Diabolical – Hooligans Regiment Of Terror - Full Length (2018)
Indonesia
Total Death Records / Deadly Throat Productions
Founded in
East Java, Indonesia, Diabolical has been making noise in the
underground ever since their inception in 2005. The band has already
churned out a string of releases, although “Hooligans Regiment of
Terror” is their first proper full length. The material is utterly
crude, with a sound and style that is idiomatic to the Southeast
Asian scene, and brings to mind bands like Impiety, Zygoatsis,
Deiphago, etc. The band fuses hardcore punk styled yelling with
black/death extremity, which I find to be quite an auspicious
formula, resulting in a very chaotic sound. The production is totally
raw, yet perfectly suites the music. The vocals are absolutely
maniacal and oozes pure, unyielding rage. The music is predominantly
fast, and constantly bombards the listener with a wall of excessive
audio violence that is bound to make poofters duck for cover. Some of
my favourite songs include “Muslimassacre” and “Hail Belial.”
The excellent cover art by Jenglot Hitam does a good job at representing
the music, and depicts an incursion of demonic forces attacking
various religious figures. “Hooligans
Regiment Of Terror” is a call to arms against posers and religious
pigs everywhere, featuring 11 tracks of malicious war metal that is
sure to please all maniacs into this style. (HT)
