S(crap)s: Domains / Dope Out / Epitimia / In My Shiver / Magoa
11/03/14 || Global Domination
Domains: Sinister ceremonies
Lord K: Sloppy’n‘tr00 blackened death metal that has its moments. It also has a shitty production. 5
Ironpants: Wow! Sloppy performance, but these dudes have some cool riffs going on. A better production and maybe a click-track for the drummer and it would’ve been awesome. 6
Cobal: Fascinating things, onomatopoeias. Chaaaaaan chan chan chan chaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan! I approve. 6
Habakuk: Nothing you haven’t heard before, but if it keeps the guys off the streets…? 6
sincan: Dark’n‘dirty death metal, just as it should be. Perfect production. 7
Dope Out: Bad seeds
Lord K: Seems like every rock band in the world finally found out about GD and decided to send us their shit. Get a fucken grip, idiots. 3
Ironpants: Tune in, turn on, dope out, bye bye! 3
Cobal: Probably their greatest moment is when they resemble a lamer version of Marilyn Manson, and even he would be ashamed. A bit. 2
Habakuk: Not bad at all, honestly. Still it would be even better if I was into unobtrusive, soft semi-punk rock more. 5
sincan: Dope out, penis in. 2
Epitimia: (un)Reality
Lord K: Too much for too long for no good reason whatsoever. 2
Ironpants: 2 discs (almost 2 hours) of Russian progressive/ambient black metal? That’s value for you right there if you are into that kind of stuff. I am not. 4
Cobal: It’s true it’s too long. I’m so into it. 7
Habakuk: Fuck double discs. 3
sincan: If you’re on to something decent, don’t make it into a double disc album. 5
In My Shiver: Delicate poison
Lord K: It’s giving me the shivers. BOOM! 3
Ironpants: What’s going on here? Depressive rock with black metal vocals. Not my cup of semen, but I guess it isn’t that bad? 5
Cobal: I would have appreciated a heavier approach. Not that bad indeed. 5
Habakuk: Why am I listening to this again? Oh, because I have to. 2
sincan: I could hear a great riff or two, but overall a bit dull. The clean vocals sounds like someone being a little too drunk (and also too young?). 4
Magoa: Topsy torvydom
Lord K: Just… wow. Again: Just… WOW! We’re entering new lows by the minute around here. The goo in the moniker make sense. 2
Ironpants: Well fuck me with a wire brush… in the dickhole. From the bottom of my cock , please disband! 2
Cobal: Get rid of the vocals and you could call it even with the dopes above. Wasn’t this in fact recorded with an iPad, Sincan? 1
Habakuk: This screams puberty. 4
sincan: Wow, the singer must be really mad since he didn’t get the new iPad. The amount of short hair and eyeliner must be illegal in this one. 1
After going thru that crap, you most likely wanna read something way more interesting. You do, admit it.
