Wömit Angel “Under Sadistic Pressure” Review

Wömit Angel “Under Sadistic Pressure” Review
Reveiwed by: Andrew Risch

Finnish metallers Wömit Angel’s latest release is pure Black and punky thrash fury that will make you want to immediately fuck shit up in the pit. With plenty of punk inspired riffing, deprived vocals and a good mix of blasphemous themes played at a breakneck speed, this album is a go to when you need a quick fix of gut stomping metal. Pissed off and extreme, Wömit Angel’s 4th LP is an assault on one’s ear drums and I mean that in a good way. Picking a favorite track proved to be a little difficult. “I Kill Everything I Fuck,” comes off like a dirty anthem that is meant to be sang along with at full volume and full punk swagger. “Slaughterburster,” is a high octane descent into Blackened Thrash madness and “Ominous Bloodletting Ritual,” is not only a fantastic song title but a great track as well that perfectly sums up the feel and sound of Wömit Angel.

To simplify, Under Sadistic Pressure is a fun listen. I know I may be getting some weird looks from the crowd especially when using the “F” word when describing a Black Metal album. But this is a highly energetic punk/thrash journey that even the most elite Black Metal fans will find themselves thrashing to.

 

 

Wömit Angel “Under Sadistic Pressure” is available now in digital, cd, and vinyl format from Reaper Metal Productions.

 BURIER stream GOATOWAREX debut demo at “Decibel” magazine’s website

On October 6th internationally, Goatowarex will release Burier‘s debut demo, simply self-titled, on cassette tape format. And today, Decibel magazine streams the demo in its entirety. Featuring an extremely exclusive interview with the artist behind Burier, stream Burier in its entirety exclusively HERE.Burier hail from the deepest recesses of Australia’s vast, ever-fervent black metal underground. While Burier is the artist’s first public recording, they are no mere neophyte.

On its own merits, Burier is 28 minutes of outsider aural torment. Black metal but almost in an abstracted sense, the soundfield here is defiantly RAW: impossibly distant, almost emaciated, unapologetic but wielded with tactical might. Within this cacophonous cocoon, Burier build mesmeric screeds of strangely melodic atonality, often buttressed by well-placed touches of old-growth organ. Distressed and diseased, these five paeans to pain favorably remind one of the French Black Legion’s medieval ruminations. You can almost feel the cobwebs and smell the mildew; the dungeons are calling…

Even within the underground, Burier lurk beneath it. As such, Goatowarex is proud to align strategic forces, and will endeavor to release the artist’s future recordings. You’ve been warned.

In the leadup to its international release on October 6th, stream Burier‘s Burier in its entirety exclusively HERE, courtesy of Decibel, North America’s only monthly metal magazine. Ordering information can be found HERE. Cover and tracklisting are as follows:

POWER FROM HELL: Devil’s Whorehouse REVIEW

POWER FROM HELL: Devil’s Whorehouse

Reviewed by Andrew Risch

 

Power From Hell’s fifth album is another trip down memory lane with strong influences from the
early 80’s heavy hitters such as Slayer, Venom and Bathory. For over 15 years now these
Brazillian thrashers have had a cult following in underground metal. Not without reason as
Devil’s Whorehouse is a simple yet satisfying album full of headbanging mini anthems and dark
and dreary atmosphere.

The album hits with the track, “Old Metal,” which immediately gives off a Venom vibe with it’s
hybrid feeling of Black/Thrash Metal riffs. Most tracks follow suite with plenty of filthy riffs and
croaking vocals that aren’t meant to be understood. The band also manages to slow things
down with their some atmospheric offerings on the track “Black Forest.” Nodding heavily to the
early Norwegian scene that first made Black Metal so intoxicating. “Long Road to Hell,” closing
the album out perfectly with it’s surprisingly groovy and bluesy feel.

Power From Hell’s Devil’s Whorehouse manages to be a great listen and one that fans for Blackened Thrash Metal will be sure to add
to their collections.

BOTIS – Grand Abominations Review

BOTIS – Grand Abominations Review

Reviewed by Andrew Risch
Philly based quartet Botis, unleash a plague of slick as hell Black Metal that sounds almost too good to be a self produced debut album. Mind you, this isn’t your traditional type of Black Metal either with plenty of Thrash and Melodic Death Metal thrown in for a satisfying and complex listen.

