Comentario:
2º álbum de esta banda noruega donde milita el ex-baterÃa de BLOOD RED THRONE. Echas de menos los buenos viejos tiempos de... por ejemplo... el primer álbum de DEEDS OF FLESH?? Cuando el Brutal Death era puro y sin adulterar?? Si lo tuyo es eso y bandas como GORGASM, KATAPLEXIA, DISAVOWED, VILE... no dejes pasar este album!!
Previously, we apologize to loyal readers, that we missed this noteworthy release. Yes, ' Sickness Unfold ' from ' The Sickening ' released in July 2015 by ' Xtreem Music ', at the same time, the staffs at ' Metalbleedingcorp ' also faces an extraordinary flurry in outside of the music, which made us miss the noteworthy release from brutal death metal scene in this year. Supposedly, this writing published in July. However, we don't have the time to exist in Metalbleedingcorp at the time. Right in the third month after the release, finally able to hear their music in full.
Well, before hearing this album, it's better to omit something that related concerning modernization of the brutal death metal in the brain, due to ' Sickness Unfold' created not to present a trend or a collection of nonsense to create an interest at the moment. However, it created to express the honesty in interpreting of eternity from the purity of brutal death metal. Offering primitive composition of brutal death that blasphemous, barbarous and rapid in giving the effect of dissonance which sick in the ears done on each song - surprising and remembering.
Substantively, the cover art which created by ' Anders Rokkum' - everything is clear, that the nuances of the music that will be offered by 'The Sickening ' - a sick and excruciating the body. Just look, how he depicts a monster who torture own body with knives and chain its body to not to be able to move - in the sense, forced be quiet and feel the pain. ' Anders Rokkum ' also did not give paint it in red. However, gray or color of grim. For the art being displayed, we argue that the vision of the music which offered by 'The Sickening' such as this: ' Applying a painful torture side into the nuances of the music they create thoroughly - not slowly. However, spontaneity and rapid in felt the extraordinary agony by presenting the long-time grudges or the trauma of torture from the past.
Maximize volume, when hearing the songs - especially for the early tracks, such as ' Sickness Unfold ', ' fixed on Killing ' and ' Unnamed horror ' - so that can feel the depth of the pure brutal death metal composition that they offer - and these songs are strong to offer the scent of vicious from the purity of brutal death metal - and we have plenty of time to hear these songs repeatedly. When you already feel the nuance of the suffering of these songs, please don't stop until there, due to it's still a seed of the nuance of torture which offered on this album. The other songs titled ' Throat Hole Ejaculation ', ' Lord Of Decay ', ' A Mind Deranged ' and 'Powertool sodomy ', such as took us to the dissecting room, where therein several organs that still active and picked it up for collection.
No doubt heard the composition of pure brutal death which they offer, ranging from the intensity of hyper and blast beats, guitar riffs that are pungent, vicious and slashing, not to mention the raw growl vocal, which easy to be listened. All this makes us to imagine a combination between ' Gorgasm in the EP 'Stabwound Intercause (1998) ' with ' Deeds Of Flesh in the Ep 'Gradually Melted (1995)' - impressive. The songs entitled 'Suffer For My Pleasure' and ' Consumed By Hate ' true clarify it all.
Don't ever to reveal the expression 'Sick' for brutal death metal, which not adjust the purity of brutal death metal in composition. However, it will be memorable, if done intensively-and we obtain it from ' The Sickening ', a band that came from a country that did not previously suspected, that therein still exist that presenting the root of brutal death.
Usually, the "brutal Death Metal" tag waves me off completely, because I am pretty sure what to expect sound-wise. Sure I can name a few bands that I worship, such as SUFFOCATION, CRYPTOPSY, PYREXIA, DEEDS OF FLESH and SEPSISM. But those were Death Metal bands back in the day. Come the new millennium bringing along the "brutality". Anyway, after making clear that new bands in that sub-genre usually don't impress me, a few years ago and completely by accident, I heard "Death Devastation Decay", THE SICKENING's debut album from 2009. And hell was I impressed! These guys from Norway opted out from their country's Black Metal tradition and put out a fierce Death Metal album with a great production and attitude (and the "tin-can" snare drum sound that I dig in this style of music!). And finally 6 years later, here is "Sickness Unfold", their sophomore album. And let me tell you, the wait was worth every single minute. The album is a killer. The band keeps evolving and working on their identity. This time around they managed to include some slower passages that give the songs a much needed break. Too much blast beat and palm muted riffs can become tiring after some time. So they were clever enough to let album breath and set in, Ã la AUTOPSY, while keeping most of the other parts on their usual extreme settings. The sound on "Sickness Unfold" also reflects the actual state of the band. Although it is not as wild as on their debut album, the tightness and heaviness is more controlled and it helps define a lot of nuances that were unnoticed in their previous material. Beist keeps behind the drums, Neeraj on bass and now, guitarist Markspist is taking care of the vocals. These guys know their trade and execution wise, they are flawless with their instruments. There is a lot going on, but the catchy riffing and the ongoing groove (yes, even in this extreme setting) are the highlights of "Sickness Unfold". A perfect example of a power trio that came up with 40 minutes of brain bashing Death Metal! Did I mention that the album also includes a cover version of 'Abort (The Fetus)' by VILE (US)? Recommended!
