Chapel Defilement

Catchy name and artwork. This is kind of a black/death/grind hybrid that's raw, primal and savage, just plowing ahead and destroying everything in its path. There's more of a first-wave black metal vibe here than I expected, with a noticeable thrashy edge and that kind of '80s DIY lo-fi style that I always find endearing (pretty sure the band wasn't going for "endearing," but I do mean that in an evil way... ;)) Overall this is minimalistic, with lots of speed and repetition and a muddy, sometimes cavernous sound that will keep fans of polished metal away, no doubt about it. For those times when you feel like listening to an out-of-control speeding freight train loaded to the max.
