Gory Blister- Art Bleeds

Gory Blister- Art bleeds Yontar o meter: 90/ 100

okay yea i know their name is dumb. let's just get that out of the way. I agree with you. But man you want to talk about technical death metal in the vain of death and atheist. This stuff just reeks of early death metal, and I love the reekage. Brilliantly executed riffs, catchy, and still mighty heavy. It's pretty similar to death, but with more of a thrash influence, and the occasional dismember-ish style section, and a good deal more progressive. The musicianship is utterly remarkable, and for any musician or fan of wickedly good chops this a real must have in the metal realm. So, it's alot like a more progressive death with cleaned up modern production, but it's very very very tight, and very well done.

Kekal- 1000 thoughts of violence

Kekal- 1000 thoughts of violence, yontar o meter: 90/100

Ok so combine years of black metal experience, avant garde tangents, and industrial/electronic music and you have kekal. One of the most unique bands i know of and from indonesia. this really is great stuff and if you have never heard it pick it up. Loads of atmosphere (but very well done, and with good production values), really cool progressive songwriting, and general uniqueness make this a win in every way for me. seriously, go find it.
