Review
Demon Metal marks the second release from Chile originated band Perversor, released roughly two years after the band's debut full length release. While this effort only clocks in at a little less then eighteen minutes, the release still stands strong for the act, as it carries the same brutal and uncompromising Black, Death, and Thrash metal sound that they started with. This makes Demon Metal the perfect entry into the band if you have yet to experience their brand of onslaught. The music found here easily isn't some of the most original material, but it's not really restrained in any way either. Demon Metal is packed with uncompromising blistering mosh anthems that will make any fan of the old-school metal sound happy right from the start with "Detonate", only releasing the strangle hold from your neck for a few moments on the more chant-like beginning of "Victory of the Legions of the Damned" as well as the slower start of "Enthrone the God of Blasphemy". All of this is enhanced by the rather raw production quality that only benefits the music that has the album at a lower quality then much of today's recording standards, but still clear enough that the band's overall impact is felt. The heavy guitar distortion gives the album that much more of a bite, and the deeply echoed vocals are still clear enough that you could understand, but still sounds as if they are being performed by some sort of monster. Perversor have put together one very devastation EP that thrives by taking some of the heavier style of Thrash metal from the earlier days, and meshes it perfectly with a backdrop of menacingly evil Black and Death Metal sounds that will leave you begging for me. Demon Metal is a release that you can throw on repeat and will not get old, even if the songs don't sound significantly different from one another at times. If you're looking for something to break the menotony of breakdowns and keyboard-based solos that have turned Metal into a very melodic commodity, then give this release a try because you only be disappointed in the fact that it's so short, and of so addicting.
