SACRED HATE - Innocent Dead Child

Links: Myspace Website

i guess opinion will be devided on if you like this band or not.but i really dig this band.so sacred hate is so-called death core maybe and they are from france which is well-known as good beatdown hard core scene.but i think the band has something more than 'death core'. the band plays some metal core-like riffs and some straightfoward grinding parts.and to add to that,theres occasional beatdowns. and my most intrest is vocals style!!! they use squeals remind me of waking the cadaver and not only for that,they use some normal hard core vocals.the combination of vocals work great!!! this band appeals to both fans of Brutal death and Hard core!! they play pretty new thing and its good blend of beat down hard core and Guttural slamming brutality!!!!

Sewaged - Devourment of Redisgorged Putrid Rectal Skin

Links: Myspace Website

what bands first come to mind when you think about israel? i'll tell you one band you should be thinking about and that's sewaged. there one of the sickest Israeli bands around and you would be amazed by how they mix slams and grooves with a bit of the technical stuff, sadly they only have one song on their myspace profile. the song title is "Devourment of redisgorged putrid rectal skin" it was recorded in 2002, with the first drummer "nir doliner" (he's also in lehavoth, whoreXcore and ex-leng t'che) according to their myspace profile their influences are devourment and disgorge but they sound more cleaner to me than those bands but I can see that they have a lot of potential and can eventually create their own style with influences from devourment and disgorge yaron the vocalist spews forth gutturals that will surely impress listeners and he adds more brutality and originality to the band as well and they go nicely with jash the guitarists groovy and fast paced riffs. I talk to jash personally through e-mails and he is a cool dude and one of people leading Israels scene.(he also has one man porn gore grind band named absoranie bogom) Israel's scene has been producing newer bands like cuntmageddon and sewaged that sound sick as fuck and push the envelope a far as slamming styled bands go. sewaged along with cuntmageddon demonstarte that israel is one of the better countries producting slam-oriented bands so if slams and grooves are your thing then sewaged wont let you down so keep an eye out and watch this band. /Seiji

Sick- Exsanguination Through Mutilation

Links: Myspace Website

Not only are the members of this band some of the coolest motherfuckers I've ever met, they're probably some of the most dedicated guys in the brutal underground. I've said it a million times, but just in case nobody knows, they couldn't have come up with a better name to fit their band. And come on...Marco/bass even did the cover art! There's an absolutely crushing guitar tone to this shit. Drums have the raw "no trigger" sound, and boy do they bash throughout. The overall mix is a little raw, but the perfect mix of raw brutality with enough clearness to tell exactly what's going on. Mainly due to no gay technical parts. They do get fast, but they do it well. It deffinately builds up just to knock you right on your ass again and again with nasty low end crunching chuggs. Vocals are relentless and fucking gurgled to top notch perfection. Nice and low. And get this... he's 16 years old. Fucking unreal! What else more do you need to know? Get this shit and listen to it over and over!!!!!! ~Brian/Artery Eruption

Sluts - Fondle 'em demo

some friends introduced me to sluts so i've started to listen to them and the band fascinates me a lot, this band is categorized as goregrind but there not your typical goregrind band so first off i want mention dana the vocalist he was in retch as a vocalist at one time and his vocals are very deep and low gutturals and thanks to his vocals the band reminds me of retch but the music itself is different though. the songs are mostly constructed with grind parts and grooves and the groove parts are so catchy they really make you feel like going crazy and moshing. i wanna call their sound drug induced groove grind but i heard that a lot of people have said the band reminded them of Ahumado Granujo and I don't know if that's true or not but what i can say is that sluts is more diverse, groovy, sick and brutal than that band so if you are into retch and some groovy gore grind bands you must check this band out!

