Grossty – Crocopter (Review)

Grossty are an Indian grindcore band and this is their debut album.

Oh yeah! It’s always fun to hear a band that take a standard style and mutate it with their own passionate interpretation, and Grossty do exactly that with the short-bouts-of-violence grindcore template.

Featuring 21 tracks in just under 21 minutes, this may be short but Continue reading “Grossty – Crocopter (Review)”

Unyielding Love – The Sweat of Augury (Review)

This is the debut EP from UK grindcore band Unyielding Love.

Unyielding Love play ultra-extreme dark, blackened grindcore, and they sound pissed. This is noisy and littered with feedback and chaotic delivery.

Mix Discordance Axis, Nails, Full of Hell, thekevorkiansolution and Labrat together and you’ll be in the right filthy area. Continue reading “Unyielding Love – The Sweat of Augury (Review)”

Interview with Stheno and Exclusive Stream of New Song

I like grindcore. Let’s face it, who doesn’t? There are, however, a lot of bands that just don’t stand out enough to be worthy of real attention. Greek grinders Stheno are very much not one of these. The first time I ever heard them on their split with Grassroll, I was hooked, and when I found out they had their first full album coming out, I couldn’t wait.

Well, let me tell you in no uncertain terms – Liberty Crawls in Waste absolutely rocks. Or grinds, I suppose. But still. Stheno’s debut album is unleashed fully on the world on September 20th via EveryDayHate, but you don’t have to wait that long to get a taste of the glorious blackened brutality that they have to offer…

Today Wonderbox Metal is proud to premiere the second track on their album – Hail Nothing. The song is a blinder, all slithering malevolence and grim hatred. But don’t take my word for it; turn up the volume and blast it out at full volume. Once you’ve scraped your brains off the floor, read the interview below. Finally, make sure you order the album, because it’s a real killer. Continue reading “Interview with Stheno and Exclusive Stream of New Song”

Six-Score – Lebensräume (Review)

Six-Score are an Austrian Grindcore band, and this is their second album.

This is modern-edged grind with plenty of aggression and attitude.

Hardcore and punk influences can be heard alongside quite a few d-beat and crust ones, all mixed in with some metal and grinding ferocity. The parts that are injected with more d-beat and punk stylings are quite energetic, Continue reading “Six-Score – Lebensräume (Review)”

Existench/Deboned – Split (Review)

This is a split between two Canadian grindcore bands – Existench and Deboned.

First up we have Existench, with just under 7 minutes of intensity.

This is old-school grind that takes no prisoners and just wants to rampage. With punk intent and hardcore ferocity, Existench rage through these short songs with the assured confidence of a predator that knows its kill is near. Continue reading “Existench/Deboned – Split (Review)”

Unborn Suffer – Nihilist (Review)

Unborn Suffer are a deathgrind band from Poland, this is their fifth album.

Nihilist is 28 minutes of brutal death metal and grindcore, both mixed together and boiled alive to create a particularly dirty strain of deathgrind. It’s also quite a non-standard release – not because the band do anything wildly original, but because they’ve firmly stamped their music with their own mark.

To expand on this; the band have a rather unusual Continue reading “Unborn Suffer – Nihilist (Review)”

Urobilinemia – Wriggling Chrysalis of Metaphysical Grudge (Review)

Urobilinemia are a Japanese brutal death metal/deathgrind band. This is combination of their split with 妖神楽 (Ayakasi Kagura) and their debut EP.

Featuring a hard-to-decipher band logo and some quite striking cover artwork, the band make a good impression before you even listen to them. And once you do, all Hell breaks loose.

The songs on this release are short, brutal and technical, just what the evil doctor Continue reading “Urobilinemia – Wriggling Chrysalis of Metaphysical Grudge (Review)”

Junk Fuck Militia – Greatest Hits (Review)

Junk Fuck Militia are a Polish grindcore band. This is their latest album.

Junk Fuck Militia play grindcore with lashings of hardcore, powerviolence and sludge. This means that the songs play with different speeds, moods and textures according to the desires of the band.

Even though the average song length is about a minute or so, due to the aforementioned stylistic influences you never quite know Continue reading “Junk Fuck Militia – Greatest Hits (Review)”

Interview with The Sound That Ends Creation

The debut album from The Sound That Ends Creation is named We Are the Burden, but what a glorious burden it is. The bastard offspring of grindcore, hardcore, sludge, mathcore, death metal and black metal, it’s the kind of release that’s just plain nasty and savage, rending the listener limb from limb with its extremity. I caught up with the brains behind the outfit to find out a bit more…

Tell us a bit about the background of The Sound That Ends Creation

There’s not much to say, I started working on the songs at the beginning of the year and I wrote enough for an album.

How did the name originate?
