This Toilet Tuesday (5/16/17)
Welcome once more to This Toilet Tuesday! We are once more presented with a plethora of new releases this week, and it’s a particularly good one for power and black metal fans. BertBanana and DumpsterLung have picked out a couple solid releases for you to feast your ears on; check those out, then hit that list for much, much more.
Coprobaptized Cunthunter – Perseveration of Delirious Comprehensiveness (Reality Fade Records) [Brutal Death Metal]
Stream
Are you someone like me, who wakes up in the morning and craves ridiculous sounding shit that the average normie would look at you like you have 2 heads? Do songs that don’t even come close to clearing the 2 minute mark and have vocals that sound like your belly after going a whole day without eating, appeal to you? If you answered “yes” to those last couple questions, then you’re in luck. The latest offering from Coprobaptized Cunthunter is right up your alley. After 6 long (or maybe short) years…they finally have some new material. This 8 track, 11 minute EP is loaded with slam riffs, disgusting gutturals and a finite amount of blast pings. At first, the drums threw me off, but then I grabbed an empty tin sitting on my desk that was once filled with Stroopenwafles, and started hitting it with my index and middle finger. Totally nailed that sound and it totes made the 11 minutes much more enjoyable. Sure, $8 might be a little steep for an 8 track EP that you can only get digitally; however, the amount of pleasure you will get from cranking this in a carpool with normies who will question your taste in music and possibly your sanity is endless. 5/15/17 (BertBanana)
Nephilim’s Howl – Through the Marrow of Human Suffering (I, Voidhanger) [Black/Doom]
Stream
Just when I thought nothing new was really going to grab me this week, I checked out Nephilim’s Howl and was pleasantly surprised. You’d probably call them a combination of black and doom metal, but rather than the “funeral doom with shrieked black metal vocals” sound I was expecting to hear, these Finns take a more epic approach, with gloomy, mid-paced riffs and a mix of lower-register vocals that range from clean to harsh, often residing somewhere in the middle of that spectrum. There are some brief bits of blasting in a couple spots on the album, but it often reminded me of a more somber and brooding latter-era Bathory overall. I want to go on for longer about the weary, downtrodden atmosphere, the riffs, solos, and vocals, but honestly, the more I’m listening to this, the more I want to just stop writing and pay more attention to the album, so I’ll end on that note! 5/19/17 (DumpsterLung)
