Excarnated Entity - Mass Grave Horizon

Com o fim de Ash Borer alguns dos musicos continuam com os seus antigos projetos ou seguem novos caminhos como é o caso com Excarnated Entity que editam brevemente o seu primeiro album...em baixo o primeiro avanço e a demo em destaque... "NUCLEAR WINTER RECORDS is proud to present EXCARNATED ENTITY's highly anticipated debut album, Mass Grave Horizon, on CD, vinyl LP, and cassette tape formats. EXCARNATED ENTITY was stillborn under lifeless skies in the year 2018. Originally hailing from Seattle, the quartet features current and former members of Anhedonist and Triumvir Foul. From the beginning, EXCARNATED ENTITY's aim has been to deliver desolate yet powerful death metal doom. They self-released their Stillborn in Ash demo in May 2019, which quickly caught the attention of various labels. It immediately got reissued on tape by Extremely Rotten Productions, followed by vinyl and CD reissues on NUCLEAR WINTER with new artwork/design and remixed audio. In mid-2020, EXCARNATED ENTITY relocated to Portland, Oregon and underwent a handful of lineup changes before reaching their current formation. With the new lineup in place, work on their debut album was finally completed. Mass Grave Horizon paints a hopeless vision of the future, drearily dredging death metal's darkest depths and locating majestically miserable doom among those ominously bubbling landscapes. Following a two minute instrumental introduction, EXCARNATED ENTITY kick in with a classic downtuned death metal surge before gutting its underbelly, revealing the morose melodicism of earliest My Dying Bride and Paradise Lost. As the eight-song/44-minute album plays on, its attendant song titles vividly illustrate said vision - "Carcinogen Shroud," "Corridor of Flame," and "The Butcher's Pulpit" among them - and one can further detect shades of Trouble, Cathedral, Solitude Aeturnus, and even Lycia lurking within those ruins. It's a massively dense-yet-spacious sound, and the quartet's songwriting suitably incorporates slow twists of the knife, but always in a deliberate and linear fashion. And, come climactic closer "Gallery of Defeat," your fate is sealed and your soul spent...and EXCARNATED ENTITY stand stoic, unmoved and unmovable. " Mass Grave Horizon Stillborn in Ash (demo)

Adversum - Vama Marga

" “Vama Marga” speaks in tongues with doomish, blazing and epic soundscapes to the infernal regions of the heart. ADVERSVM’s magnum opus to date invokes 10 anthems of left-hand-path apotheosis, Nietzscheism and traditional Satanic power. Creeping with shadowy cold darkness, atmospheric interludes collide with utterly crushing and mesmerizing death / doom metal. “Vama Marga” is an atmospheric journey from slow depths to raging fires and back into the icy abyss of the soul. Witness ADVERSVM’s Apocalyptic Awakening!"

Sektarism - Et Facta Est Lux

"Just like our previous works, a dynamic of improvisation remains at the core of our creative endeavors. The process has been enriched by numerous additions of instruments and sounds, brought by the fresh blood that has joined our congregation as well as this unique place that is the Kerwax studio. The sound palette of Sektarism has thus evolved, heaviness being still at the heart of the orchestration. “Et Facta Est Lux” continues our work with a sense of greater maturity and mastery while retaining that element of insecurity and urgency that is inseparable from the context of improvised live recordings. Some will find light in it, while others will find darkness. For us, it is the very essence of who we are. This work is the result of hard labor and has been born out of pain. For without that, can we truly speak of Art?"

Reverence to Paroxysm - Lux Morte

"Forming in 2020 and with a split and live album already under their belts, Mexico City’s Reverence to Paroxysm are unveiling their debut album “Lux Morte” via Me Saco Un Ojo Records and Dark Descent Records Taking a viciously old school approach with disgusting riffs contorting upon pulverising drums, this macabre descent into decay shall grip you from the very earliest moments. Gurgling vocals spew eldritch slime upon the meaty instrumentals with thick bass lines giving a chunky low end to the sound. Taking all of the most morbidly revolting elements of underground Death Metal, Reverence to Paroxysm bludgeon their way into your skull with fleshy hammer blows. The talents of frontman Antimo Buonnano, previously from Death-Grind legends Disgorge among many others, brings a veteran element to the band, injecting their abhorrent legacy into his latest involvements. The slower moments will drag you through the sepulchral dirt while more upbeat assaults thrash the meat from the bone like a bladed whip of sonic poison. The gloomy dynamics, visceral hooks and brutal execution will mercilessly execute all in their path and you would be a fool not to submit to Reverence to Paroxysm… Eerie soundscapes entwine with putrescent primitive pounding, giving a rancid and yet atmospheric listen. The more you delve into this record, the more subtle nuances you will find scattered throughout which add texture and detail while falling into the monstrously cataclysmic feel of the entire piece very naturally. Although an odiously primal energy is draped across this entire record, there are some very cleverly placed and unusual riffs that give a very unique and interesting feel to things as they cut through thundering bass or the razor sharp cymbal work. The sparse vocals perfect play off of the instrumental parts to give the band this dense, foggy and oppressive sound. If you are of the school of Death Metal lover who needs subterranean riffing, crackling bass, bone-splintering drums and disgusting but varied vocals, then waste no time in checking this record out. So proceed with caution and succumb to the fetid, decaying world that is presented and be soaked in the rotten tapestry Reverence to Paroxysm have woven for you and prepare to be crushed by it."
