  • 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 [...]

  • 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 [...]

  • Splatterhouse & Gruesome Stuff Relish “Split”

    Happygrind is back! Well, technically this release came out before Splatterhouse’s The House That Dead Built, but I reviewed that full length first… oh forget it, why am I trying to explain things to you, just continue sitting there looking at the screen looking dopey, shaking your fist because I gave Splatterhouse a goofy [...]

  • Night To Die “All Evil Crying”

    Night To Die are a self-proclaimed melodic death metal band with flamenco influences. The use of flamenco in death metal is original, unfortunately the rest of their music isn’t. Starting out this three song EP is "Childhood Memories" which is obviously extremely ‘influenced’ by Death’s Symbolic release a few year backs, the vocals [...]

  • Machetazo “Ultratumba”

    I haven’t listened to much Machetazo since the release of Trono de Huesos, needless to say this 28 track compilation of Machetazo’s hard to find split material, EPs and cover songs from 1998 to 2004 helps fill me in on a lot of the material I’ve missed. Spain’s Machetazo play an intense style of music that’s [...]

  • Machetazo “The Maggot Sessions”

    There’s something charming about homages: they’re quirky, reminiscent of days gone by, and if performed right they can be down-right awesome. Unfortunately, in most instances, homages to the bands of the past fucking suck ass. They usually get too caught up in themselves, are poorly executed, or just plain fucking suck. However, Spanish grinders Machetazo’s [...]

  • Machetazo “Sinfonias Del Terror Ciego”

    Back when I was a kid in middle school, I grew up on renting old ass horror films. As early as sixth grade I got introduced to the European scene from the early 70’s to late 80’s. When other kids were watching Scream, I was watching Suspiria. One of the biggest things I came across [...]

  • Machetazo “Carne de Cementerio”

    When I first got this promo pack the first thing I did was read the bio. Strewn throughout was references and comparisons to Carcass, Brutal Truth, Autopsy, Impetigo and Exhumed. Of course, I, being smarter than your average bear, realize that’s all just PR bullshit and means the band is probably another boring [...]
