Description
on Per Koro
DEATHRITE is undoubtedly the definite embodiment of the unholy alliance of music’s heaviest spawns. Already smashing skulls and breaking necks with their previous releases, their 1st proper full-length “into extinction” even exceeds these earlier recordings with its uncontainable fury, knuckle-dragging brutality and filthy riff bombardment. DEATHRITE merged only the most severe elements of death-metal, grindcore, hardcore and punk to create an absolutely merciless, harsh record that stands out like a monument of savagery in nowadays watered down scene – a fact also valid for their forceful, stunning live performance that most likely turns into a beer- and blood-soaked mayhem.

While on the “self-titled” debut even stronger hardcore influences mixed with fast grindcore passages were heard, on “into extinction” the old-school death-metal clearly takes the lead. The mood of the guys always reminds you a bit of early ’90s ENTOMBED and DISMEMBER, the massiveness could also come directly from the pen of ASPHYX and everything is played with a crusty SKITSYSTEM or WOLFBRIGADE sound, which unstoppably whips forward. The re-press of “into extinction” (originally released in 2013) comes on orange translucent vinyl, with a lyricsheet, black innersleeve and includes a digital download card. This album crushes every fake ever!
