Draemora Unveil Their “Victorious” Music Video For New Album “Death Rectangle”

Video Premiere via TheCirclePit

New Album “Death Rectangle” Out Now!

Tour Dates (July/August) w/ Hed PE

Seattle progressive metalcore outfit Draemora is unveiling their latest music video for the track “Victorious” from their new album “Death Rectangle” recently unleashed on June 18th.

The video can be viewed via its premiere on TheCirclePit’s YouTube Channel – https://youtu.be/ty9Z919TfT4

“Victorious” was written right after guitarist Terry Paulson got a new 7 string guitar that was tuned to drop G. Instantly inspired by its sound, he completed the whole song in an evening. Showing it to his bandmates, the final version of “Victorious” was done in just a few days. Debating and anxious to release, the band originally thought of sharing the song as a single during the pandemic, but in the end, Draemora decided that it would be best positioned on their new full length.

“We were going to actually separate it from the album and let it be a song on its own, but at the last minute, we decided it was the perfect way to end the album because it has that great classic formula in there with a twist to the parts that really puts our stamp on it in a great way. We want people to enjoy it live, so we made big choruses and really big recognizable parts.” says the band.

Completely DIY with all the recordings done in Terry Paulson’s home studio including the mixing and mastering, Draemora‘s first full-length “Death Rectangle” has a lot more depth than their previous work, 2020’s debut EP “Awakening”. The band claim that has to do with the growing cohesiveness that comes with being together for over a year at this point. They also mention that this time around they were able to slow down and let everything come together, try out parts in the practice space a lot and make changes based on how they sounded performed to shorten the gap between live and studio performance. They continue to explain:

“Lyrically with Death Rectangle we wanted to make songs that anyone could very easily imprint their own life into. These songs all have deep meaning to us, but we stayed away from using any specific references so that the listener could make it whatever their imagination wants it to be. We think that is the best way to make a song. Musically, this collection of songs is mostly dark and heavy sounding. It wasn’t intentional, but when this was written we were all locked up and lost our jobs, and had to watch the world riot and go nuts so we’re not surprised it sounds that way.” 

What’s next for Draemora is live gigs with tour dates in July and August with Hed PE and another full length hopefully for next year. Exciting and rhythmic, they are recommended for fans of Periphery, Architects and Spiritbox.

“On this new album, DRAEMORA has truly explored an evolution from their previous release.” -Metal Temple

“Washington state groovedjentcore specialists…” – Metal Bulletin

“Fans of contemporary groove sounds should find something to like in this heaviness in the strings and in the growling, in the energy of it all, and there is also singing, which adds a melodic element to the toughness of their style. Here in Washington state, their name is getting some traction. Maybe the simplicity of the heaviness connects with listeners, perhaps is the core music stylings, too. Listen for yourself, and see.” – Metal Bulletin

“Draemora manages to do something that not a lot of first-time prog bands seem to do: create a simple, exciting album that doesn’t showboat or try to be TOO unique. The sound that ‘Death Rectangle’ has adopted is straight from the metal-core textbook, and it works. The unique spin they have added with the heavier death-metal vocals creates a combination of metalcore and death-metal that works in a wild way. An absolute must listen to on the album is track 2’s ‘Slaves Until Death’, just the intro got me a bit rowdy. The heavy beat and the deeper guitar followed by the guttural vocals just mixes well…” – Midlands Metalheads Radio

“Death Rectangle shows a band that certainly knows how to hit the right notes in the musical-technical field.” – Amped Up

“complete with catchy riffs, strong drums, and an easy-to-learn chorus Death Rectangle is sure to be sung at live shows. The band is really finding its sound with this release; their chemistry is evident and will undoubtedly only get better from here.” – Territorio Rock

“Draemora’s new EP Awakening is a 17 minute melodic death metal piece with more twists and turns than your average M. Night Shyamalan movie. This is a band that doesn’t stick to the tradition melo-death sounds, instead looking to incorporate some clean singing, some progressive sections and some experimental sounds… This is an EP that incorporates many different sounds, but doesn’t have any filler… A very unique debut release from Draemora.” – Metal Injection (Review Awakening EP 2020)

“‘Guilt’ features the band’s penchant for mixing their brutal modern metal with glorious rock melodies! Think of a sound that meshes Gojira, Alien Weaponry, Faith No More, and the more recent era of Lamb of God, and you might begin to understand the group!” – Ghost Cult Mag (Review Awakening EP 2020)

“In this playthrough of their song “Guilt” we see Terry from Draemora ripping away with his Fender Telecaster. His tele is loaded with a single EMG 57 and he’s boosting that guy with an Ibanez TS9 going directly into his Mesa. The deadly tone of the 2-channel and a heavy rhythm hand are such a great combo.” – Gear Gods (Review Awakening EP 2020)

New Album “Death Rectangle” Out June 18th

Tour Dates (July/August) w/ Hed PE

Draemora, from Seattle, USA has already been catching ears with their debut EP “Awakening” released in 2020 and are following it up this year with a full-length “Death Rectangle”. Another offering that was written and recorded when the world was upside down, Draemora made use of their time to focus on going in a different direction.

