CLERIC – Street Date Of Texas Death Horde’s Debut LP Confirmed

Posted in Death Metal, death metal bands, Heavy Metal, Metal, metal music, Music, rock music, rock music news with tags cleric, cleric gratum inferno, Death Metal, death metal albums 2013, metal albums 2013, Metal News, metal odyssey on August 20, 2013 by Metal Odyssey

Dallas Death Metal battalion CLERIC will crush the weak with their disparaging debut LP, Gratum Inferno, through their local cohorts at independent waxmongers Tofu Carnage Records this fall; the label now confirming the street date for the record as September 26th.

Formed by members of Kill the Client, Baring Teeth, and Tyrannosorceress, CLERIC fuses their old-school Death Metal aggressive tendencies here into a relentless attack, which their Gratum Inferno LP attempts to capture in full-force. Recorded by Garry Brents (Kill The Client, Phobia, Noisear) and mastered by Brad Boatright at Audiosiege (From Ashes Rise, Nails, Sleep), Gratum Inferno boasts nearly a half-hour of grating, Stockholm-bred but Americanized death through seven hymns of debauchery, bizarre, haunting and horror-soundtrack elements permeating from deep within its hellish core.

The platter is being pressed on 200-gram, translucent yellow wax with blood-red and milky clear splatter and features heavyweight spot-varnish printed jackets, gold foil-stamped inner-sleeve graphics, was mastered at 45rpm for superior sound quality, and bears insane cover art masterminded by Jason Barnett (Noothgrush, etc.).

Unload Gratum Inferno in its entirety at Cvlt Nation RIGHT HERE:

MASADA “HIDEOUS ROT” – Underground Death Metal To Butcher Your Senses With

Posted in Death Metal, death metal bands, Heavy Metal, Metal, metal music, Music, rock music, rock music news with tags Death Metal, death metal albums 2013, death metal bands, masada, masada hideous rot, metal albums 2013 on August 16, 2013 by Metal Odyssey

3.5 Out Of 5 METAL Fists!

MASADA – Kick-ass name for a Death Metal band? Um… okay. Check. Kick-ass cover artwork for MASADA’s Hideous Rot EP? Check. Kick-ass city where MASADA calls home? It’s Philadelphia and… check. Kick-ass underground Death Metal that MASADA wants to punish ALL of our Metal community’s senses with? Check.

If all you crave is underground Metal and Death Metal is your obsession, MASADA’s bludgeoning wall of sound will no doubt beat your eardrums and any brain cells that are still functioning into a pulp! My Metal brethren, this is MASADA. No smoke or dumb-ass mirrors happening on Hideous Rot; just backwoods, back alley and dark as hell, retro Death Metal.

Fluteotherapy sounds like MASADA kidnapped the legendary Ian Anderson and kept him in a cellar, forcing him to play his flute while surrounded by piles of dead corpses. A macabre listen it is… freaky and psychotic. MASADA came up with it and it truly creeps me out. Cool.

Suffer Mental Decay is my favorite song. A sensational song title it is. It’s brilliant with all of its repulsive vocals and horrid vibes. Very cool. Toxic Unreality when played super fucking loud is like being hit in the face with soaking and scalding hot burlap bags. Aw hell, I’ve never really been hit with soaking and scalding hot burlap; only the description befits my Metal point.

Hideous Cerebral Pulp and Exist To Rot round out this Hideous Rot EP and both songs are like the spinning back kick to your face that you didn’t see coming. Both of these songs rage in their simplicity and this entire EP rages with its middle finger pointing right at expensive production costs. Let every Death Metal garage band know that there is a beacon they can follow to the dark side and it’s the underground disturbance known as MASADA. Metal be thy name.

