Mesmeric Revelation – Demo 2020
India
Black Cum Productions
You
know you're in for a treat when a band's music gets dubbed as
"Kolkata Gutter Grind" by their label. The story began when
I logged into facebook one day and saw that all my friends had posted
this. So after listening to it I immediately purchased the cassette
and had no regrets. The music can be described as blackened
noise-grind in the same vein as their label peers Methgoat. The
guitars on this EP are tremelo picked, backed by a massively thick,
raw production filthy enough to stain the horizon. Strangely enough,
for this style the lead guitars will pop up throughout the mix
several times, mostly strummed high notes, brief and fitting for what
you're being subjected to. The drums will stay on constant
alternating blasts with the tempo not changing much except for a few
short, slower parts here and there. Lastly, the vocals are drowned in
reverb and echo, which gives the music an immensely evil effect,
making the vocalist sound like a descendant of Kali herself. This has
been on my playlist regularly since it was released. If you're a fan
of Nyogthaeblisz, Chaos Cascade, or Methgoat, this will be right up
your alley. Special thanks to Kolkata Inner Order Propaganda and War
Vellum for all the sick music lately. (LR)
