
Genre: Death Grind

From their Myspace: “The band started out as a intention of being pure blasting grindcore insanity, but soon after the band was formed in early 2007, it became apparent that the death metal influence would not shrug itself away. The band ultimately combines the brutality of Death metal and the speed of grindcore with adding elements of savage black metal. The emphasis is definitely on the blastbeat, but the band still maintain dynamics to keep their songs interesting. Today, Blastanus stands out as a monolith of modern extreme technical-deathgrind with ranging influences appealing for the fans of The Dillinger Escape Plan, Origin, Hate Eternal, Cephalic Carnage and Rotten Sound.”

Metal Invader’s comments: The above description taken from the band’s myspace is quite accurate as this album contains of 16 tracks that show their proficiency in creating fast and furious grind with a healthy dose of Origin styled sweeping and Cephalic Carnage induced psychedelic passages like in ‘Scam’. A strong effort for a debut album and no doubt they are talented enough to make a big name for themselves in the future. By the way, the band shares 2 members with Abhordium (featured here earlier) and both these bands should be checked out!

01. Hisabetsu Buraku
02. Maelstrom Misanthropy
03. On Blood Drenched Oceans of Sand

Origin: Germany
Genre: Death Metal
Bitrate: 320 kbps

This 3 song promo is taken from their full length entitled 'Litanies For The World To Suffer' which has been just released by the band is available for online purchase. The music concists of midpaced to fast death metal with some very catchy riffs which have quite a middle-eastern feel at times. In fact the second song starts off with a very Nile-like intro before charging headfirst into a barrage of crunchy riffs. The songwriting skills on display here are definitely impressive with every song having memorable moments which make you want to listen to them again and again. Also of note is the awesome sound, the guitars sound heavy without losing the crunch. Highly Recommended!

From their Myspace: "The biggest influence on Tectum music was made by old monsters Paradise Lost, Crematory, Godgory, Novembers Doom, Agalloch. Music contains clean vocals distinctive in Paradise Lost, My Dying Bride, Tiamat and growl, typical for death-doom. The band is trying not to put itself into the borders of a certain style and is experimenting with sound and pace of play."

Metal Invader's comments: Great sound and quite interesting music. Nothing is hurried here, songs unfold at their own pace and there are enough variations within the songs to keep things interesting. I especially must mention the song 'Rising The Dead' for its great My Dying Bride kindof feel. some Recommended for those into death-doom.

Origin: Germany
Genre: Death Metal
Resolution: 450x360 (avc1)

Sinners Bleed's first album 'From Womb To Tomb' took just a few listens before it became one of my favourite death metal albums of 2004. After a long break, they are back to prepare for their sophomore album and this track has been released as a promo for the new album. This track has all the trademarks of the Sinners Bleed sound I loved, intelligent thrashy death metal with lots of tempo changes as well as straightforward aggression. Needless to say, check them out!
