Today I saw at the television a group of religious believers, who are thinking that within now and a year the end of ours days is coming in sight. How easy and cheap to predict this now, after a few apocalypses have strike the earth. The horrible truth of mankind is used in favour of their foolish beliefs. When nature calls we all shall drown…

And how glad I am that before my final and sure death I have witnessed both live (last year) and now also on CD, the ultimate death grooving and haunting machine Ulcerate. This band already hit me in the face last year during their tour with Nile. When a band can nail you straight and stable to the ground (You see I keep following the religious references) and absorbs you completely and makes you stand fascinating listening, watching and tripping for 45 minutes, than you can understand that something unique and mind-blowing is happening. Like an internal apocalypse.

Now I hold in my hands the by Hammerheart released version of their 3rd album “The Destroyers Of All”, I have to admit, that after the live show last year I forgot to check out their CD’s, but I am completely hit, stroke and taken away again by their apocalyptic music. Haunting, hypnotising, grooving, horrifying and taking out every single feeling by every nerve alive in your body. Intense, brutal, harsh, mystifying and alienating music. No apocalypse, catastrophe and final day will be the same after this experience. When the destroyer of all has destroyed it all, you can rest in piece and patience. Waiting for that final day that all your tears will be washed away, till then you have the Ulcerate experience. Live I described the band as the Wolves In The Throne Room of death metal, I think that fits it more than suitable.

The song titles will give you a cold becoming with there apocalypse influenced lyrics like “Dead Oceans” and “Burning Skies”. This music is the forecast of “The Destroyers Of All“ final days. Enjoy this end joy!

Apocalyptic haunting death metal, my god what a gift to have heard this before the earth will stand still… very intense gruesome death metal! Majestic!
