IGNOMINIOUS
TORMENTS #2
Sex
with Satan? Yes, I think the title of the old PILEDRIVER
song would fit quite well the musical content of this
quite new zine; The editor is currently very much into
bestial black metal or obscure Death metal and it kinda
shows inside of the pages. The zine has reduced since
issue one, it switched from A4 to A5 (Maybe to have
more evil spermatozoids per centimeter?) and the layout
is a bit clearer... Well "clearer" is just
a word, in fact the backgrounds are composed of flyers
he took from here and there and sometimes it's a little
messy (For ex, I thought the NECROS intie was with BLOODY
SIGN)... But don't let your zine-appeal being put down
by this aspect, the written part of the zine is cooler:
Contrary to many current zines, he did some interviews
live with a recorder and it can turn out to be good
and talkative. The other inties that were done a regular
way are more common, still decent, but maybe with not
enough skulldigging. There are also some reviews, well
there's a lot of black metal stuffs and he gets very
enthusiastic with some of it while in my humble rotting
tastes this is just more average crappy black metal!
Ah! But I guess it's again a matter of rotting tastes... As
you probably noticed, the chosen zine moniker is easy
to pronounce, it's not as fucked as Finnish language,
but I guess some tongues might have muscular troubles...
Even if there's a decent amount of Death metal (1/3?)
I feel it still tastes like black metal very often and
it shows the editor's background is located here. Well,
this zine is located somewhere between the lands of
the "decent", "cool" and "average".
It has good moments but things need to be improved.
I might say it's a quite promising zine for those into
necro and obscure extreme metal.
Interviews:
BLASPHEMOPHAGER, LEGIONS OF DEATH Recs, RITUALIZATION,
NECROS, BESTIAL MOCKERY, DEADLY SINS, MORBOSIDAD, THE
END 666.
