-INTERNATIONAL REVIEW-
BAND: Night Attack
EP: NECROMANCER
LABEL: Night Attack

From the furnaces of North Carolina, USA, Night Attack spew forth a feral, ferocious and primal form of primordial, Black-Death Metal that draws upon the filth-encrusted cesspools of murky malevolence pioneered by bands such as Venom, Possessed, Vintage Death, early Bathory, classic Carcass and Hellhammer that is deftly infused with a lethal dose of clinical Thrash emblematic of Kreator, Destruction and Exodus.

Their latest release, the frenzied, four track EP titled ‘NECROMANCER’ is an exercise in artery bursting, blistering, Thrash suffused primal Black-Death Metal that will cause you to bang your head with glee as you experience its pummeling plethora of neck snapping riffs, bludgeoning drumming and rasping vocals that remind this reviewer of Jeff Walker from Carcass as much as they do Cronos from Venom and Jeff Becerra from Possessed.

The production on ‘NECROMACER’ may be crystalline and sparkling with clarity yet rest assured that the music conjured forth by Night Attack is as murderous and filthy as a back alley stabbing and as smoldering as the fumes from a witches cauldron.

Opening with the frenetic rhythms and riff-driven ferocity of title track ‘Necromancer’ said EP begins in a volcanic fashion and does not relent until its last track concludes its runtime.

Track two ‘Blitzkrieg’ is a blistering display of devastating double kick battery and tempestuous tempos which segues into the surging, scorch and swagger of track three ‘Sektor B’, an explosive display of scathing Black-Death with skin shredding solos and skull crunching rhythms.

Ending the pummeling proceedings with triumphant turbulence is track four ‘Mosh And Thrash’, a roller-coaster ride constructed from thorny riffing, double kick battery and peppered with propulsive guitar theatrics.

Due to be released on September the 19th, Night Attack’s third release ‘NECROMANCER’ is an exercise in expertly crafted, Thrash imbued Black-Death Metal that is an homage to the vintage vitriol of yore as well as being a pristine piece of punishing Primal extreme Metal executed with modern flare.

-LOCAL REVIEW-
BAND: Walk These Skies
EP: I’D RATHER DIE THAN BECOME WHAT YOU’VE MADE ME
LABEL: Walk These Skies

Hailing from South Africa, Walk These Skies unleash a maelstrom of catchy and crushing Melodic Metalcore that bristles with bludgeoning riffs, brutal breakdowns, impassioned vocals and propulsive rhythms that are as catchy as an airborne contagion.

Featuring Trystan Bruce on vocals, Marcelle Van De Heever on lead guitar, Matt Nijland on rhythm guitar, Emilio Savioli on drums and Brandon Jansen Van Rensburg on Bass, this five member battalion conjure forth Melodic Metalcore of the most passionate sort.

Their EP ‘I’D RATHER DIE THAN BECOME WHAT YOU’VE MADE ME’, due to be unleashed upon the unsuspecting masses on September the 19th is a dynamic, seven track collection of smoldering songcraft and scorching instrumentation.

Opening track ‘Condemned’ barrels out of the gates with a gut wrenching display of devastating Metalcore replete with frenzied vocals and ferocious riffing.

Track two ‘Tetracycline Injection’ is a turbo-charged slice of bone shattering shrapnel that consists of vitriolic verses and a melodic, clean vocal driven chorus.

‘Cyanide Milkshake’ is constructed from shotgun riffing, double kick battery and convulsing rhythms which are interspersed with vocals that alternate between animalistic roars and melodious crooning. The breakdown within this work of sonic wildfire is truly plate shifting.

‘All The Same’ begins with a melancholic swath of guitars and sorrowful vocals which segue into a bone crunching beatdown. This track, with its superb guitar interplay, impassioned vocals and superb songcraft goes from ballad like bluster to blistering Metalcore with seamless ease and cohesion.

‘The Bottom’ is a punishing piece of Melodic Metalcore where heart wrenching melodies and rhythmic warfare mingle with adept vigor.

With its staccato riffing, double kick devastation and scathing vocals, ‘Death Of A Sun’ is primed to ignite moshpits live as its clean vocal driven chorus is primed to make audiences sway with sentiment with its introspective lyricism.

Track seven ‘How It Should’ve Been’ concludes ‘I’D RATHER DIE THAN BECOME WHAT YOU’VE MADE ME’ on a somber note with its scintillating tapestry of heartfelt Melodic Metalcore.

If you harbor a penchant for bands like Atreyu, Bullet For My Valentine, Eighteen Visions, Vision Of Disorder and August Burns Red, the immaculately composed, incandescent and incinerating tapestry of Melodic Metalcore that Walk These Skies invoke with such efficiency and vigor will be your next favorite band.

Prepare yourself to be mercilessly pummeled and spirited away by all things emotionally sentimental for on September the 19th ‘I’D RATHER DIE THAN BECOME WHAT YOU’VE MADE ME’ will be available to envelop you in its searing embrace.

-INTERNATIONAL REVIEW-
BAND: Tallah
SINGLE: DEPLETED
LABEL: Earache Records

Since their inception Tallah have been making waves across the globe with their wild fusion of Nu-Metal, Metalcore and Post-Hardcore.

Akin to contemporaries such as Code Orange, Vein FM and Tetrarch, Tallah draw upon a fiery confluence of crushing Metalcore and Nu-Metal that is as melodious as it malevolent and provocative.

Their latest single from their highly lauded third album, a single titled ‘Depleted’ is a Funk Metal infused piece of pummeling propulsive sonic art that begins with the crooning vocals of Justin Bonitz buttressed against a slithering canvas of corrosive, funky Metal where the popping bass licks of Max Portnoy, the shuffling drumming of Joel McDonald, the guitar dynamism of Alex Snowden and Derrick Schneider and the glitch oriented layering of DJ Navi mingle in a effervescent fashion.

As ‘Depleted’ progresses we are treated to an anthemic chorus, guttural vocals and instrumentation that runs the gamut from being fusion influenced theatrics to bone crunching heft and swagger.‘Depleted’ concludes its runtime in a sedate fashion where strumming guitars and melodious vocals take precedence over the proceedings.

The music video itself depicts the band performing in a somewhat rural, pastoral setting which somehow compliments the music quite well.

‘Depleted’ is yet another single from Tallah, a taster, that promises that their third album ‘Primeval: Obsession//Detachment’ will be an intriguing and stimulating experience.
