CD review: 'In Light of Dark Days' - Necromance

From Northern Ireland, Lisburn, the EP advancement of this band that make doom death metal or as they are called Slow Death Metal, comes THE CRAWLING . Newly formed in 2014, we are approaching this world of misery and contempt around us along three songs that form their EP "In Light Of Dark Days", recreating a dark and aggressive atmosphere, with very heavy guitars and a guttural deep and torn by Andy Clarke a suicio and forceful low by Stuart Rainey also makes his vocal escapades and accompanying pecusión hand perfectly Gary Beattie.

It is a dark disk, where happiness is left parked across the sidewalk is impossible to achieve and which have been published by GrindScene Records and a very good artwork design and charcoal where a female figure is diluted in the dark .

"The Right To Crawl" begins show journey into darkness, slowly, with hints doom and guitars reminiscent of MY DYING BRIDE, while the guttural voice appears to accelerate the pace and enter a dark debacle, with duality of voices ranging from acute and guttural. It is an endless mountain that rises and falls constantly pace, but like a marshland it were grabs you and hypnotizes you with the melodies of guitars.

"End Of The Rope". Has a mysterious beginning and acoustic, where the heaviest records in both vocal and guitar riffs make their presence, a march towards the abyss without pause, alternating acoustic beautiful passages with dense and heavy riffs distorted. A short but intense theme with a more open closure, with hints of black post.

"Catatonic" is the last track of this EP and the longest in turn is one of the ones I like, though with only three subjects and three good is difficult to keep some, but chose this for its composition musical, more spun from a sedate start, introducing us to the sound of a storm and rain that interweaves with the original bass and rhythmic percussion, while the guitars and voices through the curtain of water appear. A theme doom or slow death, dense, heavy and melodic, which develops and accelerates at intervals showing a malignant aggressiveness with bass and treble guttural cries, (this part is amazing, the counterpoint to get with alternating rhythms) to return back to their heavy travel through the mud. In its final part, it changes structurally and with a strong rhythm guitar adds a touch of class to the theme tune, varying it in terms of voices and guitars to return to home and put the finishing touch.

THE CRAWLING with this EP, leaves a good taste waiting for his long life, he knows a little three very good songs which especially emphasizes "Catatonic" and secondly "End Of The Rope". An EP that will listen dozens of times in the remaining days of winter.

8/10

LIVE review: Bloodstock 2016 - The Moshville Times

After hearing the last few songs of XII boar, I meandered over to the New Blood tent to catch the last bit of The Crawling (8) . Having a kind of doom sound mixed with death metal vocals, I was suitably impressed by them. The crowd present for them seemed to be too with a lot of folk banging their heads or fist pumping the air. Bloodstock 2016 – Friday (James’s view) The Moshville Times

CD review: 'Anatomy Of Loss' - Ram zine

There’s some great titles on this album and one is ‘An Immaculate Deception’ that possesses some tough and twisting rhythms with a deep dark grunting vocal that you can feel in your gut as it rips your intestines out! Moving on to the next track ‘Poison Orange’ I can almost hear the band laughing when they thought up this track title, but also can feel the harshness brooding as it plays out and leaks its venomous liquid through its vicious assault, and this is without being played fast. ‘Acid on my Skin’ speaks volumes from its title and will have you believe that it is toxic and caustic and of course you would be right to believe as its abrasive mark is made with a very potent vocal and large slices of darkened rhythms. ‘All Our Failings’ is a very imposing track that holds a lot of insatiable bait. It begins fast and then slows down to reveal that it can’t make up its mind if it wants to move faster or slower so you just have to go along with the flow, however, the track contain...

CD review: 'Anatomy Of Loss' - Skullfukker

This is a new experience to me but as soon as I randomly start listening to 'An Immaculate Deception & 'Acid On My Skin' I'm fuckin' excited 'cause this is hard hitting quality doom metal but at the same time it does not leave you waiting for world doom part 3. It's aggressive,punchy,catchy and all you want from a good album really,I forgot to mention brutal 'cause it is at times ,like a mix of death metal and doom metal, I guess it depends on how you see it. Anyways, 'Anatomy Of Loss' is suitable for most occations, I'm having a small party now and when I out out of a sudden decided to try this one the party suddenly moved to the next level and everybpdy seeems satisfied. What you get is 7 long lasting tracks from 5-9 mins and value for every penney, and by the way it's spinning for the second time now by popular demand. The Crawling is a band who knows what they do and leave nothing to coincidences, it's professionally excecut...
