"Through light descended onto flesh, so I percieve the life of a lazy scumbag. My experience will teach me what I ought not to be, if the eternal loop of dimensional transmutations is the universal law of education and not just condemnation. To my eyes, I am sentenced, but are these really my eyes? Shall my future materialization be part of another perspective? I don't want the answer nor the experience. I have seen enough of this world. I shall return to warn myself: 'not even lifeless living creatures, not even abstract forms of travelers... not even death itself, need to know what lays on that meaningless span of space and time on such a vague, distorted, repellent and odouring planet' , the thing is... I have already failed" - by schizophedeath - entitled: The Fake Traveler. ... Well new flyers will be put on the left of the website; I also attached a new list of trustful maniacs around the globe on the 'legions' section. For now I am only selecting devotees not from bands specifically but labels and fanzines, which in my mind, are the base for a healthy underground circle. If you are in touch with me and don't find yourself on the list, throw me an email, not a stone! JA! What was my criteria for selecting these individuals? Anyone willing to reply a letter, an email and avoiding socialnetworking will make it on the list, that's it. Ask for removal otherwise. Assholes not replying even emails or only establishing communication through webstores or socialnetshit are not recognized by myself as trustful, just easymoneymakers that must be ignored. CHACINA(Bra) - The Blind Man's Buff demo 1990. Released by Sodomistic Rituals and Third Holocaust of Evil on tape. Spectacular tape, this band was totally unknown to me, they come from Amazonas, pretty crazy, I thought there were only ancient civilzations there and not deathrashers ha! Well, this starts with a mediocre riff mimicking METALLICA(US) , which drew my attention because flyer's says "Deathrash band" and guess what, it fades out immediately, they explode into deathrash ferocity few seconds later in the very vein of AGRESSOR(Bra) 's "Kill or Die" with a production that takes you to KRUGER(Rus) 's 1991 demo. I was not expecting such a great demo. This includes 4 tracks plus a BLACK SABBATH(UK) 's cover , "War Pigs" , holy fuk totally weird to hear this cover with clean vox ha! In the end, terrific brazilian desecration! Recommended! Groß phil und steff, vielen Dank für die Tape! III KATEGORIJA(Yug) - Manijak Demo 1985, dubbed tape. This is a fast HC with some Thrash Metal influences. Violent, with an atypical sound on solos, but shares similarities, in sound, with the bands that I am mentioning below. Really good one and MOTORHEAD(UK) influences can be identified here and there. Their last track entitled like the demo, is in the vein of NAPALM DEATH(UK). I recommend this one for anyone curious. I wanted to start on this one for the yugoslavian attack relistenings. III KATEGORIJA(Yug) - xx.08.1986 Demo, This is their second demo with a cleaner sound, great great great solos and improved vox on deep screams. They turned a little bit more into the Metal sphere with more double kick drumming and rock n roll guitars ala MOTORHEAD so the evolution ends up being quite expected. Unluckily this does not have more tracks, it is a pretty good demo. DISTRESS(Yug) - 1985 demo, dubbed tape. Another super killer HC band from this place. Short demo with three tracks but killer ones, begins with the impressive "Igdaja Idjudsteih" and gets followed by "Sutra" , check the killer snare double hit and the guitar sounds at the end, or distorted bass don't know, amazing! this is a remarkable demo. "Posiednjirat" , the last one, even sounds like "Torturadores" from ACIDO(Ury) ! Highly recommended project! SLOD (Yug) - demo 1986 , dubbed tape. This is a deathrash metal project with some black metal environment but totally chaotic almost in the borders of noisy-looping-insanity on guitars with an spectacular macabre vocalist, at some points I think he ressembles to Sakevi from GISM(Jpn) . This is a pretty obscure demo except from last track which is weird as fuk, also "Qué Velocidad" from ATOXXXICO(Mex) rings the bell there. In general terms a pretty excellent demo, with its own identity. May be it could be linked to "Deo Optimo Maximo" from SCARECROW(Pol) . The only drawback I pereceive is the length of the tracks, too short, but killer anyway. Highly recommended. BESTIAL DEATH(Isr) - Suicide of the Immortal demo 1986, RE 2011 on tape by Israhellbanger Records. Excellent desecration of this spectacular demo. Probably the only band I know from this place apart from SALEM(Isr) (the artwork was done by Salem's guitarrist and just remember I never added their demos on my wishlist). What to expect on this? Pure deathrashing puke , this is one of the first recordings I ever listened to when digging chronologically, I lost my opportunity to buy this one on argentina the first time I played there, but almost a decade after that, this was put on my lifepath so I was excited about getting it back then. Its almost-raw sound and distortion makes you think of the ultrametal recordings from Colombia, but the outstanding brutal vocals and the midtempo drumming deliver the brazilian