DEATHRITE - Revelation Of Chaos (CD)

Not too many bands share the ability to instinctively hit the sweet spot where only the most severe elements of Death Metal, Grindcore and Punk converge. Surely one of the most thrilling acts of this rare breed are Deathrite from Dresden, Germany, who have honed their knuckle-dragging savagery for four years over a series of releases, including the highly praised Into Extinction, released through the esteemed German label Per Koro in 2013. The preliminary peak of this malign mixture is Deathrite's newest album 'Revelation of Chaos.' The outcome sounds like a beer- and blood-soaked Death Metal show that might very well have happened in a Swedish basement around 1992, including the trademark HM2 sound that hasn't been presented in such sordid perfection since Dismember's Like an Ever Flowing Stream. Yet the songwriting is so bare-bones to the point that Revelation of Chaos will bring together Metalheads, Punks, and Grindcore freaks at ease to destroy themselves in every Mosh Pit ever.
