DEMONS WITHIN- SHROUD OF DECEPTION AND SELF TITLED DEMOS 2 IN 1 REVIEW!!






Here comes a malevolent onslaught 5 piece band known as Demons Within hailing from Ohio. Filled with groove sounding Death Metal riffs and beats that will excel to a higher level of intensity and reach numerous extreme music fans around the world. Vocals that are exceptionally barbaric guttural growls and brutal screams which are surpassing most vocalists nowadays. Both of these Demos are utterly striking with each song represented in each. Having shared the same stage as United By Hate, this band is on the prowl and ready to attack its prey. Both demos are a bit different sounding with the production, but I have to give this band a lot of credit for how talented they are. With a crushing blow to the head, the self titled Demo receives a 5/5 stars because of the song Heaven Shall Burn which I feel is the most fierce one on the demo. However the Demo entitled Shroud of Deception gets a 4.5/5 stars only because I didn't find the production quality to be as bad ass as the first one mentioned, but this band is stellar in its style and will continue to do so and  be one that should be in any metal fans collection. So if you like bands like United By Hate, Lamb of God & Cannibal Corpse (with Chris Barnes), to name a few, then give the band Demons Within an ear so you can hear and listen to what they're all about. Trust me, you won't be unsatisfied. So metalheads, until next time...this is EVILVENGEANCE666 saying KEEP SUPPORTING UNDERGROUND METAL, UNDERGROUND NOISE AND KEEP YOUR HORNS UP!!! \m/-_-\m/

EXMORTUS/HATCHET/DAEMONIUS SHOW




EXMORTUS

HATCHET

DAEMONIUS


This entry was meant to be written a month ago, but felt I'd wait it out until now and tell all of you about this awesome show that went down one night here in Las Vegas New Mexico. Both Exmortus & Hatchet hailing from California threw down some killer sounding Thrash & Heavy Metal that night that just tore it up in a small crowd that made it feel like thousands were there. Local Black/Death Metal band Daemonius was there to support and open up the show along with showing what they've got with a couple of new songs which are very amazing indeed. A few instances with both Exmortus & Hatchet was the intricate and technical solos that each of the guitarists had played and talk about INCREDIBLE & STUNNING SKILLS!!! This one for instance with Exmortus was when Conan & David did back to back guitar playing opposite guitars doing magnificent solos which was once a Van Halen move, but it just impressed this town so much that we wanted more! All of these bands deserve recognition and major props for their kick ass devotion for Underground Metal and their terrific attitudes which makes them definitely fun dudes to party with after a show, during a show and before the show as well. This show is one that is clearly one that won't ever be forgotten and is remarkably one of the best I've ever witnessed to appreciate for the value of how much fun it was for sure. If it wasn't for Clarisse, my girlfriend for putting on the show, then we wouldn't have had a show. I'm so glad it happened and all of these bands and her as well deserve the utmost respect and hails because of bringing METAL to a whole new level, so BRING MORE!!!! Also might I add, it was cool to chill with both bands Exmortus & Hatchet on my lunch break at work and after the show as well. Anyhow my metalhead friends across the globe, send me some feedback. Let me know if there are any bands you are looking for me to review or interview. This is EVILVENGEANCE666 saying, later!!!!!

