Druidus from Saskatchewan, Canada – produce an abstract and raging brand of chaotic
black/death, which should appeal to the most diehard of devotees of the genre.
The demo in question features four brutish compositions, including a killer
cover of Black Witchery’s ‘Unholy Vengeance of War’ – which sounds fucking deranged to say the least, but
with a depraved touch of its own. Druidus’
style is a little different compared to their contemporaries, in the sense that
they incorporate some crust/hardcore influences. This approach seems to work
really well for them. The vocals are shared between two band members, and are
ravaging and fierce, giving the music a powerful element. The atmosphere
created is putrid and shrouded in pure fucking evil, with the instrumental side
of the music being rather well implemented and carried out with conviction. From
start to finish, this demo is pure pedal to the metal mayhem. This band is
definitely recommended if you enjoy the brutal and abyssic resonance exhibited by
bands such as Bestial Raids, Nuclear Desecration and Profanatica. I'll also
include that there will be new material from the band on an upcoming split with
Canadian warmongers, Goathammer, which sounds even more tumultuous than the
material featured on this demo.
