Welcome to the third chapter of MISOTHEIST:
Vessels by which The Devil is made Flesh
The band continues where For the Glory of your Redeemer left off, delving into a massive, profound album filled with unpredictable, intricate Black Metal as we come to expect from this band.
Its aggressive, yet beautiful, with gorgeous and sublime melodies covered in darkness and torment. Each listen reveals something new; a new detail, another riff, another twist you previously didn’t notice, making this an unbelievable album that grows and pulls you in further upon each listen. The incredible songwriting and musicianship is something this band has gotten a name for, something this album seals once and for all!
Either intentionally or unwittingly this is a band experimenting with extremes. Formed in 1985 when Thatcherism swooped over England and scalped the North East, Hellbastard admit to being ‘’too metal for punk, too punk for metal’’, instead coining the term ‘’crust’’ as a way to feel at peace within themselves whilst simultaneously starting a sonic war that shocked the nerves into spools of frayed tape. With Malcolm ‘’Scruff’’ Lewty on guitar and vocals, Ian ‘’Scotty’’ Scott on bass and vocals and Phil Laidlow on drums, it was all captured with their classic Ripper Crust Demo debut release in 86’. But really, it's all encapsulated right here with this reissue also containing the follow-up demo-lition from ‘87 - Hate Militia. Both are perfect ways to establish the nightmarish worlds, of death camps and dark sides, that wildly writhe within his group’s menacing worldview.
Third press of the 4th full length by the Italian vampire punx. Eight tracks of pure passion, desperation, anger and questions that will never be answered. Darker than ever and with a new rhythm section that'll make you twist and shout, this record will drag you down the abyss of existence to release you releaved and stronger than before. Fans of The Cult, A Flock Of Seagulls, Chameleons and Fields Of The Nephilim won't be disappointed. Artwork by Andrea Bonini (Aus Tears). Mastered by Nick Townsend.
