Essential Bands - VADER


A post about Vader's debut is here.

Below are choice tracks from eleven other choice albums, for anyone that is unfamilar.

Thirty-six years into their career, they are still going strong - with a new EP being released later this month, and a new full-length on the way.

One of the most consistent death metal acts in terms of content, they have always brought a healthy dose of Slayer influence to the table.

They are also highly impressive in a live situation, main man (and only constant member) Piotr "Peter" Wiwczarek in particular.

Vader is a band with a very strong formula, get yourself hooked today.

Deicide - Banished By Sin [Forthcoming Release]

Image
Banished By Sin is album number thirteen from these death metal legends. It has been six years since Deicide 's last effort, and has felt like longer thanks to this one having been teased for so long - it was announced seven months ago, and we only got to hear the first single (which can be found at the bottom of this post) on Christmas Day. 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.

Malformed - Uncontrollable Malformity [REVIEW]

Image
Uncontrollable Malformity   is the first release from this Finnish band. Originally put out (on cassette and vinyl) in January 2023, by Rotted Life, it has taken a full year for the CD to materialise. The five tracks here are well-produced, while maintaining an appropriate level of filth. Memorable riffs, captivating leads, and a lot of early Corpsegrinder-era Cannibal Corpse-style groove. A thoroughly impressive effort from these youngsters, death metal of the highest order. We are very much looking forward to their debut album.
