Critical Madness : NECRO-E "Assemblage of Emanated Embryo" Demo / Tape

It's quite interesting when Takashi Tanaka introduced the band directly to me back then, and I can't believed what the band was done almost 26 years ago totally never been banished in the rotting memory lane from some of us. Firstly, let's give a big rotting credit's to John from Von Frost Records to make this dream comes to dread. It's definitely a special exclusive re-issue that I think a 'must have' records for the old fans of this Japanese obscure and primitive Death/Doom and to all analog-demo-gravedigger! Thanks Takashi for hitting me up again with this tape.

"Assemblage of Emanated Embryo" demo was the band's second demo after the gore-birth of "Beginning of the Death" Demo in 1991, also the years when "Devoured Periphery" Demo was unleash too. It's not a quite mysterious and interesting when a band that already put 3 demo's in one year and after that recalled for the official split up? Only Minoru Kameizawa and Yoshio Hasegawa know the truth and I found some live footage of 'Oozing Child' on the Youtube, and it's totally a killer show and performances by the band and the crowds to be remember and just looking this old video I'm pretty sure it's was taken almost a decades ago. (Correct me if I'm wrong)

"Assemblage of Emanated Embryo" demo contains 12 songs definitely to be played in mostly low tunes of Death/Doom ways. From mid-tempo Death Metal to slower death/doom just give me a times to relax and embede(a)d my walk across the rotting carcass body. Also, there will be a huge putrid-stench of grind vibe was festered on this demo will puts you off constantly if you're not a fans for this style of rotting lo-fi productions. Some song just been slicing in very short of time, it's like you've just been left in gloomy graveyards, rotting decompose alone and eaten alive by the worms and you can spot that from the tracks 'Untamed Anathema', 'Unmerciful Mist', 'Shock on Intensities' and 'Mass Murder'. It's totally short and delivered a numerous obscure atmosphere or feels from the songs. I'm actually gotten some shock when listening to 'Unmerciful Mist', the Punk flavor and drum beat in the early of the song totally caught my ears. At the moment, I just recognised NEKRO-E actually put a very creative idea on each of the song and try approach the flavor with their own putrid style. Try listen to 'Assemblage of Emanated Embryo' tracks, the speaking style despite of growls beyond the chorus of the song probably the main highlight for me. Ha! Loved that tracks! Also the gloomy-filth melody on 'Beyond the Gates' and the outro-'Decaying the rain' just build up and reconjured the demo atmosphere.

From the mostly slow rotting low tune-paced on 'Under Destruction' tracks and to heavy-grinding death riff's from the 'Boiling Gore', NEKRO-E just put a really fvcking awesome demo back then and Von Frost Records probably put this ugly and disgusting demo in very special reissue-editions of pro-tape. The one in my hand are the brand new arts and layout was done by Mark Riddick. It's a yellow 'mustard' shell tape / cases and out in very limited 69 copies. There also have a 2nd version for this demo with the original art work and come out with high quality J-cards and it's only been press with black shell w/white cases and out in very limited to 31 copies only.

It's a good and killer reissue release both come from the label and the band. And looking how the label handling this reissue of NEKRO-E demo totally make me satisfied and fvcking happy forever!

Total classick!

Critical Madness : Wormridden "Festering Glorification" demo tape

A years goes by, some people changes and some people keep it's (rotting) down into their stinky funeral graveyards. Decomposing, rotting and eaten by the worms!

+ + 

Takashi have sent me a couple of copies of Wormridden "Festering Glorification" demo tape, it's the second "smell of the rotting carcass" releases from Wormridden after the gore-birth of "Infesting The Grave" demo back in 2012. The downtuned sickos based in Tokyo/Kill-town land of rotting dead. So, it's already almost 2 years when "Festering Glorification" came out stink from the coffin-tomb, what beyonds the relief?

Better late than never!!

Two tracks in most raw and heavy downtuned and Death Metal without hyper blast-beat, it's Death Metal also, no need to spread fast your hands on your snare drum like your holding you machine guns and try to shot the slyness cannibal birds :) 

"Festering Glorification" totally in most stink of pure raw morbid production directly from stinky basement you ever smell, the doomy-gloomy parts, the faster heaviness riff's guitar, guttural growl, Slowly and carnalvous of D-beat mangle are the flavors to feed the ghoul of forgotten tombs. Sometimes, some 'catchy' riff's from "Reduced To Slime" tracks make me smile how that's riff's guitars will gonna changes the world of Death Metal undergrounds in terms more disgusting and festering the old worms? It's will be classick masterpiece in the futures!

In the middle of gruesome of cover layout, Takashi and D.Tortudod know how to handle their 'gory' parts in most dirty ways, sometimes my tape records capture a sound of bullzzing from thousand of worms in deadly coffin, it's also same how the carvenous slime of song aparts join together to complete this two tracks demo. It's such a pretty disgusted Death Metal I've listen. Simple and heavy!

I must admit, the gory side of Wormridden will continues to slashing your tongues and keep your ears bleeding and keep believed the distances between Takashi and D.Tortudod are not the main problem for them to make another twisted downtuned death metal stuff in coming years. Death Metal in pure sickness will arise in anywhere on this earth, 

Total Death!
