ZONDA comes from Israel, and on the front of band stands the woman – Yafit Reuveny – guitarist and vocalist together the men – Shai Kalderon – guitarist, Yaniv Kalderon – guitarist, Tomer Salman – bass player and Shealtiel David – drummer. On the disc are the 12 tunes (over 75 minutes of music), and the last of four songs come from a concert.
PSYCHOTOBLACK „Psychotoblack – Demo#1”
The majority of Japanese hordes (which I know) play the power/heavy metal. However PSYCHOTOBLACK plays the little popular sort of metal, which define the sludge/doom metal.
PSYCHOTOBLACK „Demo#2”
This is the second material of Japanese doom-metal-maniacs. To reminder I will mark that the men their music name sludge/doom metal and this ideally fits to their music.
ORNA ANNON „Demo 2005”
What an epic and expressive name: ORNA ANNON. This band from Northern Virginia/USA formed up through a symbiosis of the single bandmembers, after the persons played in a bunch of several other bands.
DAMAGE DONE „Stories never told…”
The hypnotic, dark voice of singer Nick Kappas immediately can be mentioned together with the name Jyrki in The 69 Eyes. But the impression does not trick: Nick can do a lot more than just singing dark vocals.
FORCES@WORK „Coldheart Canyon”
Long lasted before I resolved to do on campaign with Germany. Sometimes I drank, and sometimes I arranged solitaires…
GODMACHINE „Demo”
Godmachine is an underground metal band from Greece and this is their second demo release after Promo 2003. The progress the band has been making is more than obvious as everything now is of a more professional standard.
9th PLAGUE „Spreading the Satanic gospel – Demo”
So far, this is the only promo material of this Swedish five-piece Death Metal squad, strongly devoted to an occult and Satanic ideology which reflect in their music and in their lyrics. This release has certain Floridian influences, which is clearly showed in their production ,vocals, arangments etc.
IMPERIAL CRYSTALLINE ENTOMBMENT (I.C.E.) „Imperial Crystalline Entombment”
This guys at first impression sound like a new common band of black metal, but after a few listenings of their 3 songs demo (and with help of a very good production) this band seem to have potential.
.
WATERSHED „The Unreflective Interest In Action – Demo”
This band took me back a little to a sound I have heard before. This is a four track demo produced by Watershed and Jon Bergqvist.
WILDTIMES „Promo”
This promo contains 3 tracks. Insane Nowhere in your mind Don't mean shit My first thoughts was,this band reminds about the 70's.
WITHOUT END „Promo”
Is this a Slayer rip off or what? I recognize this pre-death metal kind of thrashing groove. In the last song they even include a Slayer trademark solo with a little Metallica touch to it.
UNSCARED „Hell is Now”
Unscared present a 22 minute and 10 second demo-recording of typical underground death/thrash metal. Basically, a simplistic mastering process hampers their music.
SHOCK OF THE SYSTEM „Taste the Fist, Smell the Fear – Demo”
It's all an melodic old-school thrash inferno and every now and then more modern influences such as Machine Head shine through. The vocals are a lot like early Metallica, but a little sleazier.
SKON „Nic Realnego – Demo”
I don't know if I spelled those correctly or not because I only speak English. but I do know one thing: This CD Rocks!!! I'm tiring to start a band of my own and this is the sound we were trying for.
SPLITDAWN „Promo”
Splitdawn is another bad from Greece that plays thrash metal with Metallica influences. They do not strictly belong to thrash metal because they do have some heavy parts but in general they are a thrash band.
