Country: Greece
Genre: Grindcore
Format: Digital, vinyl
Label: EveryDayHealth, Gore Kitty Records, Helldog Records, Nihilocus Records, Nothing to Harvest, Nostril Bush, Throne of Lies Records (vinyl)
Release date: September 13, 2024
With a rich ensemble of old school grind along with death metal madness this band here really knows how to resonant what it is to kill under two minutes on each and every one of its tracks. The void is filling and it is filled with Vile Species latest Disqualified as a Human. Athens Greece never fails to amaze me with what they put out these days. It reminds me of old Absu from 97 with a mix of Necrophobic and constantly pushes the envelope for more teeth shattering good times. Powerviolent in nature and grind / death metal to the core.
Their vocalist sounds like he is exorcising some demons here. The drums are really well placed as are the guitars during this session of bloodshed. The grinding of old OSDM carries on with some elements of Napalm Death added to it. With a fierce ferocity of Dying Fetus and a sick hatred like Blood Duster they certainly get the job well done here.
Swinging the axe with a powerviolent like feel they touch on many different layers of sub genre in the scheme of things. Leaving you to blast the volume and scream along with the band as they take their time in dissecting everything from any standpoint they can musically in such a short amount of time.
These guys get a cool party going and are fierce enough to even headline their own hometown areas till they can jump over to the states to handle some serious business. My favorite track I have to say is Plebs In Despair…. funny yet heavily brutal all at the same time. They have vinyl and cd & tape TBA so check these guys out! –Daniel Ryan
