WHEN WE SPEAK OF PLAGUES
WE NAME INSECTS AND DISEASE
CURSING GOD AN NATURE
SPITTING BILE TOWARD THE SKY
BUT HUMAN MINDS INVENTED HELL
BROUGHT IT INTO LIFE
A SCOURGE OF ENDLESS PAIN & DEATH
A TWISTED FUCKING SACRIFICE
TRNOPLJE
OMARSKA
KERATERM
JUST MORE NAMES DRENCHED IN DEATH
IN A SEA OF FUCKING THOUSANDS
TONGUELESS CORPSES WRAPPED IN WIRE
YOUNG AND OLD CONSUMED BY FIRE
HUMAN MINDS INVENTED HELL
GAVE IT LIFE & STOKED THE FLAMES
OUR WORLD BECOMES A MORTUARY
AGAIN & AGAIN & AGAIN..
“Before us, men, some of them skeletal, lined up behind a barbed wire fence, with lantern jaws and xylophone ribcages visible beneath their putrefied skin. They in turn saw a camera crew and a clutch of reporters advancing across the withered summer grass. This was Logor Trnopolje, a teeming mass of wretched humanity.”
-Ed Vulliamy, on the concentration camps of the Bosnian War.

PSA: if there was an album you heard a couple years ago and thought it was ok, listen to it again and you might love it.
That's what happened to me with this album. I cannot fathom why it didn't stick with me back then. Same thing happened with Decoherence's Unitarity for that matter. Matten
Pretty much the best Black/Speed Metal I've listened to since I learned about Evil Invaders and Vulture. Everything you'd love to be reminded of about this musical era is there. The influences are what you'd expect too: Motörhead, Venom, Bathory, early Slayer, Celtic Frost; aggressive vocals, tortured guitar solos, pounding drums; everything is fast, clear and still a little grimy, but without reverb cranked up to the max. Amazing band, amazing album. Odiumediae
On their ferocious self-titled debut, the Australian punks pit d-beat percussion against gnarled, metallic melodies. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 3, 2024
Aussie trio Burger Chef dish out a hearty helping of noise rock with a side of d-beat: messy, raw, and oh-so satisfying. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 20, 2022
This Australian group wraps D-beat in layers of psychedelic fuzz & squall for a howl from the depths of modern dystopia. Bandcamp New & Notable Mar 28, 2018
