ASTRAL
CORPSE #1
Here's
a new Death metal zine released in this wave of the
new-new-school-of-old-school-Death metal (That might
invade all the underground if it grows bigger and intensifies
putridly speaking) that contains a quite cool choice
of interviewed bands: GRAVEYARD, NAUSEANT, CRUCIAMENTUM,
CACODAEMON/ LANTERN, VANHELGD, KARNARIUM, INFINITUM
OBSCURE, FORCE OF DARKNESS, STARGAZER, FATHER BEFOULED
and COSMIC ATROPHY (Ok, there are not only N-NSOOSDM
bands... The editor "Gives praise and support to
worthy, hard-working bands" and seems happy Death
metal grows stronger again). These are informative,
personalized and sometimes with a bit more of thought,
but also sometimes too classical as it could explore
deeper or different topics (To re-energize the reading
beast ahah). There are also few but quite long reviews
and an ABSU live report. Well, I expected this zine
to be a bit longer, but for a first issue it's not bad
and stands as quite encouraging for the following. Hope
the second comet will reach our planet with more pages
and a bit more personality, since the world eater needs
a stronger ass-kick to be fully awaken from his centuries
long sleep...
