Old School MORFIN Death!!!!

3 things I never tire of. Asian porn. Gilbert Gottfrieds voice. And oldschool death metal. Particularly Chuck Schuldiners DEATH and the Pico Rivera , Cali band MORFIN deliver that right up. And to get even more specific the DEATH album Leprosy. I hear that in MORFIN , hear it in the vocals and the way their recordings sound. I listened to some of the live stuff they recorded and even that sounded pretty good! And some of their other songs have intros culled from NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET which score alot of points with this old horror hound! And don't FUCK with MORFIN , they look like a street gang circa 1985 from my old neighborhood! Check out their facebook and reverbnation for some of their music and youtube of course , and hell , if you live near them have them play your next backyard shindig!! And scream out VAGINA or CLITORIS in your best oldschool Death Metal growl!! For me , please. -arty

Cali Death/Thrash EXTINCTION!!!

The world needs a blast of the EXTINCTION shotgun and give them both barrels! I WILL get a tat of EXTINCTIONS band logo! It is one of the coolest logos I've seen and I've seen alot of cool logos lately , and a tattoo of the word EXTINCTION will get sluts all hot and wet as you well know! From Northridge , Cali , EXTINCTION play some ripping oldschool infected headbangin' fistpumpin' Thrash with some good deathlike screams and some beyond the grave growled vocals and have cool song titles like 'My Axe Of Torture' , 'Drowned In Human Waste' , and 'Skull Island' , which is the name of their e.p. that you can download for free on facebook! Free Metal! EXTINCTION is a good band and I'm just doing my part to make way for the unstoppable Thrash Wave rolling over us all! -arty

SADUS - Out For Blood cd

Ever bleed out of your belly button? Don't think anyone would want that blood! this cd is great. The Sadudes are Metal Masters at this point in their career and know how to craft great music. O.F.B does not contain the snake strike speed of Chemical exposure or Swallowed In Black but they have not sacrificed any of the pissed off ferocity they've always possessed. They've gotten heavier and incorporate some synthesizers to great effectiveness and when they do get fast it's just as powerful as their older material. Metallica and Slayer should be like SADUS. SADUS kept on playing the same type of badass Metal while these other bands experimented , matured , and got fat and lazy with greed. And this is not a proper review of OUT FOR BLOOD , I just got this yesterday and wanted to get down how bad ass it is. The cd booklet has some cool artwork , includes the lyrics , and the cover is a razor sharp band logo blood stained and dripping. Sums it all up. -arty

ABCESS - Tormented cd: My zombie movie soundtrack

I'm such a stoopid fuckin' asshole! I've had this cd for years and I barely ever listened to it! At least I had a little good thinkin' brain matter to buy the fuckin' thing. This is so original , sick ,disgusting , grueling , grave diggin' , heavy ass sloppy Death Metal! With sick , sick ,SICK vocals!! TORMENTED sounds like a great earl 80's zombie movie.I can picture in my head a foggy graveyard and green rotten smiling zombies erupting from the soggy worm ridden earth! It's slow creepy crawly Doom Death but also fast crusty deathgrind! TORMENTED contains 13 songs , great abstract cover art and is exactly what I need/want right now. I know ABCESS broke up but I need more ABCESS! brilliant brilliant brilliant!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -arty

THE GOLDEN GODS - ...The Thorny Crown Of Rock And Roll

In 1977 , maybe 76 , THE GOLDEN GODS woulda been big. Opening up for the likes of Skynyrd all the way up to KISS and enjoying all the groupies and drugs they could O.D. on. These days are not kind to Rock n Rollers and these guys ROCK! Rock so hard they only put out this one album and quickly imploded.............as far as I know. But this is good stuff , the vocals really capture that late 70's/early 80's big arena rock vibe and their rock is harder , heavier , and just as real as Motley Crue , Cinderella , skid row , and Dangerous Toys and a bunch of lesser bands I refuse to type out. And I can hear that bass! Sometimes you gotta rock and THE GOLDEN GODS can help you with that. Don't hurt your good stuff. -arty

The Italian thrash band GAME OVER.