Este disco de tintes malsanos fue grabado y producido por Strein Olav Havnen en su estudio FX Arena, con el apoyo de John-Ã…ge Olsen y la supervisión de la propia banda. En lo que concierne al acabado sónico, supone un avance frente a su material anterior. Con respecto al estilo, aunque las influencias de las bandas clásicas están ahÃ, se mantiene el ineludible sabor de los últimos años noventa y parte de los primeros del nuevo siglo. THE SICKENING evocan un aura agresiva y post SUFFOCATION, vÃa primeros DEEDS OF FLESH, DISAVOWED, SEVERED SAVIOR, GORGASM, SEVERE TORTURE, INSIDIOUS DECREPANCY… pero este disco podÃa haber sido editado hace quince años o más, tranquilamente, con todo el espÃritu que ello conlleva. Encontrar algo asà en los tiempos que corren supone un lujo de lo más embriagador, o al menos un soplo de “frescuraâ€.
“Throat Hole Ejaculation†retoma el asalto, dejando tÃmidos silencios en los que el bajo quiere asomar, solo para acabar siendo engullido rápidamente por la masa de pura metralla que mana de guitarras y parches, a placer. Hay muy buenos momentos en los que las cuerdas se doblan entre sÃ, creando una tensión perfecta y dando cancha a diferentes recursos. No menos lúcida y bestial se produce “Lord of Decayâ€, uno de los temas más densos del disco, implicando fraseos muy bestias y riffs con mordentes que suenan a puro fuego.
Todo cambia en “Suffer for My Pleasureâ€, mid-tempo muy machacón que implica cierta “melodÃa†entre riff y voz, de forma muy marcada y haciendo casi imposible que se olvide. Solo afecta medio tema, en el resto se echa la casa por la ventana, volando hacia la oscuridad a golpe de caja y atronadoras guitarras duplicadas que atruenan como metralletas.
“Consumed by Hate†dirige este tracklist hacia sus últimos coletazos, sonando completamente “Killer†y agotando cartuchos al viejo estilo. Con un riffeo grave y totalmente enfurecido, estamos ante una oda a la destrucción, una canción implacable que más que una declaración de principios se asemeja a una catástrofe de proporciones considerables. BuenÃsima la toma de bajo, con una adrenalina bestial y todas las imperfecciones del realismo desenfrenado. Si este fuese el último track del disco, me daba con un canto en toda la boca.
Pero aún queda un resquicio de malignidad. En su anterior trabajo nos servÃan un cover de CANNIBAL CORPSE, y hoy rinden honores a los americanos VILE: “Abort (the Fetus)â€, en el que se incluye una pequeña colaboración solista por parte del productor (bastante probable), citado como ‘Steini’ para la ocasión. Un corte potente y rápido que además cuadra perfecto en el tracklist, destacando una feroz recta final a golpes de cortante lentitud Old School que desemboca en fieras carreras por los bombos, la remontada ideal.
El disco invita a repetir, puro vicio musical del que es difÃcil despegarse, siempre que lo tuyo sea el Brutal Death desenfrenado y sin artificios, feroz guitarreo y picantes llamas que queman hasta muy adentro, dejándonos más secos que un cartón en medio del desierto. Brillante baza la de ofrecen THE SICKENING, banda que suena engrasada, atronadora y comprometida, por lo que bien vale haber esperado este pequeño lapsus para poder saborear su generoso aceite. La mejor droga es la Música, y “Sickness Unfold†se traduce en pleno enganche, una rareza del presente con todo el hedor de lo rancio y pegajoso, tan adictiva como letal.
