Distorted Cognitions

THIS IS WHAT XUL LIVES FOR.

Something so utterly ugly, so disgustingly terrible to listen to, that it rots your eyes with its vibrations, krushes your nose with its stamping distortion, and shakes your brain violently like a crazed mother that has had enough of her crying new born.



Imagine finding an album that contains a song that instantly sends shooting visions into your mind of T-800's punching the fukk out of each other in an engine room, screaming their cyborg curses, and totally destroying everything. See Track - 3.



All in all, I'm glad and feel lucky to have discovered this album/band, as I believe it is a true representation of what can be created with enough wires, hate and of course, Xul in your soul/CPU.

Aska - Där Vanvett Gror



This is what Xul considers ugly, very fukking ugly.
Like a fat 8 foot Predator with slight retard features.
Unrelenting darkness blazing through half an hour of well spent time.

When I first picked up this bands demo in 2004 I was drawn to a description as to what the running theme happened to be, which was, Rape, Murder, Drugs, Torture and Hate. Obviously I was driven to purchase, and what I got was pretty much what you'll hear on this release, only this time around I wonder if this was recorded within a padded cell constructed and driven deep into the earth where only the most insane and black minds can be held.

Ondskapt - Arisen From The Ashes

Ondskapt.
Now this is an album I've been waiting for.
The previous two efforts have been solid rocks of enjoyment.
The first album took a while to grow for me, it sounded like Ondskapt were trying to worship DMDS era Mayhem, the album had the same feel to it, but after many listens I "got it".
Their second release was and is a haunting, powerful, tormented offering.

So fingers crossed, this effort should prove to be just as solid and maybe even more malevolent.

Update - Yep, my album of the week.
This is in the same line as a band like Ofermod...Orthodox Black Metal that has been put together like a T-800.
This isn't simply Satanic Black Metal, it's more mature than your average attempt at the Devil's soundtrack...
This differs slightly from the last Ondskapt, as that differed from the one before it, it's still the same creative talent, just a step beyond..killer stuff.

Urna - Iter Ad Lucem

More quality from Urna.
You can expect the same greatness as was witnessed on their previous album, highly recommended.