STENCH OF DISMEMBERMENT - Cannibalistic Urge

Links: Myspace Website

The first thing I said after hearing the sample at the begining of this cd and it came in was FUCK YEA!!!! Once again,just like the new ENMITY release,Permeated Records brings us another very good undergound death act.Although these guys are not as heavy as ENMITY they are very brutal.The production on this cd is some of the best I've heard for Underground Death Metal.I really enjoyed everything about this cd.The cover art is brutal as fuck so you already kinda know what to expect.Then you look at the STENCH OF DISMEMBERMENT logo and it insures you that you are in for a brutal beating.Every song on this cd is good.The musicianship these guys show is fucking amazing.They are very together in everything they do.Antonio (Drums) has some of the fastest double bass I have ever heard.The guitar riffs go from old school CANNIBAL CORPSE and SUFFOCATION style to ultra brutal death.I loved this because I'm a huge fan of both.A thing that caught my eye about this band is that I saw they are from Casamassima,Bari.I have never heard of this place or any brutal death metal bands from there,but if they have more bands like this I would love to hear them.I was kinda dissapointed when this cd was over,it was too short.I guess it's better then dragging it out and having long songs.In song 3 on this disc titled "FESTERING VAGINAL DISCHARGE" towards the end the bass went crazy it was pretty cool.Like I said the only bad thing about this cd is that there's only 5 songs.It was a awesome fucking cd!In fact right after listening to this cd I put a sticker of the band's logo on my bass guitar.If you like well played brutal death metal with a good production you will love this cd.With a cd title like "CANNIBALISTIC URGE" you can't go wrong.Pick this shit up mother fuckers!

Stiles - Demo

Links: Myspace Website

i haven't heard of any new bands from michigan recently besides intestinal alien reflux but recently i found this band stiles which is a new band from shane and shaun of intestinal alien reflux so you can expect the same low as fuck slam style that you can hear in intestinal alien reflux. this demo contains two songs named 'killer weed' and 'dick buried in bowels' which are unique song names to say the least but the music itself is more serious like in intestinal alien reflux. shane and shaun both do gutturals and they both use lows while the guitar sounds are groovey and chuggy with the occasional devourment styled riffs in there too. the drum machine sounds really good especially the double bass parts and overall there breakdowns are a lot slower than most bands but that's not a bad thing it works well here. so if you love pretty low and heavy stuff like intestinal alien reflux then give this new band a listen!

Surgery - Demo

Links: Myspace Website

surgery is from florida which as we all know is a holy place for death metal as it's produced a lot of legendary old school bands like for example morbid angel, but surgery is a slam-oriented band so finally florida has some guttural slamming brutality with surgery in the scene. the band consists of two members and mike the vocalist spews some really killer gutturals that sound very nasty and sick! Cianan the guitarist comes through with some slow as fuck slam riffs on a near constant basis. slam after slam pounds your eardrums and even though all the songs are short they all contain tons of fucking slams. most of the other riffs remind me of devourment, artery eruption, cephalotripsy and etc. plus the drum machine adds an even more cold mood to the sound. the harmony they create is so sick and obviously their biggest influence is devourment and the bands logo was even done by none other than mike majewski so you know what to except from surgery. on their myspace profile you can hear a total of 4 songs and they call their sound "sewer guttural slam filed death brutality" which is a nice description if you ask me. if you dig slamming brutality then go check out this band. /Seiji

Surgery - Forecep Foreplay

Links: Myspace Website

this is the new demo from surgery which consists of two songs that are full of slams, if you're a fan of 'zunzun' style slams then you'll love this new stuff for sure. they down tune the guitar sound drastically and as a result the riffs are extremely slow and chunky and chuggy and the songs are constructed mostly from slow parts like slams and breakdowns and even at such a slow pace there's plenty of patterns to keep you interested. mikes vocals are so low and deep they remind me of brian from artery eruption sometimes, he uses both gurgles and gutturals and uses them freely switching between them without missing a beat. he is still young so it'll be nice to watch how his vocals progress in the future, as for the drum machine it's a very simple sound nothing really special but it fits the bands overall sound. if you love devourment and early artery eruption then you will love this demo for sure, there's plenty of slams and breakdowns to fulfill your hunger for brutal music so enjoy!
