I have known some of the boys from Sanctus Infernum for some time now in some other local bands in the Wichita, Kansas area. I do believe they have gotten it right with this recording. Slamming out eight creations of dark, heavy, suffering, metal tunes fit just right in my riff leaden hart that craves for more. “Flesh Without Sin”, “God Unto Myself”, “The Journey Back”, “Facing The Black”, “Suffer”, “Waking The Dead”, “What Calm is Without Storm”, “Let It Be So” will bring you into a world of melodic extremes of raw classical metal. Mark Anderson - Guitar (Grand Facade, Manilla Road), Ricky Vannatta - Vocals (Grand Facade, Chapel of the Eye), Chris Johnson – Drums, Jason Banks – bass have created a monster sound that needs to be experienced by all fans of heavy.

Brainscab Diagnosis=Blackened Symphony: Eyes Of Eternity
Noisehead Records
With so many extreme metal bands out there when is it time to stop and listen to the ones that really make some noise. Well, this is one of those times. Blackened Symphony’s “Eyes Of Eternity”, catches the imagination of all that is metal. Throwing the listener sounds of progressive epic dark muze that makes for a uniquely spine thumping experience of extreme. “Apocalypse Of Human Creation”, “Eyes Of Eternity”, “Mother Fuckers’, “Initation Of The Depths”, “Flash Of Death”, “Morbid Evolution”, “Dead Line”, “Kingdom Of Ice”, “Falling Down”, “Agony”, all swaying of death, darkness and hate. Experience the symphonic force of Blackened Symhony’s “Eyes Of Eternity.

Brainscab Diagnosis=Acid Drinkers: Are You Rebel?
I can see this band in a smoke filled bar with a one toothed bar made serving the drinks and a fat bar tender who is retired form the military. Up on the stage (or the corner of the bar) just off the dance floor with a stripper pole and a mirror ball is Acid Drinkers. Flirting with the drunk chick regulars and getting into fights with the red-necks. “Del Rocca”, “Barmy Army”, “I mean Acid (do you like it)”, “Waitin’ For The Hair”, “L.O.V.E. Machine”, “Fuck The Violence (I’m Sure I’m Right)”, “I Am The Mystic”, “Woman With The Dirty Feet”, “Megalopolis”, “Nagasaki Baby”, “Moshin’ In The Night”, “Mike Cwel”, being the tunes of the evening. Are You Rebel? is a good time rock and roll, beer drinking bar fighting, bad one liners just to get laid kind of LP to have around.

Brainscab Diagnosis=Abominant: Where Demons Dwell
Deathgasm Records
These masters of Brutality come at us once again with a Death driven slab called” Where Demons Dwell”! After you have experienced this effort of blasting metal you will never be able to forget “Baptized By Steel”, “Bloodland”, “Firestorm”, “Rain Of Ash”, “After The Fallout”, “The Wolves Of Hate”, Blackened Earth”, “Where Demons Dwell”, from the ruptured eardrums down to the cracked bones of your spin. Abominant is Death metal and Death metal is Abominant. You won’t ever be able to forget it either after this experience.

Brainscab Diagnosis=Suicidal Angels: Dead Again
Noiseart Records
For those born in “Damnation” can feel “Reborn In Violence” of a “Bleeding Holocaust”. It is for those in “The Trial” given a “Suicide Solution” be they a “Beggar Of Scorn” so they will be “Victimized” with “Violent Abuse”. When they see “The Lies Of Resurrection” to only be left with a “Search For Recreation” to feel the darkness of being “Dead Again” awaiting for the “Final Dawn. “Suicidal Angels” bring the message on wings of those that are “Dead Again”.

Brainscab Diagnosis=Skyclad: Prince Of The Poverty Line
Imagine taking the likes of Iron Maiden, Savatage and W.A.S.P. mixing it with a Celtic/Cajun grim sound, thus is created Skyclad. With “Prince Of The Poverty Line”, you will experience the underside of what we label as “Civilization”. When you experience the full throttle of this pure epic power metal outfit you will have an understanding why metal is the only genre of music for the likes of my soul. “Civil War Dance”. “Cardboard City”, “Sins Of Emission”. “Land Of The Rising Slum”, “The One Piece Puzzle”, “A Bellyful Of Emptiness”, “A Dog In The Manger”, “Gammadion Seed”, “Womb Of The Worm”, “The Truth Famine”, all send a message to open our eyes and look past the pretty lights of the city and the scent of blooming flowers in your gardens and see the filth, smell the stench that is man. But, that is not all Skyclad has to offer here! “Brother Beneath The Skin”, Widdershing Jig”, “The Cradle Will Fall”, are also hidden thorns on this LP. “Prince Of The Poverty Line”, is for those wanting their ear candy to be non-politacaly correct and with a bit of attitude then this is it.
