Vrykolakas - Nocturnal Demons Of Death
This band from “Singapork” as they call Singapore on their page, lives up to its claim of playing unrelenting brutality. This band does just that. They live up to BRUTALISM.com’s claim for and support of SUPREME BRUTAL ART. The CD, NOCTURNAL DEMONS OF DEATH, opens with a cool repetitious and gradually loudening noisy jam called “Eternal Fire/Dark Eternal Flames” and then ties down the braces for the rest of the ride. And the ride is fabulous. The next track, “Soulless Flesh, Fleshless Soul” is a balls-out act of metal in which the guitars, the vocals, and the beats are all pounding away in a heavy texture of brutal death.
The CD does not slow down until half way through with “Nuthfah.” It is not really that the CD slows down, but the heavy textures that are so evident in the first half begin to go flat the closer the CD gets to the end. For instance, the second to last track, “Baptism To Beelzebub” is just sort of dirty trash metal. Not only is trash metal very DONE, but it was never good in the first place. We know that Vrykolakas has serious metal brutality talent so it is just a shame to end on such a downer point. ‘Til net release fellows!
