Once more into the breach comes Spearhead with a thunderous wall of English death metal. Since their well-received 2005 debut 'Deathless Steel Command', Spearhead has put time towards live performances and paused to assess their own particular brand of extreme metal. They return now with a re-formulation of their sound that abandons virtually any trace of their earlier blackened style. 'Decrowning the Irenarch' is instead a 38 minute barrage of crushing war metal that is somewhat reminiscent of early Bolt Thrower. Or later Bolt Thrower for that matter. They are both quite similar. As a complete album, 'Decrowning The Irenarch' works exceptionally well.

The tracks 'Prolegomenon' and 'Interregnum' establish the two halves of the album, and offer a brief respite before the second assault gets underway. When it does, the pace reverts back to face-ripping ferocity with precision double kicks and deathrash rhythms from Vortigern.

Aside from the brutal percussion, every track contains a mass of riffage and spontaneous evolving ideas which hark back to the time before death metal became bored with its own form. Nephilim performs jagged, wandering solos dripping with harmonics and lightning shreds through an assortment of classic tones. Although only two of the tracks ever break the five minute mark, you couldn't ask for more.

This is relentless. It is also a complex recording which only reveals its true depth with repeated listens. Building A Character Stanislavski Pdf Free Download.

The Latin and Greek subjects along with the sampled Shakespeare monologue explore classical themes directly and lyrically while avoiding the vapid posturing of many pseudo-intellectual metal elitists. There is even a nod to Bach's fugues buried within Nephilim's solo on 'In the Face of the Absolute'. Along with a move away from the black metal sound there has been a deliberate improvement to the production also. Recorded in Poland at Hertz Studio, the result is a wide, crisp and extremely loud final mix. The kicks attack with a 'click' rather than a 'blat', and reinforce the audible bass. The separate guitar lines are spacious and never bleed into the vocal's territory.

When things really kick off, there is some noticeable clipping, just to remind the listener that this is still an underground release, but otherwise the main impression is of a very clinical recording. 'Decrowning The Irenarch' is a bold step forward for Spearhead who are clearly intent on stepping up to the big leagues of death metal. This second album could quite easily be their ticket there. It is worthy of your attention.

I AM A FALSE PROPHET, GOD IS A SUPERSTITION June 6th, 2006, was a fateful day for Heavy Metal. For the first time since metal's birth, the dates have aligned to form a sort of tribute to the eternal muse down below 06-06-06. On this day, Slayer promised to release their new album, Christ Illusion, but bureaucratic setbacks pushed the release back to August. Determined to make the once in a life time chance mean something, Slayer promised to kick off their highly anticipated Unholy Alliance Tour on that day, but Tom Araya's gallbladder surgery pushed that back a week as well. So the fateful day went by with very little happening in the world of metal since one of the biggest bands managed to not pull through with any of their promises. Essentially the only thing that happened was that this was the day when Boston's PanzerBastard took form, and while this isn't quite as momentous an occasion as anything Slayer could've done (as shitty as Christ Illusion was), PanzerBastard delivers some extremely fast and solid Thrash.

2006 – 2009 is a compilation of three earlier demos, Hell Gate, Bastards Die Hard, and Boston. Personally, I find the Bastards Die Hard material to be the best of the lot, disregarding the asinine intro and outro that both consist of essentially one riff repeated over and over again for a few minutes. 'No God(s)', 'PanzerBastard', and 'Bastards Die Hard' are probably the best tracks on the whole compilation, it's just coincidence they all happen to be from the same demo. While some of the musicians have a background in hardcore and punk, not very much manages to seep through. This is Crossover of the thrashiest kind, and the hardcore vocals and blast beats never take away from the almighty riff (the latter actually improves most sections it appears in). Honestly, this reminds me of St. Rts Games Full Version on this page.
