Written and performed by Juan Usurper, who spent significant time in early line ups of Proclamation and Teitanblood, this demo tape has nine songs in twenty minutes. Expect plenty of blasts, schismatic solos and Spanish vocals over brute force riffs. It sounds like an early Cogumelo band has been placed in a blender with a strong dose of Vomitor, which is a description designed to excite maniacs. Apparently recorded on an 8 track, this one man band has great potential. I'd like to see the next recording be done with a full band, but if it isn't, I don't think it would matter a lot. He is quite competent on all instruments, albeit played in the classic frantic style as mentioned above. The music hits its hardest when it slows down a bit (see track 6 for example) which gives it a chance to create more distinctive mood and feeling amongst the controlled chaos, as the blasts tread very closely to early Sarcofago at times (sometimes too closely). If you're a demo tape kinda maniac like me, then add this one to your list. It hits a certain spot.
