Dead Goats Revel
And here I
have another 7’ split in my collection with a by default affixed signature one hero only. Released by Selfmadegod
Records and limited to 500 pieces was bought by me because of The Dead Goat.
The split brother, German Revel in Flesh, wanted to conquer my soul with a song
“Phlebotomy”, but they… failed. The first date with this Baden-Württemberg based
combo showed the track to be mediocre and boring, the leading guitar theme
didn’t convince me, possibly due to its banality. The whole seems to be straggled
too much, leaving an unfavourable impression and being not a good invitation to
the Revel in Flesh discography.
Fortunately
“From Hell He Comes” is a total reciprocal. Smartly divided into two slaughterous
parts, the Poles didn’t turn their Swedish old-school (left hand) path off. They
started to build a massive altar with dismemberish and entombedish bricks, and
this almost seven minute track isn’t an exception. For sure it is one of the
best children from the goat’s happy family: after short intro I immerse into
the abyss once called Indecent and
Obscene. Yes, the second Dismember album is a good determinant of all the
things are about. Fast, furious guitar layers supported by frenzied rhythm
section wreak havoc, in turn the second part is some kind of tribute to the
opening whiles of mighty “Dreaming in Red”. It’s bloody delicious! Good that
the production doesn’t vary as compared with the fungus children. So… forget
about the Germans and don’t change the wax: The Dead Goats fuckin’ rules.