GAME OVER man , GAME OVER , launching screaming thrash Metal buzz bombs all the way from Italy! I can see them streaking across a star filled moonless sky filled with glowing green irradiated gas clouds , landing and exploding , ripping into young sexy flesh. I gotta see GAME OVER before they cremate me , I gotta get their album "For Humanity" , where can I get it , where is it? It's not beneath the dead underage hooker I left in the ditch behind my house , I know , I checked three times , maybe itunes snagged it , them dirty fuckers! GAME OVER play some killer U.S. styled U.S. thrash , they've done a demo , a e.p. called "Heavy Damage" , and the "For Humanity" album , and if you check their reverbnation and facebook pg you can hear the one song they posted 'Mountains Of Madness' and it kix fuckin' ass! We gotta get them here in San Antonio , maybe if we promise them tequila and Mexican poontang! They'll eat that shit up! -arty

INGROWING: music to grind and die to.

Got a pocket fulla zombies , my systems OVERloaded with caffeine and I found the cure for my sudden Death/Grind affliction. INGROWING! Don't know a fucking thing about INGROWING 'cept INGROWING exfoliate and excrete perniciously sadistic sound waves causing extreme subconcious terror , flailing of limbs , and new born babies to explode. This sounds great! Excellent production and INGROWING add just the right amount of crusty grind to their concrete and bone fragment mix of Death Metal to give them their own sound in a genre of music overflowing with brutal bands. Like I said I don't know anything about INGROWING , they could be 5 spanish speaking neo nazi midgets , and I'd be fine with that 'cos they fit in with bands like MISERY INDEX , SQUASH BOWELS , DYING FETUS , ROTTEN SOUND , and PUTRID PILE ,and I'm even finer with that! -arty

RAZORMAZE! The Band!

Thrashwave rolls in ; how long can you hold your breath with razorwire slung around your throat while Razormaze bashes your head in with a baseball bat resulting in the 'Slowest Death'? Couldn't get my hands on a hardcopy of "The True Speed Of Metal' , had to settle for a itunes download , and girly , aint that a killer album cover and a wicked band logo?!? Heard some new 'Maze tonite and I'm bleedin' , sweatin' , and cryin' for a new album! When are they comin' to San Antonio , and do all the cute lil' thrash girls know about Razormaze? I think they do. Bring lots of merch , and drugs, beer, booze , slutty nuns , and weapons , but none of the last 5 for me , a sticker will satisfy! Razormaze , fighting for Metal , world War Terminus! -arty

CRIMINAL - 1997 Metal Blade cd review

Now I know what it fucking feels like to be a fucking criminal! I read bad reviews for this cd but I picked it up anyway from amazon for $3.00 , and for that price it is pretty good. I also am of the opinion that if you listen to a piece of music long enough you will like it almost no matter what it is. so I been listening to this Criminal cd trying to drill it into my head , and I think it's working. On this cd Criminal achieve a decently heavy sound and they play it safe and aim low , going for a middle of the road , by the numbers form of thrash/death. And they succeed. It's not too , too terribly fast or blasting but it still is fast and heavy. Vocals are decent as well. And Criminal is still together , I found them here on reverb , and I am surprised they have stuck together and I listened to some of their newer stuff like 'Time Bomb' , and they have improved! I hope they read this. 'Victimized' is my favorite song! -arty

SIEBENBURGEN - Delictum cd

Delictum? I almost destroyed 'em! Ahh , open wide for 70 minutes of Vampire Metal! You get operatic female vocals , synths , big dose of acoustic guitars , all wrapped and slapped around some big ass sounding pseudo black anti thrash no wave goth Metal. I gave this a chance and tried to get into it but besides a handfull of decent riffs I think I'm just gonna burn the last track onto another cd of Metal covers. They do W.A.S.P , 'Fuck Like A Beast' and it's the most exciting most memorable track on the cd. SIEBENBURGEN is pronounced Zee-bin-bur-gan and it means '7 cities'. They called it quits in 2009 and left 5 other albums of ....Vampire Metal. -arty
