Legion Of Andromeda/Iron Scorn/Crucial Blast/2015 CD Review


  Legion  Of  Andromeda  are  a  band  from  Japan  that  plays  doom/death  metal  with  elements  of  industrial  and  black  metal  and  this is  a  review  of  their  2015  album  "Iron  Scorn"  which  will  be  released  in  August  by  Crucial  Blast.

  A  very  dark  old  school  doom/death  metal  sound  starts  off  the  album  along  with  some  growling  vocals  and  elements  of  industrial  and  the  vocals  also  add  in  a  touch  of  black  metal  at  times  and  all  of  the  music  is  very  heavily  rooted  in  the  early  to  mid  90's  style  of  extreme  metal and  some  of  the  tracks  are  long  and  epic  in  length.

   All  of  the  drum  beats  are  programmed  and  some  of  the  songs  also  bring  in  elements  of  drone  and  all of  the  songs  also  stick  to  either  a  slow  or  mid  paced  musical  direction  with  no  fast  parts  ever  being  present  in  any  of  the  tracks  and  the  whole  album  also  remains  heavy from  beginning to  ending  of  the  recording.

  Legion  Of  Andromeda  plays  a  style  of  doom/death  metal  that  is  very  old  school  and  also  mixes  it  in  with  the  90's  industrial  metal  sound  and  a  touch  of  black  metal  to  create  a  sound of  their  own,  the  production  sounds  very  dark  and  heavy  while  the  lyrics  cover  dark  and  violent  themes.

  In  my  opinion Legion  Of  Andromeda  are  a  very  great  sounding  industrial  doom/death  metal  band  with  a  touch  of  black  metal  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of  those  musical  genres,  you  should  check  out  this  band.  RECOMMENDED  TRACKS  INCLUDE  "Cosmo  Hammer"  "Scourge  Of  Pestilence"  and  "Fist  Of  Hammurabi".  8  out  of  10.

Doomed/Wrath Monolith/Solitude Productions/2015 CD Review


  Doomed  are  a  band  from  Germany  that  plays  an  atmospheric  form  of  funeral  doom/death  metal  and  this  is  a  review of  their 2015  album  "Wrath  Monolith"  which  was  released  by  Solitude  Productions.

   A  very  dark and  tragic  sounding  keyboard  giving  the  music an avant garde  classical  feeling  and  after  a  minute  the  music  starts  to get  heavier  and  brings  in  a  doom  metal  sound  along  with  some death  metal  growls  and  a  small  amount  of  black  metal  screams  and  the  music  also  brings  in  a  great  amount  of  melodic  guitar  leads.

  A  great  portion  of  the  tracks  are  very  long  and  epic  in  length  and  spoken  word  parts  can  also  be  heard  in  certain  sections  of  the  recording  and  they  also  mix  the  heavy  and  keyboard  parts  together  to  give the  songs  more  of  an  atmospheric  feeling  and  some  songs  also  bring  in  a  small  amount  of  acoustic  guitars.

 One  of  the  tracks  also  brings  in  electronic  music  elements  and  female opera  vocals  while  the  main  focus  remains  on  a  slow  and  heavy  doom/death  style  while  the  music  does  speed  up  for  a  few  seconds  and  also  brings  in  a  brief  use  of  blast  beats  and  almost towards  the  end  on  of  the  songs  also  brings  in  clean  singing male  vocals  and  all  of  the  musicla  instruments  have  a  very  powerful  sound  to  them.

  Doomed  plays  a  style of  funeral  doom  metal  that  is  very  atmospheric and  also  mixes  it  in  with  the  90's  doom/death  metal  style  to  create  their  own  sound,  the  production  sounds  very  professional  while  the  lyrics  are  a  concept  album  based  on  the  crisis  of  the  modern world.

  In  my  opinion  Doomed  are  a  very  great  sounding  atmospheric  funeral  doom/death  metal  band  and  if you  are  a  fan  of  this  musical  genre,  you  should  check  out  this  recording.  RECOMMENDED  TRACKS  INCLUDE  "Paradoxon"  and  "Looking  Back".  8  out  of  10.

  A  very  dark  and  heavy  doom  metal  sound  starts  off  the  album  with  some  morbid  sounding  melodies  and  all  of  the  musical  instruments  have  a  very  powerful  sound  to  them  and  when  vocals  are  added  into  the  music  they are  done  in  more  of  a  clean  singing  fashion  and  all  of  the  tracks  are  very  long  and epic  in  length.

  When  guitar  solos  and  leads  are  utilized  they  remain  true  to  a  melodic  style  of  doom  metal  and  when  high  pitched  screams  are  utilized  they  bring  elements  of  black  metal  into  the  bands  musical  style  and  after  awhile  the  band  starts  bringing  in  more  traces  of  post  rock  and  shoegaze  in  the leads and  as  the  album  progresses  acoustic  guitars  can  be  heard  in certain  sections  of  the  recording  along  with  the  music  getting  more  dreamy,  psychedelic  and  atmospheric  and  on  one  of  the  tracks  the  music  speeds up  briefly  and  adds  in  a  brief  use  of  blast  beats  and  the  last track  is  an  ambient  drone  instrumental.

