NERVECELL [HUMAN CHAOS EP] CD - (UAE) - by Fonda

If you are a metalhead here in Dubai & you don’t know this band, well there’s something fucking wrong with you. This band is well-known in the UG scene not only in UAE, but already making a wave across the globe esp. in Europe . Though they have a different point of view in the UG and mainstream thing (see my interview with them).
This EP have five tracks along with a bonus of their live performance singing their infamous “Demolition” song , I guess during the Dubai Desert Rock Festival in 2005, and a few clips that I think is taken at their friend’s place while jamming. That includes showing them having a drinking session, hehe.
I have seen this band perform during the DDRF this 2008, and I did tell this guys that they are the only ones I liked who played on the first day. This year 2009 they also played along with Archenemy, Opeth, Motorhead and so on.Their music is death metal, which you can also sense the thrash metal influence as well. They are a very approachable guys.
Recently, they had release their album called “Preaching the Venom” which I also reviewed. – Fonda

HEMOPTYSIS [WHO NEEDS A SHEPERD?] EP- PHOENIX, (USA) - by Fonda

First of, I would like to kill the postal authorities because I think they fucking put on hold the CD and press kit this band sent me. So I needed to contact this band again to give me the link where I can download this EP release.
Undoubtedly, as I listen to their 1st song “Shadow of Death” I cannot deny that I was hooked with the vocal grunts and maniacal killer approach of Masaki who is also doing the guitar, along with Jack doing the great lead guitar execution. Same goes to Sunao and Travis adding the speed-blast beat to the music.
This is a reminiscent of the great classic thrash metal, combining it with melodic death taste, reminds me of bands like Autopsy and Slayer. They started only in 2007, and I can see better metal years ahead for this band in the UG scene. – Fonda

NO FUCK [EXISTENZMINIMUM] CD - (ITALY) - by Fonda

http://www.nofuck.it / http://www.myspace.com/nofuckthrash / info@nofuck.it / nofuck@almamaterprod.com

Ok, prepare yourself for uncontrolled intensity of thrash metal. Great way to start my day here in the office, as I think of ways to diminish my Manager.
First song is the name of the band themselves, “No Fuck” and the intro made me think of Terminator at the beginning of the riffs, hehe. Things tick off again with the song “Shattered Dreams” as I sense the death metal influence and later on, the HC on songs like “Tragedy” and “Why Me”. The aggression on the guitar going to melodic heavy approach appealed to me a lot.
This band has been around more than 10 years, though there was line-up changes, the music still remains a hot coal. Watch out for their upcoming album “Walls of Flesh” which is another expression of their dissatisfaction in life it seems. Hope they will remain the distinctive violent attack music approach though- Fonda

VULVATHRONE [BUKKAKE] CD - (Slovenia) - by Fonda

www.myspace.com/vulvathrone / Saso Herman, Lendavska 37/c 9000 Murska Sobota, Slovenia / vulvathrone@gmail.com

I sometimes enjoy listening to grindcore since it always have this short-seconds songs and the movie-taken intro or wherever the bowel sounds they take it, hehe.
This is a porn-grindcore music that will make your ears bleed, or better music background during hardcore sex…hhmmm…Titles from the songs like “Toilet Slut”, “Bitch, Suck my Tich!!!”, “Forced Oral Suck” and more makes you bang your heads off and get drunk till you drop! The word BUKKAKE is a Japanese word that means a woman being ejaculated by multiple men or the other way around. Are these guys really that horny in-person?? Hmmm…
Not recommended for Mother-Mary-Type of bitches – Fonda

D.C.I. band – [Clown Connected] demo (Germany)

www.myspace.com/deadclowninc / www.myspace.com/sascharisseler / psyctika@gmx.de

Photobucket

Hmm.. how can I describe this? How can I put on the right words to say I love their music??
Their music reminds me of my band CDG were I put on a clean voice, rusty growling, and power metal music. This 4-track demo invites you to a world of complete mix of melodic death approach, thrash on the side and experimental tunes as well. I can say psychedelic metal. They believe in the ethics of DIY which I really appreciate, and surely, I hope they can produce more demo release in the future. -Fonda

