Man, to be honest, this is probably the first extreme metal band I ever listened to. I found out about these guys on mp3.com (I know) years and years ago. Pretty cool I finally found the material again. Black/Death metal from the Netherlands
I was talkin to someone about the Finnish band Slugathor and we both agreed the 2009 album is the best work these guys have put out so far. That's not to say their previous two full lengths weren't good, but Slugathor really steps it up on this album. Solid crushing deathdoom.
You know I really have no idea why I didn't post this with my original Incantation post but this albums rips too. I mean does it touch Onward to Golgotha? Tough call, it's definitely another solid release from Incantation so check it out.
These guys actually formed in Finland back in the day in 1993, but only started putting out demos in 2005, and came out with this album in 2009. I read a review that summed these guys up pretty well; imagine Asphyx, Autopsy and Incantation in one and you have this album.
I'm pretty sure they sing in Russian so I have absolutely no idea what they're saying, but the music is pure quality. Classic deathdoom from Russia, another remnant of the 90's. Also, the vocalist died in a fire.
Maimed are a classic deathdoom band out of the USA that ever only released one demo. I always thought these guys were majorly underrated, this is a great demo.
Grave Miasma are from the UK and play a really awesome blackened death metal. Been digging on the Exalted Emanation EP, haven't checked the Realm of Evoked Doom EP out yet, but I will post it here.
