HATE ETERNAL - KING OF ALL KINGS

Music Review

Artist : HATE ETERNAL
Album : KING OF ALL KINGS

Cool Track/s : King Of All Kings, Born By Fire, Powers That Be
Rate : 8 / 10

Hate Eternal was formed in 1997. The group's original line-up included Erik Rutan - guitars/vocals, bassist and co-vocalist Jared Anderson, drummer Tim Yeung, and guitarist Doug Cerrito of the band Suffocation. In 2002, drummer Derek Roddy (formerly of Nile, Divine Empire and Malevolent Creation) replaced Tim Yeung,
and the band set forth to record their second album, King of All Kings as a trio with Erik, Jared and Derek. That summer, Erik Rutan calmly parted ways with Morbid Angel, stating that he wished to devote more time to Hate Eternal. What followed was a whirlwind of international touring to promote King of All Kings, including a noted
video on MTV2's Headbanger's Ball for the single, "Powers That Be".

This album "King Of All Kings" by Hate Eternal means only one thing "Brootall". With the "light of speed" of drumming, and the complexity of the guitar riffs, produce a fast and brutal tracks in high stake. No time for relaxing, fast tracks rollin' one after another. This band means bussines. You gotta have this one. It's too fast!!

Tracklist :
1. Our Beckoning
2. King Of All Kings
3. The Obscure Terror
4. Servants Of The Gods
5. Beyond Redemption
6. Born By Fire
7. Chants In Declaration
8. Rising Legions Of Black
9. In Spirit (The Power Of Mana)
10.Powers That Be

CRADLE OF FILTH - MIDIAN


Music Review

Artist : CRADLE OF FILTH
Album : MIDIAN

Cool Track/s : Cthulhu Dawn, Saffron's Curse, Lord Abortion
Rate : 9 / 10


Midian is the fourth full-length album by Cradle of Filth, released on Halloween 2000. At the time it was considered their most commercial and accessible album to date. It is a concept album inspired by Clive Barker's novel Cabal and his subsequent film version Nightbreed. Midian is more guitar-oriented than its predecessors. The cover art was created by JK Potter.The song "Cthulhu Dawn" invokes the character from horror writer H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu Mythos. Many other heavy metal bands - including Metallica, Morbid Angel, and Bal-Sagoth - have namechecked Cthulhu.

I really love this album. It contains great tracks, great black metal tracks. Cthulhu Dawn, Saffron's Curse, Lord Abortion, Creatures that Kissed in Cold Mirrors, Her Ghost In The Fog. Basicly, I like them all. Cradle of Filth still have their magic touch exploring their nightmares into vampiric tracks. Built a dark atmosphere inside your
mind. into The world of Midian.

Tracklist :
"At the Gates of Midian"
"Cthulhu Dawn"
"Saffron's Curse"
"Death Magick for Adepts"
"Lord Abortion"
"Amor E Morte"
"Creatures that Kissed in Cold Mirrors"
"Her Ghost in the Fog"
"Satanic Mantra"
"Tearing the Veil from Grace"
"Tortured Soul Asylum"

SUFFOCATION - SOULS TO DENY


Music Review

Artist : SUFFOCATION
Album : SOULS TO DENY

Cool Track/s : To Weep Once More, Souls To Deny, Tomes Of Acrimony
Rate : 8 / 10

Souls to Deny is a 2004 album by the death metal band Suffocation marking the end of a 6-year hiatus. This is the first album featuring guitarist Guy Marchais (ex-Pyrexia, ex-Internal Bleeding) and marks the return of original drummer, Mike Smith. They did not have a bass player during the recording; bass guitar tracks on the album are played by Terrance Hobbs and Mike Smith. The cover artwork is from well-known artist Dan Seagrave.

The production is perfectly clean, the instruments sound incredible, and the vocals sound perfect (but not as guttural as in older albums), the mixing and mastering is great. The artwork is fabulous as every Suffocation album. So anyway this album is great for those who haven't heard Suffocation earlier work; and for those who have the album itself (without comparing it to Effigy... and Pierced...) is amazing, very good structured, and with awesome musicians (minus Doug Cerrito), a great album that must be heard by every metal head. Suffocation is always come up with freat materials, so I highly recommend this album.
Get it now..

