Circle of Dead Children
Psalms of the Grand Destroyer
Rating
Style: Grindcore
Release date: June 7th 2010
 

Circle of Dead Children broke their five years silence. We have fifteen tracks, some of which last less than a minute. The guys are proud of their traditional death metal approach toward recordings. However this is not influenced over the production or the stylistics. This is traditional grindcore in which the slow parties are only connection from one grind to another grind. I patiently tried to find out something specific about the band in the riffs: Nothing! We meet again traditional and faceless grunting in a low boar-ish register and high squealing of emotional pig with some replicas that could be understood.

 

Boring for the style (Oh, no... again!) blood, guts and anti-everything pose. The ideology and the cacophony brim in noise-core. There is not any biting chaff!

 

Circle of Dead Children has a magnificent logo. Their return is somehow full of childish naivety and without any joke. The ultimate brutality reached its end long ago. They have something against me? (“…and anti-you”). I am sure that it is true – a new album. Candlelight Records have a taste toward risk, but they are not the first who risk with this band as far as I remember.
