Juggernørt - Hooligan
It is their purpose to be on a stage performing and delivering a show to remember. They are tired of being trapped by the walls of normality.

Obszon Geschopf - Highway Of Horrors
Obszön Geschöpf is a mis-translation of "obscene creature" in German the correct is spelled Obszönes Geschöpf but I prefer the spelling Obszön Geschöpf. OG was originally formed in 1996 by the wonderful Remzi Kelleci who is normally joined by a backing band for live shows.<br><br>Being an avid Obszön Geschöpf fan since hearing Cauldron of Human Fle...

Azrath-11 - Ov Tentacles And Spirals
A band from Gorizia – does a place of that name really exist? Quite fitting when you see the genre, although I still have a hard time imagining an Italian singing extreme metal for some reason but Azrath-11 quite clearly are masters of extreme judging by this album. Not sure where the 11 comes into it unless the band have had 10 line-up changes and...

And so the unholy Luna Ad Noctum were founded in 1998 and hail from Poland. With 3 full length albums under their black belts and now with the addition of “Hypnotic Inferno” these Polish monsters are notching up some grim awareness.<br><br>Not having heard the band before but think I will be keeping my eye on these guys as their sound is well produ...

Syn:Drom - Iconoclasm
Syn:Drom was formed in Sundsvall Sweden in 2002 with the intention of making superb death metal the way the members like it! In 2006 after a couple of years of demo recordings the self-released EP “Birth Of A Dark Empire” got to see the light of day. The sound had developed into a concrete wall of brutal death metal with a mix of both European and...

Forlorn Chambers - Unborn And Hollow
Forlorn Chambers seem to have sprung up from nowhere as their Facebook page suggests. There is no clue to who or how many people are in the band, but I love a good mystery and hoping despite that, that what is contained here within these tracks are good, wholesome and full of death!<br><br>The band’s cover is also full of intrigue and mystery and i...

Drift Of Genes - Excruciating Severe Laceration
With immediate excitement, I clicked on the latest download from BRUTALISM.com to check what had arrived in my inbox and on closer inspection I realized that this little bundle of putridity was created by a lone guy that goes under the name of Spasm, who is not only the string and the bass section but also the vocal chords of Drift Of Genes, and ha...
