Double Ds

  • Cerebral Effusion “Smashed And Splattered Organs”

    People used to mock me for my fondness for Spanish death metal in the mid to late 1990s. The term "Suffocation-clone" was thrown around so much it was quite annoying. In order to be this type of clone, you have to be quite talented and most of these bands just didn’t have it. But they [...]

  • Vomitory “Blood Rapture”

    Hey, what do you know? Another Swedish band that enjoys playing fast yet soft death metal with a love for that rockin’ band known as Entombed. I have grown weary of this type of stuff and I am offended when people state that all brutal death metal is boring. This shit could put an insomniac [...]

  • Vehemence “The Thoughts From Which I Hide”

    The recent years has brought about a bevy of bands that have been proclaimed, by their labels, to be the next best thing since Internet porn or sliced bread - whichever you prefer or you may like both at the same time. One band in particular comes to mind - Lamb of God. Touted by [...]

  • Various Artists “Xtreem Music Compilation”

    Nothing like a free compilation to brighten your day. Actually, the back of the disc says, "If you sell this CD or pay to get it…you’re a fucking asshole!!" I am not an asshole, thank goodness. This is a great compilation of western European bands (plus one from NY). This disc contains many of those [...]

  • Various Artists “Seven Gates of Hell Part 1″

    As if one lo-fi grindcore band is not enough, Chop2Death and Reverb Productions have joined forces to release a compilation of seven international bands. The buyer receives exactly what they were looking for: plenty of bad production, tinny sounds, muffled vocals, insane grind, political and gory topics, less than one minute songs, and a pure [...]

  • Various Artists “Into The Blizzard: Canadian Assault Compilation”

    I figured since the National Hockey League was back I’d go for an all-out, Molson soaked, review session. Since this hit my eye first, I figured this disc would do fine. This is a decent compilation of bands from the frosty north, with most of the bands in the death metal realm. All of these [...]

  • Unreal Overflows “Architecture Of Incomprehension”

    I have often dabbled in the world of Spanish death metal, especially in the late 1990s when most of the bands had a boner for New Yawk style brootal (misspelled intentionally) death metal in the vein of a poor man’s Pyrexia and/or Suffocation. One of the bands that comes to mind is Uncreation with their [...]

  • Unnatural “Life”

    Burning Dogma Records has been re-releasing older bands that disbanded, for the most part (except Alienation Mental’s – Ball Spouter – what an album and what a title!) and some newer bands from around the globe. This can be a good thing. Before bands get stale like your mom’s pound cake, I think its better [...]

  • Ulceration “Submerged In Gluttony”

    While examining this disc, I had odd flashbacks of times that I had though I had some type of ulceration. One time, sitting outside a friend’s house during a party, I decided to house an entire bag of Cool Ranch Doritos. In such a fit of hunger, I decided not to chew the spice-laden chips, [...]

  • Third Degree “Outstay”

    I never really understood why people of Polish descent have consistently been the butt-end of every bad joke. Could it have been that there was one moronic Polish guy who started the whole trend? Who knows and who cares! At first, the disc and it’s layout leave itself prone to plenty of terrible jokes. However, [...]