approach; under the surface I think this was mainly influenced by SODOM(Ger) . All tracks kill but b-side with "Nuclear Hell" and "Bestial Death" is an splendid closure, hugely recommended! VOIDD(Jpn) - Premonatry Inscription demo 1990, RE 2022 by Zzooouhh Records. This is a japanese band worshiping swedish Death Metal with some japanese own style ala TRANSGRESSOR(Jpn) . I don't enjoy the vocalist tune, despite that, it does count on some weird phrases, overall the recording is good. For those needing their daily dosis of death metal, I don't find it remarkable, it's ok for historical purposes. VOIDD(Jpn) - Human Atrocity demo 1991, side B of the aforementioned LP. This begins with an awful track, then follows the 90s DM vein. Few tracks are interesting, again, nothing remarkable. DVC(US) - Descendant Upheaval 1989 LP. RE by Steamhammer. This is an spectacular hidden project. Of course is not hidden among archeodeathrashers but for those unknowing the project, this is a Death Metal with an splitted vein, among their technical aspects, be it weird as fuk riffs, drummings, etc... plus a macabre vocalist ala Kingsly Folley from DECEASED(US), Bareny Greenway from BENEDICTION(UK), NAPALM DEATH(US) or even MARTIRE(AUS) in the most saned version of their vocalist, if that could be in some ways possible ha! I think of NOKTURNEL(US), FATAL(US) too and not only on vox but also due to some technical aspects ; the guitar tune comes from UK, you cannot avoid thinking of "In battle there is no Law" by BOLT THROWER(UK) , and yes SACRILEGE(UK) , you can perceive that vibe, groove, feeling and detailed arrangements poping around. Even though I thought this could differ far from what they've done for their previously released demo, it does not, it's partly a clone with few differences on the recording and tracklist. This indeeds needs to be checked by any deather around, is not optional! CARAS DE HAMBRE(Pan) - Anarquía para todos 1989 (Anarchy for everbody), dubbed tape. Since the vocalist sounded as one of the most rebels on the "Ruidos de la calle" 2021 documentary I recently watched (check bellow its review), I decided to go for this an check it out. What you can hear on this total-in-your-face recording is a mixture of metallic sounds on guitars including the crunchy bass sound ala "Scum" from NAPALM DEATH(UK) , so you end up with an HC-Punk-Thrash-Grindcore mixture sung in Spanish with total rebel attitude, the name of this release says it all, totally in my line, besides the tracks and chorus also reflect that, best tracks are "Buscando en la vida un modo de ser" , "Fuerza Pública", "Poder Subversibo", "Brutalidad Policia-k" , "Cuando la Violencia acabe con Nosotros" which reminded me of ATOXXXICO(Mex) , "Anarquía para todos" happens to have some 200 MUERTOS(Par) and due to its lyrics I could not avoid thinking of ANARKIA(Chl) . Hugely recommended for those who think for themselves in a non-selfishfukway! DISARM(Jpn) - After the D 1988 demo, I don't have it under my possession. What do you know? I just came across with this by chance on the internet and realised this was never an American band but a Japanese one and the demo wasn't entitled "After the Dead" but in the way I wrote it now. Holly hell; I would never get this one way of the other if this was totally mistaken... fuk man, after more than a decade I still look for this and if someone is willing to help me, I will be more than grateful. Now that I happen to be able to check the full EP online, I realised it's much in the HC vein and indeed, If I look at it retrospectively, it sounds totally japanase, mostly because of the way it's screamed, some tracks are totally deathrash but some others do not, that's probably why this band was spread around as a b-side . Anyway, this is a fukin killer B-SIDE recording but the A-side is not that bad either, if you are also into HC this is a killer recording. I still cannot processes this had another side! JA! If you already read my site, you know I was/am obssessed with this side, so you must try to get this as much as I have been doing it! RUIDO EN LAS CALLES(Pan) - Panamenian Scene 2021 documentary. This is spectacularly done, I thought "El Diablo Nació en Medellin" from Colombian Ultra Metal scene was spectacular, but this goes even beyond (anyway the colombian one is still spectacular ha ha! ). This documentary exposes tons of individuals who helped to develop the underground scene, overall it highlights the absolutely interesting cultural aspects of their society as a whole, they seem to be astonishingly helpful and kind to each other, you can definitely visualize an undeground brotherhood, something most countries lack. As one desperately expected, yes, it counts on a great amount of stories from the beginnings of this trip. I have no more words to express my ideas, this is a total must and an entry point for those unknowing projects from there. Thank you so much my old argentinian batard friend carlos for this killer recommendation! MORBID FAITH (Ger) - issue #20 it's now out! For those sick of the media, this is the anti-media, we don't need instant access to everything in the world, we set our own pace to properly support underground dwellers from every corner on the earth. The IRON LEGION is here.
