Decrepitaph/Humiliation/The Carnal Slumber/Enemy's Perimeter/EldritchLunar Miasma/Dybukk/2013 Split 7 InCh Review


  This  is  a  review  of  a  7  inch  between  California's  Decrepitaph  and  Malaysia's  Humiliation  which  was  released  as  a  joint  effort  Eldritch  Lunar  Miasma  and  Dybukk  and  we  will  start  off  the  review with  Decrepitaph  a  band  that  has  been  featured  before  in  this  zine  with  a  musical  style  I  would  describe  as  being  ancient  doom/death  metal.

  Drums  range  from  slow,  mid  paced  to  fast  drumming  with  not  much  in  the  way  of  blast  beats,  while  the  bass  playing  has  a  very  dark  tone  with  riffs  that  follow  the  riffing  that  are  coming  out  of the  guitars.

  Rhythm  guitars  range  from  slow,  mid  paced  to  fast  riffs  that  combine  old  school death  metal  with  doom  along  with  some  dark  sounding  melodies  being  thrown  into  the  riffing  and  there  are  no  guitar  solos  or  leads  present  on  this  recording.

  Vocals  are  all  deep  death  metal  growls,  while  the  lyrics  cover  darkness  and  horror  themes,  as  for  the  production  it  has  a  very  strong,  powerful,  heavy,  dark  and  old  school  sound  to  it  that  goes  back  to  the  early  90's.

  In  my  opinion  this  is  another  great  song  from  Decrepitaph  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of  this  band,  you should  check  out  their  side  of  the  recording.  RECOMMENDED.

  Next  up  is  Humiliation  a  band  that  plays  a  very  old  school  form  of  death  metal.

  Drums  range  from  slow,  mid  paced  to  fast  drumming  with  some  blast  beats  being  utilized  at  times,  while  the  bass  playing  has  a  very  dark  tone  with  riffs  that  follow  the  riffing  that  are  coming  out  of  the  guitars.

  Rhythm  guitars  range  from  slow,  mid  paced  to  fast  death  metal  riffs  that  are  very  heavy  and  old  school  sounding  in  the  early  90's  tradition  and  there  are  no  guitar  solos  or  leads  present  on  their  side  of  the  recording.

  Vocals  are  all  deep  death  metal  growls,  while  the  lyrics  cover  violent  themes,  as  for  the  production  it  has  a  very  strong,  powerful, heavy  and  dark  sound  in  the  old  school  death  metal  tradition.

  In  my  opinion  Humiliation  are  a  very  great  sounding  old  school  death  metal  band  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of  this  musical  genre,  you  should  check  out  their  music.  RECOMMENDED.

  In  conclusion  I  feel  this  is  a  very  great  sounding  split  and  I  would  recommend  it  to  all  fans  of  doom/death  and  old  school  death  metal.  RECOMMENDED  BUY.
