Jarhead Fertilizer - Product Of My Environment

 

Full of Hell released a great live album but so did Jarhead Fertilizer, the band of Dave Bland, the drummer of FoH. 'Product of My Environment' is a deathgrind journey into criminality and it’s perfect for these times. 


Released in February on Closed Casket Activities, it’s an album that keeps getting better the more you listen to it. With its movie references and Mortician cover 'Drowned In Your Blood', David, Brandon, and Sam sound like they played their guts out. There is so much energy in every song that you really feel the need to go to a live show and bang your head on this. Just listen to 'Life Is A Prison', 'Silence The Narc', and 'Paranoia Seeping'. Don’t you wish you were in the moshpit already?  

With 11 songs that cover 20 minutes, the journey is over far too quickly, but you know, I’ve got more things to do and because of that I must say thank you Jarhead for making me do other things that really need to be done……..instead of listening to Product Of My Environment again….. 

Tracklist: 

1. Intro
2. Product Of My Environment
3. Trials And Tribulations
4. Silence The Narc
5. Paranoia Seeping
6. Embedded In Your Mind
7. Baptized By Fire
8. An End To Your Sacred World
9. Drowned In Your Blood
10. Agony Churning
11. Life is a Prison

Derhead - Irrational I

Image
Back in the 2000s, I read an article about Finnish black metal band …And Oceans that combined black metal and electronics. I started to look for any songs that I could download on the web (I didn’t know anything about Napster or Limewire). I found one and that was Odious and Devious. I really liked the cold they put in the music. This EP by Derhead called 'Irrational I' has got the same cold gloom on it.  Tracklist: 1. The End For Now 2. Corpses Of Desires This one-man project from Giorgio Barrucco makes black metal in the …And Oceans kind of way, cold, icy and with a hint of industrial. That’s what makes this record stand out, the feeling of being surrounded by ice and icicles that can pierce right through you. Started in the 2000s, Giorgio has made several demo's and an EP as Derhead and he also plays bass in gothic metal band The Void. He's a busy man and luckily he made time to create this gem. With snarling vocals, crazy black cold metal riffs and menacing drum wo

Wills Dissolve - Echoes

Image
On the 28th Of August, progressive death metal band Wills Dissolve releases their second album 'Echoes' on Hypnotic Dirge Records.  Tracklist: 1. Echoes (31:36) With just one track that lasts half an hour the band from Houston, Texas takes you on a journey into the endless void of space. To name their record ' Echoes ' takes guts. Obviously, the band is hugely influenced by Pink Floyd and their masterpiece ' Echoes ' is unparalleled. However, Wills Dissolve pulls out all the stops. They paint a science fictional picture of a star-filled purple vortex. In the end, a giant black hole lurks, like the mouth of an all-devouring cosmic giant.   The story is about an astronaut who travels to the outer rims of space to find a new home for humanity. Musically we hear a wide variety of influences; the clean guitar parts take you back to the quieter parts Rush's 2112 with Mikael Akerfeldt from Opeth on vocals. When the death metal kicks in the growls sound like the O

Crypts - Coven of The Dead

Image
  Formed in 2018, the death metal band Crypts makes old school death metal in the likes of Bolt Thrower and Autopsy. With their experience in black-, power-, and doom metal, Coven of The Dead is an album filled with promising ideas.  Hailing from Münster, Germany, these guys have made a debut album to definitely be proud of. Their sound is gnarly, groovy and dirty at the same time. The artwork by Sebastian Jerke resembles the music perfectly.  Death metal needs to be definable and on this record, you hear everything, especially the drums, which actually sound like drums! 'Deathking Coronation' and 'Nuclear Vengeance' are perfect examples of that. It makes the band sound original and very interesting to listen to. And that's not the only thing that makes this album interesting, they do not just play death metal, but there are some trash/heavy metal influences on 'Final War' and some death-doom/horror soundtrack influences on the title track and 'Paura'
