KORPSE

TERRORIZER REVIEW - May 1996

KORPSE 'Revirgin' CANDLELIGHT. 5/5.

"KORPSE, the Aberdonian trio once described as a bastard hybrid of VOIVOD and AUTOPSY, are the best Metal band in the UK. That's my view, and this killer second album consolidates it. It goes like this: there's a huge, heavy sound, underpinned with Fluff's snarling, distorted bass, rolling along like a juggernaut. There's the AUTOPSY. But there's tricks at every turn, touches of unexpected compexity. There's the VOIVOD. What you don't hear is either of those bands being ripped off: KORPSE have their own sound. It's original.

They have balls, class and groove. Sure, they do SABBATH riffs, like a lot of bands. But if you're going to do this one to the max, you need groove. Cool riffs and muscular agile drumming. KORPSE have both in spades. The music is well written and played with absoloute conviction and authority. The sound is layered: the music is embellished with touches of class throughout, sounds and variations which make each track an exotic tattoo. It's this sort of maturity which allows them to take on an instumental like '19 Dyce' and carry it off, which distinguishes songs like 'Mirror Distance' or the title track from what's going on south of the border. Special nod to Taff's drumming: his playing is exeptional and gets better the more you listen.

Not everyone will embrace this band. The vocals are Death Metal, but DM fans sometimes get put off by the lack of gore-sodden imagery, and it's true that Fluff's smart aggressive lyrics seem to be more Hardcore than Metal. But if any part of you really appreciates music, CHECK IT OUT. Standout tracks? All of 'em. These stoners are on a roll."

The godfathers of the Aberdeen death metal scene! Formed in early/mid 90's. Signed to Candlelight Records. Released 2 albums. Great reviews. Supported and toured with Boltthrower, Gorefest, Benediction. Released a compilation of demos and unheard material in 2005.'

ANTI VIGILANTE

"ANTI VIGILANTE have had universal praise for their new album, 'TEMPEST' released at the start July. It is a beast of a record and will turn heads and switch opinions, many times, more of a hardcore album than traditional skapunk, I should have expected it when they asked to support Sepultura last year." - Their Booker

Four-piece skacore mash up from Milton Keynes. Since forming in 2004 the band has played extensively across the UK alongside the likes of Leftover Crack, Strung Out, Capdown, Random Hand, The King Blues and Ghost of a Thousand as well as embarking on UK wide tours with The Skints, We Are The Union, The JB Conspiracy and Dirty Revolution.

Their style owes as much to low strung... hardcore noise as it does to the UK skacore scene that came before them, creating a dynamic that shows potential to achieve a great deal in their genre.

MICKEY 9S

Genre: Superfluent Sizzzle Beat.

Four gorgeous young lads appeared in the hovels of Glasgow's wicked streets. Yay, tis true. From small, miserable dwellings they emerged with but one intention: to hoach the place to smithereens. Armed only with a huge supply of Bass and snippets of a culture lost in the mists of modernity they proceeded to beast the place up, much to the delight of the local inhabitants, who had grown sore in the groin from funk deficiencies. They were friends extraordinaire, a band of brothers in each others' mothers, only too well aware of the potentials of Beat: the rest is silence. And then MICKEY 9 explosion time! And then silence. And then applause for ever and ever, amen.

Band interests: Quite interested in Debt Consolidation.

www.facebook.com/mickey9s

+ support fae: TOKEPromising an energetic set of full on party metal, Montrose/Aberdeen-based quartet Toke list their interests as “fighting, drinking, smoking and sex”.

STANLEY

Bands rarely enjoy comparisons, but if you were to take the intelligence of The Divine Comedy, the creativity of Radiohead circa The Bends and the soaring vocal talents of Scott Walker you wouldn't be far away. And that can't be bad, can it?

+ SOULFIRE

A real firecracker of a contemporary soul band, with all the features of that classic soul sound. High energy and drive, breath-taking arrangements and delivered with all enveloping style, rhythm and furious energy. The band’s influences are many and diverse; The Small Faces, Humble Pie, PP Arnold, Etta James, Nina Simone, The Black Keys, The Black Crowes, Free, Neil Young, Sly and the Family Stone, Grand Funk Railroad, Credence Clearwater Revival, Jefferson Airplane, Led Zeppelin, Patti Smith, Stevie Nicks, Janis Joplin, Sharon Jones & the Dap-Kings, The Who, Prince, The Cure and The Smiths.
