Rot in Hell "2007 demo" one-sided 7"
Posted on Tuesday, September 11th, 2007 @ 5:41am » permalink
A mere three tracks, barely over six minutes, yet all gold. This UK metallic hardcore outfit takes "holy terror" so seriously they've got fuckin' Robert DeGrimston in their cover art! A little more Gehenna than Clevo to these ears (though there's a good dose of early Ringworm and raw, primal Integrity in there – complete with some dead on little Melnick-ian lead bursts), expect short, chugging onslaughts of pissed off and ruggedly recorded (in the best possible way) material that absolutely leaves you wanting more. They've got split 7"s with Brain Dead and The Process on the way (hopefully I can get my hands on those tracks as well), and the demo's gonna be released as a one-sided 7" by Hemlock13 at some point in the relatively near future as well. Oh, and did I mention there's a fucking Meanstreak cover!? Hot damn… "Final Word" is still one of the greatest hardcore songs ever written. I love these motherfuckers!
Purchase:
Well, you can't yet, so… contact the label on MySpace and see what's up with a release date. I don't think the band even has a MySpace page or anything like that. "Kvlt". If this is gonna be a new trend, sign me up. Long fucking live "holy terror"…
You can tell from the cover alone that this kicks a ridiculous batch of ass. I would buy six copies even if both sides were blank.
Those leads are indeed Melnickian. Nice find.
pure pure holy terror.
these boys love clevo and Gehenna more than they hate jesus. and thats loads.
The best fucking clevo band in the world at the moment.
Hail Melnick.
We had demo's on CD and tape but they've sold out now, so people do have copies to trade/sell, the demo 7" should be out well soon anyway, everythings pretty much done.
Sounds really good, i have to say and that one song just left wanting more…
i wish i could get this on CD. I fucking hate vinyls.
This is the shit.The song kick ass. Fore sure I will buy the vinyl … Thnxx again Andrew for uncovered a new gem.
Holy terror is still alive !
Be sure to check out the Age Of Kali demo as well. So good.
There are plans for a RIH CD containing the 5 tracks from the forthcoming split releases with Braindead, Hordes and the Process plus the demo and six new songs exclusive to that collection. Not sure on whose putting it out though.
Hmm Andrew, how the fuck do you keep finding'em. Glad to have you back. These band is awesome, just listening to this one song is having me dusting of my interity, ringworm and congress cd's.
Great band live too.