BLOODSHOT DAWN- SELF TITLED ALBUM REVIEW







Here's a really cool band you should check out known as Bloodshot Dawn.  Matching their Melodic Death Metal sounds with Thrash Metal is what will grind you into a new dimension of the unknown. Promising riffs that will please listeners of Dark Tranquillity (without keyboards though), Gorguts, Necrophagist, Obscura and Dethklok to name a few. Bloodshot Dawn is very technical and very crushing. The guitar tones are insanely one that are very intense, drums that are clear as day, great bass lines and vocals that will slash your chest. This band is totally one you should have in your collection if you don't by now. So if you want a severe beating, then look no further because Bloodshot Dawn really packs a mean punch, just to be warned. This is their debut album, and I believe that the world audience will enjoy and have something new to look forward to. Coming from The United Kingdom is where the band Bloodshot Dawn dwell. This 11 song album which is self-titled will tear you apart and not let go until it wants more of you to listen to them. For being a debut album, I'm going to throw this band a 4.75/5 stars only because I can definitely see this band growing more energetic over time along with how they have enforced their own killer sound regardless. So metalheads, if you like the UK metal scene, don't let this one slip by you because Bloodshot Dawn deserves a chance to hit the road and see the skies of the lands around the planet for years to come. Just remember these few things. Support the Underground Metal scene, support Bloodshot Dawn, support Underground Noise & MOST OF ALL METALHEADS: KEEP YOUR HORNS UP!!!! This is EVILVENGEANCE666 signing off. \m/-_-\m/

INFERNAL TENEBRA- NEW FORMED REVELATIONS (ALBUM REVIEW)






Eight tracks of superb intense Death/Thrash/Black Metal is what makes this impressive third full length. Hailing from the land of Croatia is where you'll find the mighty four piece band known as Infernal Tenebra. If you're into bands like Vader, Kreator, early Behemoth, Cannibal Corpse, Carcass and Dark Tranquillity to name a few, then you won't hesitate to spin with this album shredding your ears. Every song is full of virtue, exuberant & astonishingly excellent ways of being composed. This is a band and album you won't want to pass up! Combining three elements of metal to their sound is what makes Infernal Tenebra stand out from a lot of Underground Metal bands. These Croatians came to dominate for being leaders in the genre of music in their country. They really blast away in some spots, and in other spots the solos involve a lot of tapping sweep arpeggio type skills in order to provide the listener with clarity and diversity with harmonization and brutal catchy rhythmic riffs. If you are into extreme music, then don't hesitate any further and pick up this killer album. It's one that will leave you exhilarated and wanting to taste more of what Infernal Tenebra has to offer. Vocals that are abyssal and guttural mixed with mid-range screams along with a small touch of clean vocals as well. Immerse your yourselves into Infernal Tenebra's world and be embraced by the actions of their proficiency to prove to the world that they have expertise in what they do. I can't really find a favorite song on this album, and I guess you could say that the whole album is by far a marvelous masterpiece in its abundance and great ambition and ability, which shouldn't be missed by any Metal music fan for that matter. So if you're looking for something NEW to check out, give Infernal Tenebra a jam, and jam the whole album all the way through. New Found Revelations is getting a 5/5 stars based on just how fascinating the whole album was created, produced and the artwork is wickedly effective to get just about anyone who loves this stuff to go out and support the band. Until next time METALHEADS around the Earth, KEEP SUPPORTING UNDERGROUND METAL, SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL MUSIC SCENE, SUPPORT UNDERGROUND NOISE AND INFERNAL TENEBRA AND MOST OF ALL METALHEADS: ALWAYS KEEP YOUR HORNS UP!! \m/-_-\m/ EVILVENGEANCE666

A DEADLY WISH- LIFE MINUS YOU (ALBUM REVIEW)






Take this awesome four piece band known as A Deadly Wish and fuse the sounds of Metalcore with a small touch of Death Metal and that's what makes this band a promising band to anyone who is into this style of music. Coming from California is A Deadly Wish, one that destroys LIVE as well as in the studio. Awesome harmonic with brutal riffs and scathing screaming vocals with a blend of growling and some clean vocals that made me a believer that this band will get stronger and much more kick ass in time. If you like bands like Devildriver, A Day To Remember and As I Lay Dying, then these guys are right up your alley. The album Life Minus You focuses the listener into a realm that will make them want more of A Deadly Wish. This band will grow on you. They have an ability to express their talent fluently and are very impressive. If you are looking for a NEW Metalcore band to check out, don't pass up this band called A Deadly Wish. Life Minus You is getting a 5/5 stars just based on who and how they are and sound. Very cool guys to chill with before and after a show for sure. So metalheads across the globe, this is EVILVENGEANCE666 telling all of you to keep supporting METAL, support the underground and most of all; keep those horns up!!! \m/-_-\m/

