Splits & Comp CD reviews - O

OBSCURE INFINITY 4-way Split Tape 2004 NIHILISTIC HOLOCAUST. This is rare to get an ear on a comp tape by now! This consists actually of three french Demo bands and the almighty DARKLORD's first Demo CD "By the Force Of Sacred Magic Rites" from Australia which I got the original for years now, …I'd rather ask myself why Gab chose this band's old recording to fill the 60mn tape… Opening act is CARMINA but unfortunately my dubbed copy has a real bad crappy waving sound, anyway they're pretty much interesting as they remind me of newer Immolation/Morbid Angel a lot: BUY OR DIE! c/o MICKAEL CLERGEOT, 2 AVE. DU PRESIDENT WILSON, 78520 LIMAY FRANCE. http://carminagrind.free.fr Then comes AMETHYSTE and their Gorguts/Morbid Angel-esque Death Metal, three tracks that shows this band is ready to rush on the underground like their masters as they already left ten years of existence behind them and are doing great solos, this is the Promo 2003 that they offered here, simply damn heavily professional & excellent: BUY OR DIE!!! c/o PAT, 2 RUE CEZANNE, 35 RESIDENCE BLERIOT, 62480 LE PORTEL FRANCE. www.amethyste.zik.mu Third strike is called ATROPHY and a great skilled brutality emanates from the first notes, they can recall sometimes Cryptopsy from the "None So Vile" epoch but with more original vibes and definitely more technical and with weird solos & structures, something really uncommon, I'm impressed!! This band rules, it might probably be the most original from this brutal package, and maybe from France! So much breaks & changes twists & turns... incredible revelation, I'm addicted! Skilfulness & abilities are sometimes making the difference, fans of Intervalle Bizarre and Alienation Mental might rejoice with ATROPHY: BUY OR DIE!!! c/o FREDERIC DEVESA, 131 PLACE ST-LEGER, 73000 CHAMBERY FRANCE. www.atrophy.free.fr At last DARKLORD from Australia ends the tape with their cultissim obscure brutality of ten years of age and I'm really a huge fan of this Demo having an old cavernous sound like their country mate Disembowelment (rip!) filled with unholy solos from Hell and infernal drum-machine deathvastation, low pitched growls of darkness... Simply something that newer fans can't get into and this of course rules! The band has also an album out by now and rather different from what they were doing on this Demo, so if you care: PO BOX 869, GLENELG, 5045 SOUTH AUSTRALIA. http://darklordfff.tripod.com