MASADA HIDEOUS ROT – Track Listing:

Hideous Cerebral Pulp

Fluteotherapy

Exist To Rot

Suffer Mental Decay

Toxic Unreality

For all of you Metal trivia lunatics out there, I looked up the definition of MASADA and here it is:

The site of the ruins of a palace and fortification built by Herod the Great on the southwestern shore of the Dead Sea 1st century BC

ZOMBIEFICATION “At The Caves Of Eternal” – A Catastrophic Album Of Grisly Death Metal

Posted in Death Metal, death metal bands, Heavy Metal, heavy metal bands, Metal, metal music, Music, rock music, rock music news with tags at the caves of eternal album review, Death Metal, death metal bands, metal albums 2013, Metal News, zombiefication on August 3, 2013 by Metal Odyssey

5 Out Of 5 METAL Fists!

ZOMBIEFICATION – On May 14th of this year, At The Caves Of Eternal, from Mexico’s ZOMBIEFICATION, was released in North America, via Pulverised Records. The first moment I caught news of this new ZOMBIEFICATION album’s imminent release, I was psyched-out to the Metal maximum! I’m even more psyched-out, now that I’ve been listening to this new offering of Death Metal from Mexico’s deadliest Metal band.

Last year’s Death Metal gem from ZOMBIEFICATION was (the) Reaper’s Consecration EP and it landed on the Metal Odyssey Best Of list for 2012 Metal albums. At The Caves Of Eternal is guaranteed a position on this year’s list as well. ZOMBIEFICATION has once again created an album that bestows full-blown, evil, mind melting and groove saturated Death Metal.

_______________________________________

ALL 9 songs on At The Caves Of Eternal are on fucking fire with blackened approval from the administrative offices of hell… and I’m not exaggerating, my Metal brethren. ZOMBIEFICATION always seems to set me on the correct path to underground Metal loyalty; for this I’m grateful. ZOMBIEFICATION doesn’t do mathematical bullshit or use smoke and mirrors with their Death Metal; instead, this is Death Metal that reveres the classics of the genre’s past, fused with both extreme and melodic originality that barrels straight into your face with no remorse.

ZOMBIEFICATION already had me convinced they were a Death Metal band to be reckoned with among the entire Metal universe. With At The Caves Of Eternal, ZOMBIEFICATION have illuminated their legendary status, while earning their rightful place as a Death Metal beacon for the Metal underworld. Metal be thy name.

At The Caves Of Eternal – Track Listing:

At The Caves Of Eternal

Disembodied Souls

Soul Collector

In The Mist

Passage Of Darkness

In The Gallery Of Laments

The Crypt

In The Shadowed Garden

Slaves Whisper Your Name

ZOMBIEFICATION:

Mr. Hitchcock – Vocals

Mr. Jacko – Bass

Live Musicians:

REPTILIAN DEATH – Signs With Old School Metal Records

Posted in Death Metal, death metal albums, death metal bands, Heavy Metal, Metal, metal music, Music, rock music, rock music news with tags Death Metal, death metal albums 2013, Metal, metal albums 2013, Metal News, reptilian death on July 26, 2013 by Metal Odyssey

Mumbai-based Death Metal outfit REPTILIAN DEATH has signed with Old School Metal Records for the October 10th release of the band’s second full-length, The Dawn Of Consummation And Emergence.

REPTILIAN DEATH has long existed in the shadows of the Indian metal scene as the side project of Demonic Resurrection frontman, Demonstealer. The band spent their first 12 years making sporadic live appearances and changing line-ups fairly often. During that time, REPTILIAN DEATH had an almost humorous disposition, writing little spoof Metal epics like ‘5 Easy Ways To Murder Someone’ and ‘Nursery Rhymes For Satan’s Children’ while balancing a handful of serious tracks which eventually found themselves on their 2004 debut, Total Annihilation. In 2006, the band’s direction took a turn for the serious with the release of their EP Intestinal Feast on the Defaced And Split album, which also featured Exhumation, Warface and Narsil.

Shortly after the release, the band returned to the shadows until resurfacing in early 2013. The band exploded on the scene and completely metamorphosed into a brand new beast. Fronted by Vinay Venkatesh (Bhaynak Maut), dressed in priestly robes with his face painted half black and half white and backed by a band of masked members REPTILIAN DEATH has moved out of the shadows and into the forefront of the global Metal community. The world will now see The Dawn Of Consummation And Emergence.

More details to come…

Video footage of REPTILIAN DEATH performing at Domination: The Deathfest 2013 is below!

BROKEN HOPE “Omen Of Disease” – To Be Released Via Century Media Worldwide

Posted in Death Metal, death metal bands, Extreme Metal, Heavy Metal, Metal, metal music, Music, rock music, rock music news with tags broken hope, broken hope omen of disease, Death Metal, death metal albums 2013, metal albums 2013, Metal News on July 15, 2013 by Metal Odyssey

6th Studio Album From These Chicago Death Metal Warriors Promises To Be A Killer!