MAGNANIMVS- STORMS OF CHAOTIC REVELATIONS (ALBUM REVIEW)






Who's ready to have their ears blasted once again? Take this 3 piece band known as Magnanimvs & dive into their world of super intense and thundering relentless drum blasting with killer double bass drumming that is abysmal, bass tones that are unfathomable and dark which smash your face in, guitar that has swirling pinched harmonics in the second song called The Dark Spear of Condemnation and vocals which bash in your skull with with a sledgehammer. Magnanimvs are a high tech blend compounded of Black Metal & Death Metal. This band will batter you to no end from start to finish, this is one bad ass album which makes the listeners a bit more aware that some bands are getting stronger with what they do. Magnanimvs won't disappoint fans of Behemoth, early Vader, Immortal, Krisiun & Gorgoroth to name a few. If you like your metal extreme as hell, then this will quench your thirst for more than what you probably had expected. Storms of Chaotic Revelations is getting a 5/5 stars based on how incredible this album is within its entirety. Remember metalheads, this is EVILVENGEANCE666 telling all of you to keep supporting UNDERGROUND metal and your local music scene, keep shredding metal & MOST OF ALL: KEEP YOUR HORNS UP!!! \m/-_-\m/

INTERVIEW WITH FORMER SUFFOCATION DRUMMER MICHAEL SMITH!!!





Here's the LATEST interview for Underground Noise. I'm very honored and excited to announce that Michael Smith former drummer of legendary band Suffocation is now in the band Synesis Absorption, and here to answer my questions. Without any further do, here it is!!

UN: What prompted you to become a musician?

MS: Most everyone in my family is heavily into music, in one form or another It's in my blood. I've always been surrounded by instruments and singing and all things involved. It was a natural path for me.

UN: What do you like best about being a drummer?

MS: Drummers are responsible for adding the different emotions to a song. With the beat you can direct the attention of the listeners to follow all else that is going on in the song. If you have flavor to do so, of course.

UN: Since you've departed from Suffocation, do you miss anything about being with them?

MS: I don't miss being with the individuals, I definitely felt held back with the progression of the band. The mentality was just old, and not aggressive enough to take advantage of the current industry. My goal is always to evolve and influence others to evolve. I miss being in the face of the fans, nothing else.

UN: Where has been your favorite place to perform and why?

MS: NY & Los Angeles. NY is my home and California is just metal all day and night.

UN: How did you get into Death Metal & Extreme Metal?

MS: I'm into all forms of music one way or another, but I chose to find the least understood and obscure form of music in order to stay constantly challenged and differ from mainstream music.

UN: What is your favorite type of drums to use?

MS: Properly tuned and maintained ones. It doesn't matter which brand, if all the pieces are there, I will play the same.

UN: Who are your most major influences, both personally and musically?

MS: My parents. They've housed every band I've played in and allowed us to create our craft to what it is today. Not many parents would do the same, especially Death Metal. Other than that I'm influenced by the skill level of the musicians in Jazz and Classical and the singing and the musical influence of the Motown era.

UN: Do you have a career besides music?

MS: Since I've left the touring life, by day I'm a Metal Fabricator. I weld and create shit the world needs and uses daily from raw steel. I'm a drum teacher, as well a hired studio drummer when I'm not at the day job.

UN: Any last words for Underground Noise?

MS: The music industry is on a steady decline....but the musicians will always remain and be the most important element. If we as musicians focus on getting back into just writing music, sharing, owning and raising the bar one song at a time, we will quickly find out that we didn't need the "industry". The musician will always speak the loudest. I've been busy working the platform for all of us. Musicians, check it out. www.dmmcompany.com