“Death Rectangle” has a lot more depth than the previous work, the band claims that has to do with the growing cohesiveness that comes with being together for over a year at this point. They also mention that this time around they were able to slow down and let everything come together, try out parts in the practice space a lot and make changes based on how they sounded performed to shorten the gap between live and studio performance. They continue to explain:

“With the upcoming release of “Death Rectangle”, we are super excited to see how it is received! A lot of work has been put into it and we truly believe that the efforts will be recognized in the music. As we’ve continued working together, the songwriting quality has greatly improved and we feel this will be a great chance for everyone to see what the next chapter of Draemora has in store for them!”

This album is completely DIY with all the recordings done in Terry Jenkins’ home studio including the mixing and mastering. The band cites that two major influences for this album are Lamb of God’s “Ashes of the Wake” and Whitechapel’s last release “The Valley”.

What’s next for Draemora is live gigs with tour dates in July and August with Hed PE and another full length hopefully for next year. Exciting and rhythmic, they are recommended for fans of Periphery, Architects and Spiritbox.

Seattle’s Draemora Present A Soundtrack For Global Riots With Title Track Off Upcoming “Death Rectangle”

New Album “Death Rectangle” Out June 18th

Tour Dates (July/August) w/ Hed PE
Draemora, hailing from Seattle, USA has a second single coming out in support of their upcoming full-length “Death Rectangle”, and they are inviting core lovers worldwide to indulge themselves with the title track now streaming on YouTube.

From the beginning, Draemora knew this song was a single, complete with catchy riffs, pounding drums, and an easy to pick up chorus that will surely be chanted at live shows. The band is really finding their sound with this release; their chemistry is apparent and undoubtedly only going to improve from here. They explain the track in their own words:

“This song is one of the heaviest songs on the album and somehow is still catchy. It has an infectious rhythm to it that just makes you feel like chugging a Monster and punching the shit out of a bunch of drywall (please resist the urge to hurt your mom’s drywall, Kyle). This one was so obviously a single from the time it was just drums and a guitar part in our demo folder, once it had these lyrics and a bangin’ ass mix it just put a big smile on all our faces. Hope you enjoy it.”

The single, along with the rest of the album was lyrically created so that each and every listener can easily imprint their own lives into them. While they all have deep meaning for the band, there are no specific references, so fans can make them into whatever they want them to be. Overall, the album is dark and heavy sounding, a reflection on the general state of the world during the writing and recording process.

Draemora is comprised of seasoned musicians who wanted to take a new musical path and go the distance into creating a sound that is intricate, catchy, and massive. They are suggested listening for those with an interest in Whitechapel, Periphery, and Architects.

The full album “Death Rectangle” comes out on June 18, 2021.

0 Technical Music Review Premiere: Seattle’s Draemora Shares Progressive Shred With “Victorious” Guitar Playthrough

NEWS RELEASE

Montreal, QC – May 14, 2021

For fans of Wage War, Whitechapel, Periphery, Architects, Spiritbox

Seattle’s Draemora Shares Progressive Shred With “Victorious” Guitar Playthrough

Playthrough Premiere via Technical Music Review

New Album “Death Rectangle” Out June 18th

Tour Dates (July/August) w/ Hed PE

Seattle’s Draemora will be unleashing their new “Death Rectangle” on June 18th. Just this past April, they gave fans a taste of the record with the first single “Victorious” and today, they want to share the progressive shred of that track with its guitar playthrough.

Guitarist Terry Jenkins comments on the writing and playing guitar for song:

“In this playthrough of “Victorious”, and for the actual recording of the guitars, I used the same exact gear that I have been using for a while now.  The guitar itself is only a few months old in this video, but everything else has been a constant for the last year, at least.  

The signal chain is: ESP E-II Horizon Baritone 7 > Line 6 Helix LT (using 4 cable method) > back out of the Helix LT’s FX Loop 1 > Gojira FX Sparkle Drive > ISP Decimator II > Digitec Whammy > Back into the Helix > Back out of the Helix FX Loop into my Rev G Mesa Triple Rec and then back into the Helix so I can use the Mesa’s preamp > Back into the Helix where it is split and I have a noise gate and EQ for what you hear out of the actual cabinet. Since that side uses the power section of the Mesa, too, and the other side has a separate gate and EQ to help match the sound the amp actually makes in a room to me, that runs into an Impulse Response that gets used for our in-ears live and can go to the front of house, as well. What you are hearing in this recording is the side with an Impulse Response.  

