30 Years Ago: ATOMIC AGGRESSOR release Resurrection demo

Killer Chilean, Lovecraftian death metal; ATOMIC AGGRESSOR released their last demo on this day in 1991. Resurrection was the second demo. Bloody Ceremonial was released in 1989 and the only other material was a rehearsal tape in 1990. Great raw sound influenced by MORBID ANGEL & POSSESSED! Atomic...

35 Years Ago: Cogumelo Release Warfare Noise Compilation

With Warfare Noise I, Brazil and - in a way - the rest of world, paid more attention to Belo Horizonte. The bands were really good at the musical level. Of course, things weren't so great when it came to organization. Most bands here didn't have that entrepreneur...

20 Years Ago: BOLT THROWER release Honour - Valour - Pride

...we started recording it in June and we finished mixing it in the middle of September. It was done at Sable Rose studio in Coventry, and Andy Faulkner co-produced. It was the longest we had spent in the studio - we wrote a few riffs and vocals in...

30 Years Ago: INCANTATION release Deliverance of Horrific Prophecies

I think the recording was good for us. It ended up being more of a demo for us so we can hear a good recording of some of our newer songs at the time. It was good preparation for “Onward To Golgotha”. We realized we played the songs...

35 Years Ago: SEPULTURA release Morbid Visions

Totally different from the EP, it was recorded in a 16 track studio and we had a week to record it. The songs are faster & heavier than those on the EP. And the production is also much better. So I can tell you it has everything to...

30 Years Ago: SUFFOCATION release Effigy of the Forgotten

I wouldn't change anything. The recording. The technique we had. What it took to play. How we approached music. That said, it being 30 years old, I never thought anyone would've paid attention to it. It is underground music. I'm thankful I'm able to do it to this...

30 Years Ago: PUNGENT STENCH release Been Caught Buttering

We never had any goals while writing music - it just came naturally and we tried to think outside the box. That's why you hear influences from 70's rock to doom metal on this album. The recordings were even more chaotic than on "For God...", because we booked...

30 Years Ago: GORGUTS release Considered Dead

Everywhere we've played, it's been good. Like, with the in-store we did here (in Denver), I think it reflects how the album is doing. A lot of people showed up. Many had the album, and a lot of people like it. It's real good. It's beyond what we...

25 Years Ago: MORGOTH release Feel Sorry for the Fanatic

The "Feel Sorry for the Fanatic" record in my opinion still is one of our best albums, but it's just not Death Metal and we probably should not have released it under the name Morgoth. Releasing that album was the right decision at that time. I actually don't...

25 Years Ago: HUMAN REMAINS release Using Sickness as a Hero

I think it could have been better, but it represented us kind of well. I wasn't too happy with the mix; there was too much reverb on the drums. Next time we'll be better. Dave Witte / Human Remains interview, Chronicles of Chaos, 1996 HUMAN REMAINS released their...

25 Years Ago: AGATHOCLES release Thanks for Your Hostility

Aaahh a cool songs but again a crappy sound. We had to do the drums again for this one (because of a lack of $$$ it had to be done fast). It's the same as with the BCD CD the songs that we still play sound 100000 times...

30 Years Ago: DISSECTION release Into Infinite Obscurity

They've signed with the new French label CORPSE GRINDER Rec. for a 7". They'll enter Sunlight Studios (ENTOMBED, THERION, CARNAGE, DRAK THRONE, etc.) to record three new songs and possibly one of the demo. Recently they've recruited a new guitarist called John Zwetsloot and surely their music will...

MORBID ANGEL hails from Tampa, Florida, where it was formed in early 1984 by Trey Azagthoth (guitar), Mike Browning (drums, vocals), and Dallas Ward (bass).

There are bigger worlds for us to find if we just wake up and looking at things in a different ways. Not always take things for granted. The art show how limited human are today. He is sleeping a beautiful dreams and don't see those weird stuff going...

I describe our sound as hate-filled, uncompromising, relentless, riff shredding darkness that eats the listener alive.

25 Years Ago: SINISTER release Bastard Saints

Sinister stands for something brutal and aggressive, and we want to keep it that way. Even if we're going to sound a little bit different - like Bastard Saints, for example, is totally different from Cross the Styx - still, it's the Sinister sound. Mike van Mastrigt /...

30 Years Ago: MORTICIAN release Mortal Massacre

MORTICIAN was formed in October 1989 by Matt [Sicher] and I, hoping to make an all brutal death grind band. We've just finished two new songs called "Mortal Massacre" and "Drilling for Brains" and we're working on more. Hopefully on the next demo, there will be at least...
