The Chasm - Procreation of the Inner Temple

1994, Belphegot Records

7.	The Cosmos Within *	05:21
8.	Stair to Aspirations *	05:40

The Chasm bring new meaning to the term "epic" with their unique brand of majestic death metal. Their debut shows much more of a doom influence than their later material would, and proves to be a desolate, eerie, and powerful album. The production is raw, but gives it some character, making it a bit more obvious that this is earlier in their career. They have always been noted for their involved songwriting and even here the songs have quite a lot going on in them. Give this well crafted album a listen.

12.	The Comfort of Cowards	05:52

Immolation have been going hard with their unique brand of death metal since the mid 80's. Their latest offering proves to be one of their best records in years. Where many fans have critiqued "Harnessing Ruin" for it's simple song structures and "Shadows In The Light" for it's hollow/modern production, "Majesty and Decay" takes us back to the albums preceding those ones, both in the song writing department and production. Trademark Immolation riffs roll out with their unique sense of rhythm and bizarrely evil touch of melody.

13. God is Dead (4:14)

Jackboot Black Metal marching to war in a furious showdown. Brimming and violent haze of distorted warfare, oi-stylings and crack skull swamp beasts. Deranged and limited like the victories of old, a black metal siren of war.

Death is a sentient and responsive shadow. To stand in his presence one must be a willing empath for immersion in his essence. Those who seek shall find life and death merge in a continuity of purpose, like blue streaks in a black sky. Proceed: for beyond this converging twilight lies a profound remembrance of the things you have seen, the places you have been, the tears you have drowned in. It is easy to get caught up.

10. Wolf Feast (2:33)

California Love is a Fast and furious hardcore band in the vein of Heresy, Ripcord or Mind Eraser with members of Dead and Gone, Talk Is Poison and Look Back and Laugh.

An ugly, undulating wreck exploding from all sides, this is not music but an assault to annihilate everything in it's path. On their second effort, California Love plow through ten tracks like a Mack truck, switching tempos from a painful gut wrenching crawl to a blinding blast with a masterful precision to leave the listener completely bewildered and senseless. The cover art says it all.

Members can also be found wasting their time in ensembles such as Ampere and Wasteland.

These Western Mass outcasts with a predilection for Godzilla, Mr. T, and the Red Sox dwelt in a world where fame meant nothing and tangible politics had little to do anything found in a filthy squat. After releasing a promising split ep with Malay and playing at most two live shows, these guys disappeared back into their garage, tightened their sound, and wrote 50 songs. Represented here are the best 19 of that lot, a record so musically solid and consistent that it has claimed the throne for the loudest, most devastating LP in the galaxy. For those who may have lapsed on their note taking, THE CANCER KIDS is ex-members of the legendary cult BUCKET FULL OF TEETH, and was produced by genious Will Killingsworth of ORCHID/BUCKET FULL OF TEETH/AMPERE glory. A masterpiece years in the making.
