Ravencult,
a 4-piece ensemble from Greece, landed it's foundation in 2001. "Cosmic
Chaos" is only their 2nd demo, so these guys are still in their
relative childhood-era as a band. This demo, however, does not lack
in aggressiveness or speed nor does it lack edge. I did find the "Hugo
Weaving" intro to the disc very entertaining, but it is a fairly
adequate product as to where the music is going. That brings me to
my next point. At times, I hear reminiscence of older-Himinbjorg or
Primordial and most other times, Ravencult is just a flat-out extreme
black/death assault. There are but 4 tracks on this demo CD, but it
stands near the 20 minute mark. My favorite track is "Cosmic
Chaos Pandemonium"! Basically, this track accumulates a similarity
to Mayhem & Enslaved while simultaneously stretching the boundaries
of death/thrash-style riffing. My advice to you is if you want to
hear a new breed of black, blasphemic order, definitely look into
Ravencult! They're promising. Rating: 79 Reviewed By: Thomas Mitchell |
