BESTIAL RAIDS - Order of Doom (Demo CDR 2004)
Time
for some total bunker and sonic annihilation! Why? Well, demos like this one do
sound like recorded in a bunker or fuckin catacomb hehe! But seriously now.
Here is a second demo of Polish deathsquadron called Bestial Raids. And I am
sure that many will know this band nowadays, as they’ve released a couple of
excellent albums through Nuclear War Now! and gained some recognition in the
worldwide black / death metal scene. More so, Bestial Raids played some very
crucial gigs, like the NWN! Fest. So definitely this name should be known to
the maniacs of the extreme music! Here is their demo titled “Order of Doom”. I
also should have the previous demo CDR “Necrowar Holocaust” (what a suitable
title!!!) somewhere, but I couldn’t find it anywhere. Anyway, I can say one
thing: if you like Bestial Raids for their ultimate black / death devastation
and only know the full length albums, then you should definitely also try to
get the demos!
This
music is obviously for die hard maniacs only. It won’t speak to those, who only
like their metal to sound highly professional, polished and over technical or
whatever. This is not for these people and Bestial Raids is a complete opposite
to all that. It is one of those bands, which you’ll hate for their cruel,
bunker production, which is more like a rehearsal recording than anything
else... it is also one of those bands, which offer a total devastation,
uncompromised, merciless sonic attack. It’s bestial and primitive… It’s a chaos
and noise, but damn... in case of some bands, such as Bestial Raids, it works
beautifully. And sure, “Order of Doom” may not be quite as awesome as their
second LP “Prime Evil Damnation”, which is just KILLER, but it is still damn
good, in my opinion. I also liked the previous demo “Necrowar Holocaust”, by
the way. “Order of Doom” is very intense, vicious, it is an extermination of
all sacred and a real blast in the head of chaotic and severe black / death
metal in the vein of Archgoat, Black Witchery and Blasphemy. If you’re into
this style of music, then I am sure that you’re familiar with Bestial Raids
already. Others probably would not be able to enjoy these cacophonous sounds,
so they should not even bother.
Final
rate: 70/100