Tracklist :
1 - Deceit
2 - To Weep Once More
3 - Souls to Deny
4 - Surgery of Impalement
5 - Demise of the Clone
6 - Subconsciously Enslaved

CRADLE OF FILTH - BITTER SUITES TO SUCCUBI


Music Review

Artist : CRADLE OF FILTH
Album : BITTER SUITES TO SUCCUBI

Cool Track/s : Born in a Burial Gown, Summer Dying Fast, The Black Goddess Rises II
Rate : 9 / 10

Cradle of Filth's Bitter Suites to Succubi is essentially an EP - or "transitional mini album" as Dani Filth would have it - bridging the gap between Midian and Damnation and a Day while the band negotiated their label change from Music For Nations to Sony. It features only six new tracks (two of which are instrumentals), but is bolstered to album-length with three reworkings of songs from The Principle of Evil Made Flesh, and a cover version. It was the band's first release on their own Abracadaver label. Uniquely in the band's canon, it features exactly the same band members as the previous album. "Dinner at Deviant's Palace" is actually The Lord's Prayer played backwards.

Tracklist :
"Sin Deep My Wicked Angel"
"All Hope in Eclipse"
"Born in a Burial Gown"
"Summer Dying Fast"
"No Time to Cry" (Sisters of Mercy cover)
"The Principle of Evil Made Flesh"
"Suicide and Other Comforts"
"Dinner at Deviant's Palace"
"The Black Goddess Rises II"
"Scorched Earth Erotica"

Rate : 9 / 10

Cryptopsy is a brutal death metal band from Canada. In 1994 they recorded their debut album, Blasphemy Made Flesh, which at first was independently released and
later licensed to Invasion Records. This album gained them a wide attention in the death metal underground scene.

I had this album in 2007. This record was 13 years old!! But I really love it the first time i played it on my CD player. The fast and melodic sounds grab my ears nicely. I am a big fans of old school death metal, and Cryptopsy was one of the biggest name in the scene when it comes to old school brutal death metal. It's pretty difficult to choose my favorit tracks, 'cos i like all of them. But, I really love Open Face Surgery and Pathological Frolic. Be sure to check it out, this one is bloody classic !!

1. Defenestration
2. Abigor

MORBID ANGEL - BLESSED ARE THE SICK


Music Review

Artist : MORBID ANGEL
Album : BLESSED ARE THE SICK

Cool Track/s : Day of Suffering, Unholy Blasphemies, Abominations
Rate : 8 / 10

Morbid Angel is a Florida-based death metal band assembled in 1983. Many says this band is one of the first genre to bring death metal to its brutal side.

Their songs are complex in arrangement, owing to the considerable technical skills of guitarist Trey Azagthoth and drummer Pete Sandoval. If you haven't notice, Morbid Angel albums have been released in alphabetical order. So far it's 'A to H' with 'heretic' is their last album. I love this album so much. The music is brutal death metal with classical influence. Their songs structure is differ from other death bands. Trey explore his darkest side and mixed it with classical riffs and matched it with the fast tempo of Pete's blastbeats drumming. So cool !!

Tracklist :
1. Intro
2. Fall from grace
3. Brainstorm
4. Rebel Lands
5. Doomsday celebration
6. Day of suffering
7. Blessed are the Sick / Leading the Rats
8. Unholy Blapshemies
9. Abominations
10. Desolate Ways
11. The Ancient Ones
12. In remembrance

EMPEROR - IN THE NIGHTSIDE ECLIPSE

Music Review

Artist : EMPEROR
Album : IN THE NIGHTSIDE ECLIPSE

Cool Track/s : I am The Black Wizard, The Burning Shadows Of Silence
Rate : 8 / 10

'IN THE NIGHTSIDE ECLIPSE' is the debut album by Norwegian black metal band 'EMPEROR'. This album features one of their best-known song, "I am the Black Wizards", and is considered a defining album for the black metal genre. It also featured two cover songs as bonus tracks (listed below), the first of which also appears on the Bathory tribute album "In Conspiracy With Satan".

When you talking about 'Emperor', then you have to talk about complexity. Their music is - i say - complex atmospheric black metal. The blast beats drums is always mixed with keyboards and fast but catchy guitar riffs. Make their music so rich and atmospheric. And the scream.. well, it is black metal with Big B, indeed!! For you black metal freaks, you should have this one!!

Tracklist :
1. Into the Infinity of Thoughts
2. The Burning Shadows of Silence
3. Cosmic Keys to my Creations and Times
4. Beyond the Great Vast Forest
