This is a 2 disc set, compiling the 5 early demo recordings from this Czech brutal-death metal trio. These demos were originally recorded on cassette tapes and then converted to CD's that were digitally remastered. So at times the audio may have moments of distortion, especially on the vocals of 3 of these demos, and occasionally you can hear the tape drag. The arrangement of these 5 works are staggered in a different order than their chronological date order of release. Possibly that was an attempt to mix up the poor audio quality with the better audio quality. The 2 discs are recorded at a very loud volume, which can be a plus, if the headphones of your MP3 player only conduct a low volume of audio.
Disc 1 contains the demo tapes Breath of Death(self produced,1988) and Pocity Detronizace(self produced,1991), which means feelings of dethronization in the Czech language. Disc 2 contains the demo tapes Total Destruction(1988, self produced), Brutal Death(1988, self produced), and Feelings of Dethronisation (1991, self produced). On disc 1, the intro starts with some organ playing that sounds like something from a Dracula movie. Tracks 1 through 10 (the demo Breath of Death) contain lots of high octane thrashing and intricate shredding. Christopher demonstrates his fretboard wizardry with this demo. The vocal audio sounds horrible though Christopher did a decent job with his "death breath." The audio of Breath of Death(tracks 1-10) sounds real crappy with lots of static. Maybe that's why this demo was put first on this compilation.
Tracks 11-15(the Pocity Detronizace demo, 1991) sound much clearer. The vocals are emphasized with echoes and are yelled in a much more grimmer and darker style. There are some very crafty guitar solos on this section. It's a shame that this wasn't recorded with more bass sound on the equalizer, it's got way too much midrange sound. These songs are very good and would sound much better wih more bass sound. Track 15, Pacifisticka Smrt Thrashes at an extremely fast pace and is a very intense jam. It's absolutely awesome.
Disc 2 starts off with Total Destruction(self produced 1988). This is my favorite disc of the album. It's very energetic with a strong punk rock influence. The drums sound deep and rich with very skilled playing. There's plenty of intense thrashing on this disc. Zakerny Valcnik has a very cool rhythm that sounds like a punk metal anthem. There's lots of very melodic guitar shredding that seems to be influenced by Jimi Hendrix. Znameni Zla sounds like the old Adrenalin OD(old American punk metal band) song Rock N' Roll Gas Station . Tajemstvi Hrbitova has lots of catchy punk rock hooks to accentuate the interludes of thrash metal. Besnici Valka shreds incredibly, though the vocal quality reverts to crappy audio again and the remainder of the songs rock with melodic shredding and grinding, with crappy audio.
This music is raw and melodic, with very talented musicians. Similar artists are Sarcofago and Venom.
