My Hidden Love for Obituary

By now it should be something like 13/15 years ago that i first heard of Obituary. At that time i was pretty much only listening to Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit, Soulfly and Slipknot. At the time me and my brother and some friends were always doing lan-party's. There was this guy that introduced me to a couple of songs from the album Cause of Death from Obituary.

And now, many years later i can't stop listening to these death metal legends! Today, the postman finally delivered my remasterd golden disc of The End Complete. And with that record added to my Obituary collection i have now 4 cd's and 3 vinyl's. Slowly i am getting the whole discography and can't wait for it to be complete! I had to wait a long time btw to get Inked in Blood on vinyl. It was "sold out" and second hand was way to expansive. When the S/T came out Large had Inked in Blood back in stock as well, Of course i couldn't resist it and bought the two right away!

Inked in Blood.. Fuck, that one got me hooked! It's fast, heavy, brutal and for me their best record they have made so far. The shortest track on the album called Violence is by far my fav. track.

But, i love the other albums just as much as Inked in Blood. I mean, Back From the Dead, The End Complete, World Demise.. Cause of Death and Slowly we Rot! Piece by piece a brutal smashing record like no other band can do. That's why, Obituary are pure death metal legends (imo).

I'm not sure btw, but a couple of months ago i read they will start making a new album soon (a follow up to the S/T). I hope this is true and it might come out this year. That will make it even better with the upcoming albums from Dimmu Borgir, Behemoth and Rammstein. I kinda want to add Machine Head to this little list as well but so far, don't think that album will be.. special? It is getting to much hate already wich sucks.

New Shit: Revel in Flesh & Nightbringer

Today i am bringing you two bands i just discoverd! Starting with a death metal called Revel in Flesh. This is (as i said) a death metal band that wants to bring you that classic 90’s DM from Europe. And they sure do, bloody hell.. I heard the track ‘Casket Ride’ on our Discover Weekly at Spotify and was hooked right away. That monstrous brutal tune.. I mean, lets take a quote of their Facebook page..

"An excellent offering to the Gods of SweDeath, complete with one of the most accurate re-creations of the crushing guitartones of the early Sunlight era. For fans of NIHILIST and ENTRAILS"

I can hear Entrails in their music. Not sure about Nihilist though. I do kinda know them but i hardly listen to their music.

Nightbringer. This band belongs in the dark world of black metal. Also discoverd trough the weekly playlist. When the track started i turned up the volume pretty loud. That evil voice in the beginning, then those drums and guitars.. Such evil in such a pretty sound..
The whole record is pure evil, raw and feels like a demon is in your room/head wich i, for some reason like. This kinda reminds me of The Satanist by the mighty Behemoth but in his earlier work. Terra Damnata is a record that crushes the time away. Some songs are over six minutes but feel like only 2/3 minutes.. And that is good thing.

New Shit: Mutation - Hate

This is a ridiculously extreme, obnoxious and hostile piece of work. It's an exorcism, a venting of malevolent spirits and mental exhaustion. But it's also an extraordinary piece of art and one of the most obscenely exciting bursts of freewheeling, kamikaze noise that you will ever hear.

That right there discribes the new album from the extreme metal band Mutation. I didn’t know them untill now. To be honest, i didn’t even saw the article on Blabbermouth that was posted a couple of day ago. I feel kinda bad for that because this song called Hate is pretty damn amazing. If you are a fan of music that feels and sound like total chaos this will be perfect for you.

The intro up to 15 seconds and the part after that, bloody fucking perfect if you ask me! The vocals wich are very distorded fit the song very well. Go check it out!

New Shit: Rex Brown–Train Song

This is a call to all fans of bands like Velvet Revolver, Stone Temple Pilots and AC/DC! Rex Brown, also known as the bassist of the great metal band Pantera just released a new song ‘Train Song’ of his upcoming solo project, simply called: Rex Brown. The album got the title ‘Smoke On This’. I like what i hear so far but i will not start smoking on his music..

Anyway, like i said.. It sounds a lot like the bands mentioned above, wich for me is a good thing but i do get it that some people will think that this is just some simple rip off.. Is it?

This is what I wanna do. I had a co-writer with some of these songs, and this is the way that I see it and this is the way we're gonna do it. – Rex Brown.

I personally don’t mind the resemblance of those bands at all. Hell, i always hope there will be more bands with the same kind of vibe/type of music. Not the genre it self, but the way it sounds. For example; Sempiternal from Bring Me The Horizon, La Petite Mort or a Conversion with God from King 810 (really, i fucking need more heavy metal poetry in my life), Blood from In This Moment, The Pale Emperor by Marilyn Manson.. Just to name a few. But for some reason they always change with a new album. Wich is also good of course..

Anyway, back to Rex B. I can’t wait for this album to drop in stores on july 28th! Because so far it sounds pretty damn great and would great to spin on vinyl while enjoying a nice cop of coffee and headbang! In case you want to pre-order, go to PledgeMusic here.