I wrote this song a few hours after purchasing this guitar.  It was a little different than my other guitars and I ended up playing it for like 6 hours that night.  In the course of that evening, I decided that what I was plucking around on sounded good, so I decided to record it and by the end of the night I had a full song written.  I noticed right away the Fishman Moderns that were in it had such insane clarity and depth to them that I kept playing this big Major 7 chord that spanned most of the strings and I could hear all the details in there. It was kind of mesmerizing and that became the chorus. I also noticed that once I wanted to do some chugs and other techniques, the pickups allowed me a lot of freedom and that is sort of how the song came together. Pretty funny how a new sound or feel can really inspire you like that.”

The playthrough can be viewed via its premiere on TechnicalMusicReview HERE.

Single stream of “Victorious” can be heard at https://youtu.be/oQEigo-xLHk

Draemora was formed in November 2019 in the Seattle, USA area by Terry Jenkins (vocals/guitar) after his separation from his previous band Odyssian. Seeing it as an opportunity to take a chance and try something different, he wrote a handful of songs with lyrics and demoed them out at his house. These demos attracted the attention of soon-to-be bandmate, ex-Jesus Wears Armani drummer Jared Conelie and ex-Odyssian vocalist Taylor Wood.

After fleshing out the demos with their own personal touches on the songs, Jenkins found local guitar player Max Taylor and set out to record the 5 song EP “Awakening” that was debut during June 2020.

The EP was nothing short of heavy, melodic metal infused with honest and heartfelt lyrics. This combination worked perfectly with the band’s mission to evoke an intense emotional and spiritual experience that brings out the raw emotions that are suppressed all day in normal day-to-day lives.

With a slight pause in the band’s plans due to the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic, Draemora has just completed their follow-up full-length “Death Rectangle” to be released a full year since unleashing their introductory EP “Awakening”.

On this new album, Draemora has truly explored an evolution from their previous release. Musically, the collection of songs are mostly dark and heavy sounding. It wasn’t intentional, but when the band was writing the new record, they were all locked up and lost their jobs due to the Covid-19 pandemic, along with watching their hometown riot during George Floyd protests. The songs all have deep meaning to the band, but they strayed away from using any specific references so that the listener could make it whatever their imagination wants it to be. They think that is the best way to make a release.

The band adds:

“We are really finding our sound on this album and where we all fit together and the two singles on here were so obvious to us because they sounded so good as demos. We could tell instantly that “Death Rectangle” was a single, it’s got a catchy riff, pounding drum parts and a chorus that we hope everyone will join in on when we can eventually play it live. Our planned second single “Victorious” is exactly the same way.  We were going to actually separate it from the album and let it be a song on its own, but at the last minute, we decided it was the perfect way to end the album, because it has that great classic formula in there with a twist to the parts that really puts our stamp on it in a great way.  Our main goal in mind for this release was that we wanted people to enjoy it live, so we made big choruses and really big recognizable parts that made us feel great when we were writing the whole record. It’s 10 songs that we all felt were nothing but bangers, we don’t put filler on anything, if there were only 8 good songs out of 50, then the album would be 8 songs and that’s that. As far as the next thing, we’re already working out new stuff as we’ve finished this so hopefully next year we’ll be back with another full length, that’s the goal at least.”

Draemora is recommended for fans of Wage War, Whitechapel, and Periphery.

Draemora Weaves Progressive Perfection With “Victorious” Off Upcoming Album “Death Rectangle”

Track Premiere via New Noise Magazine

New Album “Death Rectangle” Out June 18th

Tour Dates (July/August) w/ Hed PE

Seattle’s Draemora has a new album on the horizon “Death Rectangle” and leading up to it, they are giving fans a taste with the single “Victorious”. As they have grown over the past year, they have solidified their personal sound and clearly fallen into their groove; an apt blend of core styles that are both powerful and heavy, with catchy chorus crafted for live performances.

Lyrically, Draemora’s music revolves around personal topics and while “Death Rectangle” follows that theme partially, it has a lot of commentary on global events in 2020/21 and sociological ideas. The single “Victorious” was a last-minute addition to the end of the album and the band feels like it is one of the strongest songs of the lot despite it being written in a single evening. All of the parts flow together and the chorus makes this song a great progressive anthem that listeners can scream along with. Draemora explains further:

“We were going to actually separate it from the album and let it be a song on its own, but at the last minute, we decided it was the perfect way to end the album because it has that great classic formula in there with a twist to the parts that really puts our stamp on it in a great way. We want people to enjoy it live, so we made big choruses and really big recognizable parts.”

