Bestial Warlust "Vengeance War´Till Death" Modern Invasion Music (1994)


After the first Black Metal age, one might think it a safe bet to stay away from this release. I couldn’t agree more! That is unless you want your stereo to suffer complete nuclear meltdown! No one but the most extreme individual will find any common ground with this music. To the normal person it would sound like a wall of noise about to crash down on the listener in rage and fury.

This album has been around for quite some time now, and I have yet to find another, that even comes close to the destructive quality "Vengeance War ‘till Death" release date in 1994, sound unholy unleashes. Bands such as Conqueror and Black Witchery don’t even come close in songwriting or execution. And where those bands quickly grow stale, this does not. The more you listen, the more you understand. The tracklist are: 

1. Bestial Warlust
2. Dweller of the Bottomless Pit
3. Satanic
4. Heathens
5. Hammering Down the Law of the New Gods / Holocaust Wolves of the Apocalypse
6. Storming Vengeance
7. At the Graveyard of God


The line up in this album was: "Bloodstorm" in vocals, "Joe Skullfucker" and "K.K. Warslut" in the blasphemous guitars, Chris Corpsemolester in bass, Marcus Hellcunt in drums. Five australian demons who make a cult album at '90s, worship for underground scene arround the world. Totally insane since beggining. 

The first four songs are akin to tearing down your living room walls with a STIHL Magnum 049 chainsaw. They gain momentum with crashing guitars that sound like mortars exploding, insane growling vocals that become so distorted with bloodlust they are completely indecipherable at times. The drums pound with barbaric ferocity, ready to slay anyone and anything in their path.


To me, this sits right up there with Incantation’s Upon the Throne of Apocalypse, or Blasphemy’s Fallen Angel of Doom. The main difference is the vocals are not as deep and the overall sound is slightly higher with many more guitar leads. There is a section on Dweller of the Bottomless Pit where, on a good stereo, the bottom drops right out from under you and the earth shakes. Insanity!

The only complaint I would have is the last half of the album loses its intensity a bit. But shit, how could you possibly make a song more perfectly chaotic and aggressive than the fore mentioned? This is metal! Pure Fucking Satanic War Metal! Play this CD as loud as you can, and watch your neighbors suffer apocalyptic death!!



Hail BESTIAL WARLUST!!!
