0 The Killchain Blog – Gomorrah – The Haruspex (Test Your Metal Records)
Gomorrah are a Canadian three piece that plays crushing deathcore/death metal, laden with strange tones and riffing. Taking cues from the oddness of fellow Canadians Gorguts and Ulcerate, Gomorrah’s ‘The Haruspex’ is an album full of alien melodies and devastating brutality.

NECRONOMICON have a well-earned reputation for quality by releasing material only when ready and satisfied with the outcome ever since their demo entitled “Morbid Ritual” (1992) firmly established their name within the underground. “The Silver Key” EP (1996) led to mainstream recognition on a national level, but their debut album “Pharaoh Of Gods” (1999) and the sophomore “The Sacred Medicines” (2003) did even more to establish the band as a household name in Canada. “Return Of The Witch” (2010) marked the international break-through for NECRONOMICON, and saw them performing at prestigious festivals such as Inferno (Norway), Ragnarok (Germany), and the Barge To Hell metal cruise among others, while sharing stages with acts such as CRADLE OF FILTH, DIMMU BORGIR, BEHEMOTH, and MORBID ANGEL, to name but a few. Their steady advance around the globe grew considerably in impact by their next full-length “Rise Of The Elder Ones” (2013). NowNECRONOMICON are more than ready for the next step with ‘Advent Of The Human God’, their latest brutal assaulting soundtrack now available via Season of Mist for North America as of March 25th.
Delivering a lethal dose of symphonic, blackened death at a new height in their long lasting career, which began as early as 1988 with the founding of the band by guitarist and singer Rob “The Witch” in the deep northern part of Quebec, Canada known as the “Fjord of Saguenay”
The Canadian veterans keep their tracks on ‘Advent Of The Human God’ as gloriously epic as furiously massive and harsh. Songs like “The Golden Gods”, “Unification Of The Four Pillars”, “Crown Of Thorns” and “I Bringer Of Light” tell of experienced songwriting and an eclectic wide range of influences that flow into the sound of NECRONOMICON. Nodding to DIMMU BORGIR and BEHEMOTH to DEICIDE and SUFFOCATION, these extreme metal addicts carve their own sound out of the much cherished ingredients of brutal dark music.
Vocalist Rob The Witch comments on the album’s release:
“And here it is, our latest chapter in the book that is Necronomicon. The most brutal and at the same time the most atmospherically imbued of the events of what it is to be a divine part of the universe. As part of the great energy we have to understand and take our rightful place in the creation, to open the path so the mass can open their eyes and ascension as spiritual beings toward the future and beyond all matter of the flesh. Now witness the Advent of The Human God.”

Guitarist Manuel Iradian comments on recording with Glen Robinson.
“Its been a privilege recording our two new singles with heavy hitter Glen Robinson. Our band has definitely been feeling the pressure working with a man with such a tight ear and a sharp stylistic vision. He has this very amicable and humble approach despite his demand for structure and clean lines. I can confidently say that our song writing has matured into something that just works.”

In short you get some of the black & death metal chaos that The Black Dahlia Murder is known for with the sludge groove of a Crowbar or more recent EyeHateGod. At the end of the day it’ll have you banging your head and that’s what metal is all about!
