"The Demo-Compilation" Includes N.D.-Demo + A.M.S.G.-Demo released 2009

For the past several weeks I had been hearing about this band that we were promoting called "Nazarene Decomposing." Well I finally got a chance to check out some of their material online a few days ago and was nothing short of amazed. The vocalist, Judas, sounds a lot like Pest from Gorgoroth on the Pentagram album. A few days later the USBMS International coordinator handed me a copy of their demo...at this point I was BEYOND amazed...EVERY track on this demo is killer in every way. It sounds very much like a lot of the bands I enjoy listening to...Craft, Urgehal, Beastcraft, Gorgoroth etc. but it comes together and has its own distinct sound so it dosen't sound like a rip-off of any of those bands. There's parts that are just raw underground black metal and others
that sound a lot like Black N' Roll. All-in-All probably one of the best demos I've recieved in awhile.

Intro/Nazarene Decomposing

Ok so this one as the title suggest starts with an intro and the other half is the song "Nazarene Decomposing" the intro is very grim sounding
with a lot of synth in it giving it an orchestral feel. Right when the intro ends the song opens up with some drums followed by a violent shriek
courtesy of Judas and continues to crush everything about you for the next 2 minutes.


It's A Demonic Night

This one is great as well, it begins with a sort of gorgoroth style instrumental before once again, the violent vocals of Judas cut in. Another crushing song, although this one seemed to have more guitar shifts in it and a little bit more drums as well.


Fuck Christianity

First of all I'll admit this was the first track I listened to when I was handed this demo due to the name. Judas shrieks and howls, the guitars thrash about, the drums sound like shotgun blasts and at this point the album is reaching it's peak and is getting more and more violent with each track.


Honourfull Times

BRILLIANT, I love this track easily the best one on the demo. It wastes no time getting into the song once you play it and dosen't let up. Towards the
middle of the song it goes off into a sort of Urgehal/Craft sounding guitar riff that never seems to get old. This is a much more violent and brutal sounding track, maybe even more so than "Fuck Christianity."


Forbidden Wisdom

More Christ Crushing, Church bashing Black Metal...this album isn't done yet! Forbidden wisdom begins with some violent drums that are seemingly more audible here than throughought the rest of the album. About 1:10 seconds in it goes into another Black N' Roll guitar riff accompanied by more of the same GREAT
vocals.