_________________________________

BROKEN HOPE has revealed the title of their 6th studio release as Omen of Disease. The album title, created by chief-lyricist, Jeremy Wagner, is also an actual album track, which marks the first official BROKEN HOPE “title track” since their 1991 debut album, Swamped in Gore.

Jeremy Wagner comments about this upcoming release:

“Some time ago, a festering Death Metal prophecy indicated something sick and brutal was coming back from the dead. The malignant signs became evident when BROKEN HOPE first resurrected from the grave and then went on tour. A more sinister foreboding followed when BROKEN HOPE wrote a new death metal album for the world to hear. Today, I’m a harbinger, here to alert everyone of a ‘Death Metal omen’ that is upon us…I speak of the new BROKEN HOPE album, ‘Omen of Disease.’ The album title itself reeks of a musical offering that is nothing short of gruesome. ‘Omen of Disease’ will be released to infect everyone worldwide this summer. I promise: this death metal album is a most savage, feral, pestilential, and lethal creation. You’ve been warned…” – Jeremy Wagner

Omen of Disease is slated for a worldwide release this year, via Century Media Records. Stay tuned for more details about this new BROKEN HOPE album coming soon!

BELOW, GET BLISTERED BY THE OFFICIAL BROKEN HOPE E.P.K.! METAL BE THY NAME!

ULCERATE – Innovative New Zealand Death Trio Preps Fourth LP For Deployment

Posted in Death Metal, death metal bands, Heavy Metal, Metal, metal music, Music, rock music, rock music news with tags Death Metal, death metal albums 2013, metal albums 2013, Metal News, ulcerate, ulcerate vermis on July 11, 2013 by Metal Odyssey

Boasting an original, inventively dread-inspiring style of audio torture, Auckland, New Zealand-based Death Metal trio ULCERATE has completed the final stages of preparation for the pending release of their fourth horrific masterpiece, and first for Relapse Records.

Since their 2009 debut on Neurotic and two subsequent LPs through Willowtip, ULCERATE has strived to continually hone and contort their Death Metal attack, their sound ever-evolving into harsh new realms of turmoil, melding mechanical and organic elements into their haunting, blast-strewn explosiveness. A forward-thinking Death Metal style citing Hate Eternal, Gorguts and Immolation collides head-on into more dissonant and blackened infiltrations of Deathspell Omega or Portal, forming a monolithic anti-harmonic atrocity.

After signing ULCERATE last year, new label Relapse unveils the info on the band’s newest works as the album nears release late this Summer. After a year of writing and planning, the creation of the record came to fruition in March of this year when the band entered hometown MCA Studios. The nine passages harnessed during these sessions culminates into a nearly fifty-five minute document of the outfit’s most tumultuous craftsmanship yet, entitled Vermis.

Relapse will unleash the album on CD, double LP and digitally, now confirmed for release September 17th in North America, preceded bySeptember 13th in Germany and Benelux, and September 16th in the UK and rest of the world. Preorders have been made available here.

In addition to the title and street dates, today a new visual trailer along with the cover art for Vermis and more has been released. Check it all out now AT THIS LOCATION.

Additional propaganda, hymns and more on Vermis will be announced in the coming weeks in addition to new ULCERATE tour actions for 2013.

Vermis – Track Listing:

1. Odium

2. Vermis

3. Clutching Revulsion

4. Weight of Emptiness

5. Confronting Entropy

6. Fall to Opprobrium

7. The Imperious Weak

8. Cessation

9. Await Rescission

ARMAROTH “False Vision” EP – Is Stone’s METAL Pick Of The Day!

Posted in Death Metal, death metal albums, death metal bands, Heavy Metal, Metal, metal music, Music, rock music, rock music news with tags armaroth, armaroth false vision ep, Death Metal, death metal bands, metal albums 2013, Metal News, underground metal on July 8, 2013 by Metal Odyssey

ARMAROTH – From Kranj, Slovenia cometh the Death Metal carnage of ARMAROTH. This is underground Death Metal to savor and enjoy like an ice-cold 6 pack of ale on a hot Summer’s afternoon or a cold day in Winter… take your Metal pick! ARMAROTH plays their Death Metal in the vein of Six Feet Under and Obituary and seemed to have taken their deathly influence quite well from listening to Death and Cannibal Corpse as well.