THE DUST band – [twenty two] (full-length album)

www.myspace.com/thedust / clubodust@hotmail.com / PO Box1134, El Granada, CA 94018

Photobucket

This band has been around for more than 10 years, hailing from CA. Though I’m wondering if they are a 4–piece or 3-piece band since it is written of 4 members, the pix shows 3 only. Probably, the other one is a session. Anyways, no fucking big deal about that part! Let’s proceed with the review.
Hmm…since HC is not my specialty in making reviews, I also ask the opinion of some people here who plays hardcore and the old-time fanatic of this kind of music. Basically, we agree on the same thing, that one can sense their music jumps from a fast-pace pounding beat to a nu metal approach. Kinda your music when you are out there going for a dangerous high-wave surfing or a hellish skateboarding. Makes your heart pump fast.
It’s a catchy tune, like you will get hooked-up with some of the lines easily, though it may sound that most of the songs sounded the same. But anyways, they juggled on the early approach of hardcore going to the new genre. I do believe Earth Crisis, Lamb of God, and Down is on their track influences base on what we can hear with their music. Nice album, and a very humble members as well. - Fonda

GRAVIL- SOMETHING WORTH CHASING –EP ( Finland , UK )

www.myspace.com/gravil / www.youtube.com/gravilmusic / www.bebo.com/gravil

Photobucket

This Anglo-Scandinavian duo from Finland is an exemption to duo bands I encountered; some metal duo's are impressive, but these two are fucking amazing.
  Gra does the killer vokills, while his partner does all the instruments: guitars, bass, drums, synths, and keyboards. And the drums is a combination of electronic and solid drum beat. Love it.
  These two are actually a mystery since they never show their true identity. The EP cover is a sketch of the two (I guess?). I keenly review the 4-tracks EP. 1st music blasting from my speaker was entitled "Through the Eyes of Spartan" (hmmm.. got inspired from the movie?). Heavy blown thudding starts on my speaker, Great impact with the lead guitar which enthralls me to listen to other tracks. "Something Worth" starts with great melodic intro, while "Multiverse" has an influence of hardcore on it. And damn, "Candle Light" song makes me hook with the singer's vocals, reminds me of Iron Maiden style!
  What really amazes me is they have the true UG mentality, and hope they will remain like that and never goes sell-out. To sum it up, this is a great EP.Their music runs in the genre of Melodic death and Black. Hope that they can release a full-track! Beers pls! -Fonda

VISAYAN EXTREME UNDERGROUND: THE RECKONING Vol. 1 album

cebuextreme@yahoo.com / www.myspace.com/cebuextreme / www.cebuextrememucis.cjb.net

Photobucket

This is under Cebu Extreme Music Production, and this is their 1st compilation release.
This fucking album is holy fucking, ass-kicking, mind-grinding, damn killer compilation! A totally salute these Visayan bands, I never thought there were a lot of great bands hailing from that part of the Philippine island. Fuck, I cannot select a band that I really like because of them made my ears bleed, gratefully. But name of bands popping on my head now is Zantilmo and Cooki Monster, hehe. This totally made my day, since last night I went to a pretty lame so-called metal gig here.
If you want to check out metal bandz in Visayas, get a load of this shit! - Fonda

CEPHALIC-BLASTED INTO LUNACY album (Germany)

Animate records, Walterstal 5409599 Freiberg, Germany / animate-records@web.de / www.animate-records.com

Photobucket

This speed metal band was actually recommended by a friend of mine to check out, and so I did. Undeniably, I like it. The fast hellish drumbeat, twisted technical riff blender & the guttural singing makes it fucking great. “Henkersbeil (whatever that means! Can someone tell me! ) and “Creation of Devastation” songs are the one’s to listen to.
I am making this review short and brief since the spirit of alcohol is successfully taking over my body now…- Fonda