  Slow  Worm  plays  a  musical  style  that  is  mostly  rooted  in  the  traditional  style  of  doom  metal  but  brings  in  the  heaviness of  sludge,  elements of black  metal,  psychedelic,  shoegaze,  ambient  and  post  rock  to  create  a  sound  of  their  own,  the  production  sounds  very  powerful  while  the  lyrics  cover  occult  and  metaphysical  themes.

  In  my  opinion  Slow  Worm  are  a  very  great  sounding  mixture  of  sludge,  doom  metal  and  shoegaze  with  a  touch  of  post  black  metal  and  if  you  are a  fan  of  those  musical  genres,  you  should  check  out  this  band.  RECOMMENDED  TRACKS  INCLUDE  "Crypt  of  The  Vultures"  and  "Where  I  Creep,  The  Light  Is  Shy".  8  out  of  10.

  Guitar  amp  sounds,  reverb's  and  noises  start  off  the  song  before  going  into  bass  guitar  riffs  that  are  in  more  of  a  funeral  doom metal  direction  and  the whole  song  is  mostly  instrumental  and  sticks  to  a  slow  musical  direction  and  only  brings  in  a  few  seconds  of  clean  bass guitars  while  mostly  being  very  heavy  throughout  its  40  minutes  and the  second  have of  the  track  goes  for  more  of  an  ambient  style  briefly  before  returning back  to  a  heavier  direction  as  well  as  adding  in  screams  that  are  heavily  influenced  by  black  metal.

  Powerful  sounding  bass  guitars  start  off  the  ep  before  adding  in  deep  and  guttural  death  metal  growls  and  the  bass  also  takes  over  as  a  lead  instrument  and  brings  a  doom  metal  sound  to  the  recording  and  the  drums  bring  a  funeral  march  feeling  to  the  recording  and there  is  also  a  brief  use  of  blast  beats.

Viscera/// Interview


1.For those that have never heard of you before, can you tell us a little bit about the band?


We were born in 2000 as a death-grind outfit with a different name. In 2003 we became Viscera and in 2006 finally Viscera///. What else…maybe we’ll go deeper with the next questions.


2.So far you have released a few length and a split ep, how would you describe the musical sound that is presented on both of the recordings and also how do they differ from each other?


Our releases history perfectly describes our musical path in its entirety. The early days production is more harsh and bonded to grindcore and death metal, but the more we grew up the more our style has become open to many new influences and, slowly but painfully, doom, psychedelic, drone, ambient and black metal elements took permanetly place into our style.


3.The band has been around since 2000 but so far has only put out 2 releases, can you tell us a little bit more the gap in between recordings?

It’s true we’ve only published only two full-lenght albums but you can count many other parallel releases. But if the question is strictly about the proper albums things, well, i can just say that we take all the time we need before we decide to book the studio and get it.



4.On the ep you had team up with Abaton, how would you compare their own musical style to yours?


Briefly, I guess that Abaton’s way is far more cerebral compared to ours, which is more immediate.


5.What are some of the lyrical topics and subjects the band explores with the music?


I always write about myself and how I see things. And it’s never positive stuff. 


6.What is the meaning and inspiration behind the name 'Viscera///'?


The monicker Viscera(///) came out during the grind days. It’s just gore stuff but we decided to keep it. The “///” have been added later because the australian Viscera complained about the homonymy.


7.What are some of the best shows that the band has played so far and also how would you describe your stage performance?


We have been playing so many shows in the last 15 years that it’s kinda rough to find some specific highlights…maybe a couple of years ago at Incubate Festival in Tilburg (NL) or a couple of months ago in Jerusalem, but that was more about the fact we were in fucking Israel! And about “how” we fit on stage, I can just say it’s real pain because I suffer from stage fright and the other two guys have similar problems. I guess the audience can feel the suffering and it definitely works.


8.Do you have any touring or show plans for the future?


Of course. We’ll have an eurotour in october with fellows Fleshworld, then some one-shot gig around Italy. Besides we are working on 2016 and it seems that something hot is gonna happen.


9.On a worldwide level how has the feedback been to your music by fans of drone, sludge and doom metal?


I think that really few people clearly understand what we effectively want to come out with. Maybe due to this and other reasons basically no one gives a fuck about about us.


10.When can we expect another full length and also where do you see the band heading into musically during the future?


New album will be recorded this summer but we don’t think this new release will open a brighter future to us.


11.What are some of the bands or musical styles that have had an influence on your music and also what are you listening to nowadays?


Our main influences are Godflesh, Carcass, Celtic Frost, Paradise Lost, industrial music and psychedelic stuff from the 70’s, but lately we are crazy for 80’s music, specially Phil Collins. 


12.What are some of your non musical interests?


Cinema, crime facts, the bloodiest events in history, covert politics, loathing and one of us owns a motorcycle.


13.Before we wrap up this interview, do you have any final words or thoughts?


Please care about Viscera///, you fuckers. We blame you for our miserable condition.
