Damn cool! I wasn't even thinkng about these guys and then their new album drops today, a very nice surprise. I really enjoyed Wrecking Command back in 2018 and it's damn difficult to believe that 7 years have gone by but it has and these guys are still cranking out some killer thrash \m/\m/

Vengeance Evangel is the new album from Chaos Inception. After 13 long years, they are finally back with new material, and at first I wasn't sure because I didn't feel that they got the production sound that they could have but after a few listens now I realize that the quality of the songs was worth the wait.

I kind of slept on this album when it came out last July and that was a mistake because this is fairly entertaining death metal from this Pennsylvania trio. It's probably nothing you haven't heard before but definitely a good effort and a fun listen.

These guys have been true to form for more than a decade now, not deviating much from their style of old-school Swedish death metal. I guess they follow the old adage that if it ain't broke then don't fix it.

It seems that this band has been around since 1993, but they only have a couple of demos, 2 singles, and this full-length album in their catalog. Interestingly, they still have 3 original members from their inception in the line-up.

Witness: -[*]-
Sarcator is back with a new offering of their Swedish-styled blackened thrash metal, which is very much in the vein of another band featured here in The Chamber this weekend, The Crown. There is a good reason for that since one of the guitarists and founding members of this band is the son of one of the guitarists from the other. I was very much down with these young guys back in 2020 and then lost track of them with their last album but I am liking this new release.

Here is an album that I missed out on a decade ago when it was released and this band from KC, Missouri, would split up almost as soon as this disc was released, which is a shame because this is pretty good and certainly showed potential.

Whisper is a new Helsinki band tagged as death metal but seems to have a progressive slant on this EP. I wouldn't expect this to be to everyone's liking but I dig it.

Witness: -[*]-
When they were still known as Crown Of Thorns, these guys were one of my early favorites in the Swedish death thrash category and they held that spot well into the new millennium. I feel fortunate that I got to see them live on their Crowned in Terror tour back in 2002. I have kind of lost them a bit in recent years but I do like this album and wanted to promote them again.

I don't claim to be any kind of expert on black metal because I don't listen to most of it, but I know that I like this album. These Greeks are melodic, epic, technical, and at times vicious. This is entertaining to me.

This is another late release album from 2024 that is appealing to me. There is definitely a strong "core influence"  on display here but it really just sounds like modern death metal to me.

The first thing that caught my attention about this album was the Dan Seagrave cover art, and then the quality of the death metal solidified it. These guys are based out of Springfield, Missouri and feature the skills of Chason Westmoreland on drums. This is good stuff.