Putting our Death Metal icons aside, ARMAROTH come across loud and deadly clear that they are original. With impressive melodic guitars and bone tearing riffs featured, the overall depth of sound from this band is one of total F’n destruction upon its surroundings; therefore I cannot pigeonhole ARMAROTH as only a Melodic Death Metal band. In other Metal words, ARMAROTH plays F’n slash-to-the-throat Death Metal. Very bloody nice, indeed.

After the 1:14 seconds of spoken intro, all Death Metal hell breaks loose from ARMAROTH and their debut False Vision EP! False Vision carries through on what I was (hopefully) anticipating: heavy grooves, scathingly heavy drums with pissed-off and death ridden vocals that are all like a death strike, straight from the gates of hell itself! Hail underground Death Metal… and ARMAROTH is another potent reason why! Metal be thy name.

ARMAROTH:

Filip Košnik – vocals

Klemen Govekar – guitars

Martin Jagodic – guitars

Andrej Gregorc – drums

Dino Rebolj – bass

_____________________________________

From ARMAROTH:

Armaroth is a brutal music machine that dares to deliver an experience beyond the horizons of comfort. The gears started turning in 2008, launching chaos and destruction of the mind, which were incarnated in 2013 as the False Vision EP. The EP’s first listeners have reported severe damage to their perception of the world and of themselves. The machine is honoured and eager to continue its work. So far it has dominated most of its homeland stages and that is only the beginning. Listen and test your truth. Armaroth will see you soon!

FALSE VISION – Track Listing:

False Vision

Modern Man

High

Labyrinth of Greed

Cell That We Bleed In

False Vision EP is NOW AVAILABLE as a name-your-price download on their Bandcamp:

OUTRAGE – Austrian Death Metal Warriors Sign With Massacre Records

Posted in Death Metal, death metal bands, Metal, metal music, Music, rock music, rock music news with tags Death Metal, death metal albums 2013, metal albums 2013, Metal News, outrage, outrage brutal human bastard on July 6, 2013 by Metal Odyssey

From Massacre Records:

Are you ready for “Austrian Neckbreaking Death Metal”? Good, because we’re welcoming OUTRAGE to the Massacre Records family!

Founded in late 2000, OUTRAGE played Death Metal since their very beginning – influenced by both US Death Metal heroes as well as Classic Metal and Rock legends, like AC/DC or Sepultura.

They released their first demo “and deeper…” in 2002 and the first studio album “Switch Off The Pain” followed in 2006.

OUTRAGE played numerous shows in Europe and supported bands such as their Massacre Records label mates Disbelief, Mastic Scum and Debauchery and went on mini-tour with Lay Down Rotten in G/A/S in 2009.

Some of you have probably seen them live at Austria’s Metalfest (2010) and Extremefest (2012), Slovenia’s Metalcamp (2005/2007/2008/2010) or Germany’s Walpurgis Metal Days (2007/2010), among other festival appearances.

The band’s second album Contaminated was recorded at the Kohlekeller Studio and was released 2009 via Maintain Records/Twilight-Vertrieb.

OUTRAGE’s typical trademarks are brutal grooves, blistering riffs and aggressive breakdowns paired with lyrics about anger, melancholy, frustration and social criticism.

The guys entered the Kohlekeller Studio again in March 2011 and recorded their upcoming album Brutal Human Bastard, which is going to be released in autumn 2013 via Massacre Records!

OUTRAGE are, among other Massacre Records bands, featured on the “Metal For The Flood Victims Donation Sampler”, which you can download for a minimum donation of 5€ here:https://www.phasetrax.de/artist/radio-diabolus/album/65/metal-for-the-flood-victims-donation-sampler (page available in German only!)

DEBAUCHERY “Kings Of Carnage” – Is Stone’s METAL Pick Of The Day!

