Now, this is what I call a Goddamned crying shame: The favourite of the four releases that were sent to me by EBM Records turns out to be the band's debut "Yes, bleedin' brilliant, so that means they can only improve over the years. That means they will become huge since this debut just blows me away" And what do I read in the accompanying biography? The band's debut and FINAL full length. No, no, please tell me that isn't true, the my eyes are deceiving me and that I need new glasses. But a little background check proved that, unfortunately, my eyes weren't playing any tricks on me. Boohoo, sniff, blubber. Why oh why, you cruel world? The horror of it all.
Yes, another crustcore band but with a slight twist. Some slight metal influences are discernible making it just the way I like it for this sort of music. I think that never in my life have I read a biography which just nails the sound for one hundred per cent. Well, there has to be a first time for everything. And here we get that. Just sit back and listen "Nosferatus Subworld delivers 9 tracks of dark and apocalyptic crustcore that will bring to your mind obscure and twisted visions of a dying world. Crude/raw sound and desperate vocals complete this nightmarish entity making this release a true landscape of despair and agony." Spot on that is.
All in all nine tracks with a heavy yet somewhat clear sound which is also crude and raw. The twin guitars adding that much needed punch and dark apocalyptic touch. And the vocals are so desperate that I can envision the split flying around at concerts.
The two main jewels among the nine apocalyptic subterranean visions of hell are Time Of The Rising Sun and Tons Of Garbage.
This album is proof that God doesn't exist, and isn't merciful at all, unlike what some people want us to believe, or else he wouldn't have allowed this to be Nosferatus Subworld's final full length. So, what's left for me? Just spin it round and round until the cd wears down, I guess.
Damn, so all in all another good release by EBM Records in the traditions of old school core. First Generhate, Comando Caveira, Human Error, and now the best till last: Nosferatus Subworld. EBM Records surely is a stand-out Latin American hardcore label. Open-minded metalheads should really check out the releases by this label.