 The opening track fires off with a technical ferocity of killer riffs, pulverizing blast beats and inhuman screams before slowing things down for a brutal midsection piece with some great bass work added to the mix. Taking bits and pieces from across the entire metal spectrum, Botis showcase incredible musicianship on this release. The second track, “Rodente,” is a real standout with it’s trashy almost punk like riffs showcasing how Botis seamlessly blends many different styles into a great and even catchy song. And the eerie chorus at the end of the track? Perfection! “Gullet,” is the longest track here clocking in at a little over 8 minutes, this is an epic track  with a unique piano outro that bears repeated listens. The albums closer, “The Nobel King,” finishes the album up perfectly, not too heavy, not too soft, but enough to leave you wanting more.

 

If this is their first attempt at a recording, Botis proves that they are a band that needs to be on your radar in the years to come.

VERMENT: Death’s Domain Review

VERMENT: Death’s Domain

Reviewed by: Andrew Risch

Hailing from Cincinnati, Ohio, Verment perform some killer modern death metal on their recent
EP, Death’s Domain. Containing hints of blackened thrash over some melodeath groves,
Verment is definitely a band on the rise. Taking cues from bands such as

Dying Fetus,Aborted and the mighty Carcass with their style and sound. What keeps Verment fresh and
exciting is that they are not just purely a Death Metal band adding modern twists and different
musical elements throughout this EP. “Amon’s Wrath,” is a real standout here with it’s punchy
beginning, slick riffs with underlying melodies and nasty vocals that leave you wanting to sing
(growl?) along. “Chemical Indoctrination,” is a pure explosion in ferocity that features some killer
guitar work spiraling feverishly across the fretboard. “Wings of Bone,” will satisfy the most
stubborn Death Metal fan with just a little over 2 minutes of pure brutality.
Already a key player in Cincinnati’s metal scene, Verment are a fantastic live band, proving
once again that extreme metal is alive and well. Death’s Domain proves that this is a band on
the rise and are headed to great things in their future.

Be sure to check out Verment’s Death’s Domain EP in this month’s coffee subscriptions!

BOATMAN’S TOLL: The Fat is in the Fire Review

 

BOATMAN’S TOLL: The Fat is in the Fire Review

Reviewed by: Andrew Risch

Much like the best coffees, Metal is more exciting when it comes hard and bold to the senses in a fresh and refreshing way. Boatman’s Toll is not your standard extreme Metal as they offer a unique,bold flavor of several sub-genres. On their most recent release, you will be treated to plenty of sludgy and doom/thrash laden riffs with just a hint of Death and dash of Black Metal to keep the most hardcore fans interested. 

 

For starters, yes, this is a heavy album. It may not come out of the gates and punch you in the throat but it will leave it’s mark with some great sludgy groves. Corporate Indentured Servitude is an awesome Death n Roll track and the intro to Torn is perfection. Nothing Means Nothing is an aggressive track that will get your head banging if you aren’t too busy singing along. In the Falling Away is easily the sludgiest track on this offering with some killer stoner vibes. Finally to close out the album, Boatman’s Toll have included an impressive cover of Acid Bath’s The Blue. Already an awesome classic, this Chicago based group absolutely nail this brutal beast giving this album the perfect send off. 

The Fat is in the Fire is currently available through Seeing Red Records here.

Definitely a lot of different brutal sounds happening on this album making it worth listening to on repeat

ABSOLVER: Self Offering EP Review

ABSOLVER: Self Offering EP Review

Reviewed by Andrew Risch

Self Offering may be a short EP clocking in less than 20 minutes in length but Absolver manage to stuff in plenty of grim,blackened noise layered together for an (un)pleasant listening experience. This is some serious nasty stuff here guaranteed to haunt you with their unique blend of Black/Noise/Doom Metal signature style.

Much of this EP plays like a haunted dream with bursts of Black Metal that transcends into ambient noise, unconventional synths and strange textures, then punches back through your skull shattering your senses with some truly dark and cold depressing metal. The EP has a very experimental vibe throughout that has to be listened to a few times to get the true experience Absolver are going for here.With each listen you pick up a little more bringing you back again and again.

The band released an official video to go along with the EP’s release that plays through its entirety like a mini movie. The video, just like the music featured, is a nightmare of flashing  images of gore, sexual content and cannibalism in a cold red and black filter. (what more could you want?) Definitely NSFW but well worth checking out as it is the perfect companion to the music.

Check out Absolver in our Coffee Subscriptions this month or purchase the Self Offering EP (and merch) directly, here.
