Advent of Bedlam – Behold the Chaos

Advent of Bedlam - Behold the Chaos

Genre: Blackened Death Metal
Label: Independent

I was supposed to do this review forever ago. I thought I had. But no, obviously I had not.
Either way, Advent of Bedlam provide a wonderful listen of blackened death, a take-no-prisoners approach to slaughtering the listener’s ideas of the genre. Blast beats and gorgeous solos abound, with a voice that carries power and demands your attention.
It’s a short review here, because it’s straight forward: Behold the Chaos kicks major ass. Order a copy.
8.5 out of 10.

Balpehor/Mortiferous – Cadent in Obscurum

Balpehor/Mortiferous - Cadent in Obscurum

Genre: Dark Ambient
Label: Serpent God Records

Cadant in Obscurum is a tape of eight dark ambient songs, four from each artist. Both sides have different takes on the genre, Balpehor’s side having a slightly more industrial feel to the music, especially in the song “Forever and Abuse (Goat Remix)” which is very much club worthy. Not to mention great.
Considering the fact that this is dark ambient, parallels can be found in obvious references like Burzum’s latter work, but also Steve Roach and some Black Tape for a Blue Girl at times. As such, I recommend this great tape for fans of those bands, but also to fans of doom and goth music. Favorite tracks for me are the aforementioned “Forever and Abuse” mix, “Animas Defunctorum”, and “Old and Alone”.
I give Cadant in Obscurum a 7 out of 10.