Posted in Death Metal, death metal bands, Heavy Metal, heavy metal albums, heavy metal news, melodic death metal, Metal, metal music, Music, rock music, rock music news with tags Death Metal, debauchery, debauchery kings of carnage, melodic death metal, metal albums 2013, Metal News on July 3, 2013 by Metal Odyssey

DEBAUCHERY – Releasing on August 2nd, 2013, via Massacre Records, is one hell of an album straight from hell that I’m gratefully addicted to: Kings Of Carnage from Debauchery. This band of Metal hell assassins blend a fascinating mix of Death/Melodic Death Metal, with straight-up Thrash grooves wrapped around a powerful Metal sound; all coupled with Death and Blackened vocals with spine cracking, hellish gang vocals for good Metal measure.

There is plenty of Heavy Metal thump-and-stump across Kings Of Carnage and it’s riff-infested to the maximum Metal potential! The title track alone is worth the price of Metal admission here and Debauchery are not just convincing with their Metal; they are F’n convincing. This is an album that is quite ruthless with its ability to make my neck ache from headbanging and I’m very thankful for it.

Lyrically vicious and memorable as all hell, Kings Of Carnage reminds me that blood-soaked songs of carnage can pack my brain with true deathly bliss. Just a grand kick-to-the-Metal-ass release from Debauchery. With Victory Awaits, Debauchery also reminds me of just how victorious their new album truly is and I’m more than willing to join the Debauchery Motherfuckin Family. Metal be thy name.

Below, check Out The Album Trailer Video For Kings Of Carnage! WHOA!

DEHUMAN REIGN “Destructive Intent” – A Morbid And Menacing Must!

Posted in Death Metal, death metal bands, Metal, metal bands, metal music, Music, rock music, rock music news with tags Death Metal, death metal albums 2013, dehuman reign, dehuman reign destructive intent, metal albums 2013, Metal News on June 17, 2013 by Metal Odyssey

DEHUMAN REIGN – Releasing on July 26th, 2013, via FDA Rekotz is the menacing debut album, Destructive Intent, from Berlin’s Death Metal squad: Dehuman Reign. With (about) 20 minutes of face-melting Death Metal to be devoured on Destructive Intent, the keep it short, fast and deadly approach in which Dehuman Reign ventures into is not a bad idea at all. The shortened album approach in Metal has succeeded in the past, with Slayer’s Reign In Blood being the untouchable template for generations of bands and fans to savor.

Here we have Dehuman Reign and not Slayer, so the comparisons can stop with lengths of albums. With that said, Dehuman Reign rages along with a Gore Metal meets Death Metal sound; a blanket of sound that’s terrifying enough to put some of your worst nightmares to their knees. Morbid vocals and extreme speed musically, the two marry into each other with a perfection that only we Death and Gore Metal fans can wholly appreciate.

With killer album art and equally killer songs, what more can any savvy Death/Gore/Extreme Metal fan want? I’ll tell you this much, with this album playing and the lights turned off, Dehuman Reign easily can scare the shit out of me; especially the evil provoking spoken word tracks of: Invocation I Black Seed and Invocation II Scorched Earth. Whatever the deadly case may be, the melancholic vibes and darkness that lurks behind these spoken words are what keeps me up late at night and I’ll never learn my lesson; cause this is the underground Metal I crave for. Metal be thy name.

DESTRUCTIVE INTENT – Track Listing:

Prelude To Perdition

Extinction Machine

Invocation I Black Seed

Irreversible Soul Consumption

Staring Beyond The Edge Of Time

Invocation II Scorched Earth

Veil Of Ignorance

Masks Of Sorrow

Destructive Intent was mastered by Matias Ahonen at Finnish Audiamond Studio (Solstafir, Hour Of 13). The album’s cover art was masterfully drawn by Dedy of Badic Art (Demonical, Goregast, Skeletal Remains).

EXTINCTION PROTOCOL – Erie Sci-Fi Death Metal Outfit’s Debut Album Out Now

Posted in Death Metal, death metal bands, Heavy Metal, Metal, metal music, Music, rock music, rock music news with tags Death Metal, death metal albums 2013, extinction protocol, metal albums 2013, Metal News on June 17, 2013 by Metal Odyssey

Aeonic Obliteration, the debut full-length from Erie, Pennsylvania-based death metal henchmen EXTINCTION PROTOCOL, is out now via NYC-based D.I.Y. label P2.

