Underrated Old School Death Metal - DEMENTED TED


This Chicago band only recorded one album, in 1993, called Promises Impure.

Originally released by Pavement Music, it was resurrected by Repulsive Echo in 2016.

Progressive thrashy death metal, with some similarities to Obliveon.

It's a great listen from beginning to end, an obscure classic.

Incantation - Unholy Deification [REVIEW]

Image
Following the  Tricennial Of Blasphemy  compilation late last year, Incantation are back. This time with their twelfth full-length, Unholy Deification. This band doesn't have a bad album, and the bar is particularly high going into this one - following 2020's excellent Sect Of Vile Divinities, and other modern classics such as 2014's Dirges Of Elysium. ...and it doesn't disappoint. If anything, it surpasses expectations. Aggressive-but-accessible; well-written, well-executed; and it flows very well indeed. Just the right amount of dirt in the production, and also just the right amount of sheen. It's great to see a band still making inspired music more than three decades into their career. You can stream the release below, and purchase a copy here .

Banished By Sin is album number thirteen from these death metal legends.

It will finally be released on 26th April, brought to us by new label Reigning Phoenix Music. The last couple of albums were excellent, so hopes are very high going into this one.

Doom-laden black metal from Poland here. ...and an early album-of-the-year contender. Released on Godz Ov War, this sophomore effort really is quite sublime. Intense and powerful, eerie and atmospheric, cadaverous goodness. You can preview/download it below, and pick up a copy here . The band's earlier offerings are also well worth checking.
