GOTHIC! The way to go in the '90s!!!
|
|
|
|
Now that I got that out of the way, I heard some INCREDIBLE new albums
|
|
that I must share with you:
|
|
|
|
Living Sacrifice, "Non Existent" - A MUST GRAB! Much MUCH heavier than
|
|
their last release and far more technical.. it's gothic techno-DEATH folks
|
|
along the lines of an extremely technical Gorguts or Unleashed... also in
|
|
between the brutally death rhythms you'll find clean and intricate
|
|
acoustic guitar along the lines of Spanish guitar classics... what an
|
|
incredible album!!!
|
|
|
|
Ordained Fate, "Ordained Fate" - another MUST GRAB! very heavy gothic
|
|
metal release on Wonderland Records... the drummer, Terry Cvengros, is the
|
|
only MALE in the band (the rest are women!) alongside his wife Annette,
|
|
one of 1992's BEST guitarists.. and just in time for this years new
|
|
administration is the song "The Election", which gives the theme of the
|
|
old philosopher Rousseau: "Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts
|
|
absolutely".. I was most pleased...
|
|
|
|
Under Midnight - heavy industrial along the lines of early Ministry on
|
|
Wonderland Records with Believer's Kurt Bachman as guest guitarist..
|
|
|
|
I didn't get the chance to hear Veni Domine yet (they're on the same label
|
|
as Living Sacrifice - R.E.X. Records) but I hear from others that they're
|
|
along the lines of Seventh Angel and Detritus...
|
|
|
|
Demolition - the compilation album on R.E.X. Records with the bands and
|
|
their songs: Thresher, "My Reality" (from their never-released second demo
|
|
before they broke up), Mortal Enemy, "Exodus of Life" (from "Tame the
|
|
Beast Within"), dodavahu, "Attitude" from their self-titled demo,
|
|
Consecrator, "Free From Death" (from "Image of Deception"), The Unknown,
|
|
"Graphic Nature", Abhor Evil, "Zone Zong" (from "Abhor Evil II"), Hot Pink
|
|
Turtle, "Glide" (from "Demo No. 3"), Sardonyx, "Puppet of Beauty" (from
|
|
"Majestic Serenity"), and Immortal, "Senseless Abandon" (from "Dead and
|
|
Buried" before they became Circle of Dust)... the best of the Christian
|
|
underground (my pix: Thresher, Consecrator, Sardonyx and The Unknown...
|
|
and Immortal!)
|
|
|
|
Final Judgement will be in concert at the Wreck Room on Nov. 13 at 800

|
|
|
|
Congrats to both Florida grinders Royal Anguish and Maryland death
|
|
metallers The Risen for both being signed to A.R.T. Records.. also look
|
|
for a compilation release with both bands and many more.. new bands on the
|
|
scene include Surreal Embodiment and Alchemist.. Godhead has released
|
|
their second demo in a far more brutal and authentic death metal vein..
|
|
the original 2-song demo by the Toledo band is still available..
|
|
Everlasting Revelation is a new 4-piece band from outside Washington D.C.
|
|
in the hard rock vein with some leanings toward Undercover.. Delaware
|
|
grungers Ragman's Eric Hutts is forming his own label and reports to have
|
|
already 15 different bands in the death, gothic, doom, grunge and
|
|
progressive vein - all Christian.. Dutch doom metallers Sculpture have
|
|
released their debut demo, "Enter The Kingdom", along the lines of early
|
|
Paradise Lost.. Washington State death/industrial band Arbitrage have
|
|
released their THIRD demo, "The Healing Power of Death", including a
|
|
24-minute long epic, "Land of Hypocrisy", making Arbitrage the band with
|
|
the longest recorded song in heavy Christian music (congrats!).. Lanny
|
|
Cordola's solo release "Electric Warrior, Acoustic Saint" is very popular
|
|
in the UK right now.. this fall another "Metal Meltdown" conference in
|
|
England will be held with special guest speaker Michael Bloodgood.. One
