A Lesson in (Psychic) Violence


And the hits keep coming. The mysterious entity that is CEREBRATE announce themselves this morning via a sample from an upcoming demo to be distributed via the Psychic Violence label (run by Kyle from Ash Borer) in the not too distant future. Can I rave about them being the saviours of US death metal?Well, no I can't, because I've only heard as much as you have, but it's a solid enough start that makes me intrigued to hear the whole thing. There's a hint of Sweden circa 1990 in there, but it comes through a Rottrevore filter to these ears - there's a swampy edge to the guitars but it's still precise and coherent.

Speaking of Psychic Violence, at some point during 2012 I believe there's a RUIN LUST 7" scheduled to come out via the label later in the year. I'm in the prcoess of interviewing Michael from RL for CvltNation at the moment which will be up shortly and sheds a bit more light and that and the band in general, but if you missed out on that band's utterly bestial demo that surfaced in the latter half of last year, you missed out on a gem and should be keeping your eyes and ears peeled for their future releases. The aural equivalent of a typhoon in a graveyard, it tapped into a level of instinctive violence that several of the war metal cvlt elite could learn from - no studs or spikes, just sheer animal force.