Merging modern tactics with primal, classic death metal vitality, EXTINCTION PROTOCOL bridges schizophrenic old-school riffage with overpowering breakdowns. Their debut album Aeonic Obliteration lyrically scrutinizes the greed and corruption of mankind thus concluding humanity’s eventual downfall due to genetic testing and world altering events. With nine devastating songs packed into a nearly thirty-three minute event horizon, Aeonic Obliteration features stellar production values courtesy of Ivan at Anthropocide Studios (Abominable Putridity) and full-color cosmic destruction ala JoeJesus of DeviantArt.

Aeonic Obliteration can now be streamed in its entirety and purchased at the P2 Bandcamp RIGHT HERE, and the ultra-affordable CD version ordered HERE.

KALMAH: Full Album “Seventh Swamphony” Streaming At Revolvermag.com

Posted in Death Metal, death metal bands, Heavy Metal, Metal, metal music, Music, rock music, rock music news with tags Death Metal, finnish death metal, kalmah, kalmah seventh swamphony, melodic death metal, metal albums 2013, Metal News on June 14, 2013 by Metal Odyssey

Celebrate your Friday with a hearty dose of Seventh Swamphony, the impending new full-length from Finnish Death Metal instigators, KALMAH, currently streaming in its entirety via Revolver Magazine.

Recorded at Tico-Tico Studios in Kemi, Finland, the follow-up to 2010’s critically acclaimed 12 Gauge release was mixed and mastered at Sweden’s Fascination Street Studios by Jens Bogren (Opeth, Soilwork, Paradise Lost, et al) and showcases the Oulu outfit’s signature brand of frantic, yet melodic death metal tempered here by a new-found epic mournfulness.

Reaping critical accolades both domestically and abroad, Metal Reviews crowned KALMAH’s Seventh Swamphony “Album Of The Year,” calling the band “one of, if not the finest, melodic death metal bands.” Said Metal Temple is an 8/10 review: “From their blistering opener of Seventh Swamphony, to the windmill inducing finale The Trapper, this album keeps the energy flowing nonstop. Pekka Kokko’s vocal work is solid with vicious growls and soul squirming screams that give an unearthly feel to the album.”

Adds New Noise Magazine: “Seventh Swamphony features quality over quantity and you will be aware of that on the first listen. Never have I heard the band so supercharged and ready to slaughter as they are featured here. Even the slower paced ‘Windlake Tale’ correctly utilizes a death growl vocal approach to its melodic folk and works well as a blueprint to show Amorphis what they’ve been doing wrong all of these years. Quite simply put, Seventh Swamphony might very well be one of the heaviest folk metal albums that I’ve heard in years and should go down in the band’s history as one of their most memorable releases.”

Hear for yourself, courtesy of Revolver Magazine at:

THIS LOCATION.

Seventh Swamphony will be released in North America via Spinefarm Records digitally onJune 18, 2013 and on CD June 25, 2013. For preorders, point your browser HERE. Additionally, if you missed it, check out the band’s “Seventh Swamphony” video courtesy of Metal Injection HERE.

DISPARAGED – Swiss Death Metal Warriors Signs With Apostasy Records

Posted in Death Metal, death metal bands, Heavy Metal, heavy metal news, Metal, metal music, Music, rock music, rock music news with tags apostasy records, Death Metal, death metal bands, disparaged, Metal News, swedish death metal on June 11, 2013 by Metal Odyssey

Apostasy Records and Swiss Death Metal act DISPARAGED have recently entered into an unholy alliance that will see the band release their upcoming fourth album on the label.

DISPARAGED exists to dispel any existing stereotypes regarding the laid-back nature of the Swiss. The quartet rounds off dynamic drums and harsh brutality with downright virtuous melodies within the solos. Their compositions are similarly conclusive and thrilling. DISPARAGED was formed in 1999 and since released a trio of well-received albums – Overlust, Blood Source and The Wrath Of God. Their most recent release featured the mixing and mastering skills of Jacob Hansen (Aborted, Destruction, Pestilence).

DISPARAGED commented: “We are very proud to have found in Apostasy Records a for us perfectly tailored partner. We are looking forward to the cooperation and the release of our new album!”

Additional details and updates are coming soon.
