Two of the most savage underground US extreme metal bands join forces with Stygian Black Hand once again with a pummeling split mini-LP.
Since thrice selling out their highly coveted eponymous demo tape and releasing a highly regarded international split EP, Primitive Warfare continue their rapid rise to infamy with their side of this split, “Undulating Torment”. It’s no surprise that Primitive Warfare’s hyperblasting mania drew the attention of fans worldwide, and the mindblowingly fast brand of war metal they force down the listeners throat is only sharpened further here. Most impressively, drummer Pu239’s technicality is brought to the forefront right away, with some of the most inventive and standout technique in the contemporary war metal underground. But guitarist U235 stays right on his heels, with wristbreaking riffs that prove that this two-piece is locked in and ready to destroy. There is little time to breathe as Primitive Warfare barrel through four frenzied blast-fests, with a mere two-count‘s warning, if any at all, before the listener is bombarded with sonic artillery and dueling high/low register vocal commands. For fans of Revenge, Conqueror, Caveman Cult, and Black Witchery.

This is about as good as OSDM gets, to be honest. Blood Incantation are quickly building a pretty flawless discography of modern classics and every release just improves and evolves their sound. Stellar stuff (literally). Colin Kauffman

Relapse introduced me to Baroness via a sampler in 2008 or 2009 and they've had my implicit trust since. Thanks for making these wonderful samplers available on Bandcamp (I'd much rather pay for them on here than get them for free on Amazon anyway). Can't wait to dig in and find some new faves! menee
Pulverizing, brutal, extreme and surreal black metal from this UK one-man project, “Vessel of Iniquity” is the sound of terror. Bandcamp New & Notable Dec 30, 2017
Suffocating black metal in the Swedish style that mercifully throws in a bit of melody to save the listener from total darkness. Bandcamp New & Notable Jun 29, 2017