Towards the end of 2019, Jared Conellie (drums) started working with Terry Paulson (guitar/vocals) on a new project that would become Draemora. They released their debut EP “Awakening” in 2020 and immediately after its release, together with Ricy Bjorklund (bass) and Taylor Wood (vocals) they began writing for “Death Rectangle”, their first full length. They are working on the next full length, so fans won’t have long to wait for more music.

Draemora is recommended for fans of Wage War, Whitechapel, and Periphery.

“Victorious” can be heard via its premiere on New Noise Magazine HERE.

The full album “Death Rectangle” comes out on June 18, 2021.

“Draemora’s new EP Awakening is a 17 minute melodic death metal piece with more twists and turns than your average M. Night Shyamalan movie. This is a band that doesn’t stick to the tradition melo-death sounds, instead looking to incorporate some clean singing, some progressive sections and some experimental sounds… This is an EP that incorporates many different sounds, but doesn’t have any filler… A very unique debut release from Draemora.” – Metal Injection (Review Awakening EP 2020)

“‘Guilt’ features the band’s penchant for mixing their brutal modern metal with glorious rock melodies! Think of a sound that meshes Gojira, Alien Weaponry, Faith No More, and the more recent era of Lamb of God, and you might begin to understand the group!” – Ghost Cult Mag (Review Awakening EP 2020)

“In this playthrough of their song “Guilt” we see Terry from Draemora ripping away with his Fender Telecaster. His tele is loaded with a single EMG 57 and he’s boosting that guy with an Ibanez TS9 going directly into his Mesa. The deadly tone of the 2-channel and a heavy rhythm hand are such a great combo.” – Gear Gods (Review Awakening EP 2020)

“A haunting, eerie melody opens “Home” with the an Allegaeon esq melodic moment before some DJent infused riffage takes hold and Wood delivers the kind of unclean vocals that leave you with 3rd degree burns on the inside of your throat. Jenkins interjects with a pair of clean sung verses over some almost Grungy Metalcore and you have a track with perhaps a trio of different styles in a single offering that works because of the cognitive tissue of the narrative.” – Metal Noise (Review Awakening EP 2020)

0 Canada’s Cavedweller Come At You With The Blistering Brutality Of “Slow Death”, Music Video Premiere via TheCirclePit

  • February 6, 2021

  • · Cavedweller · Music News

NEWS RELEASE

Montreal, QC – February 5, 2021

For fans of Every Time I Die, Norma Jean, The Chariot, Chelsea Grin, Whitechapel, Traitors

Canada’s Cavedweller Come At You With The Blistering Brutality Of “Slow Death”

Music Video Premiere via TheCirclePit

“Slow Death” is anything but slow; it’s a manic whirlwind of deathcore, complete with a fresh breath of breakdowns, enticing both old and new fans who will feel like they are discovering a new sound. If you took a racing scene from a Nicholas Cage movie and combined it with that scene from The Shining where Jack Nicholson is breaking down that door with an axe, that would be this new track from Fredericton’s Cavedweller.

The band’s EP “Primal” came out in 2020 and this new stand-alone single is devised to whet fans palate before an expected 2021 full-length release.

Cavedweller comments on the song:

““Slow Death” is a song our drummer originally pitched to us. Most of the structure was there, so we just played around with it a little bit, worked out some kinks, played around with time signatures for a little bit, and eventually ended up with the finished product. Lyrically, the song is about being trapped in a cycle of life, living the same day by day routine and schedule until death.”

Looking to leave an impression with this single, Cavedweller chose this fast, heavy hitter to be their first video. It’s abrasive, in your face and the chaos doesn’t relent for a second.

For this track, drummer Sam Brown came up with the core groove initially, and each of the members threw their own spices into it. Pulling inspiration from the heavy side of the spectrum, proggy rhythmically driven influences, and the core subgenre, the result is quick and dirty, high energy good times, and a raw approach to metal.

Groovy and sporadic with a healthy dose of breakdowns, Cavedweller is recommended for fans of Every Time I Die, Norma Jean, and The Chariot.

The video for “Slow Death” can be watched via its premiere on TheCirclePit HERE.

Stream and download available on the following digital platforms:
Cavedweller506.bandcamp.com, Spotify.

About:

Cavedweller is four homies from the small town of Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada that play groovy riffs, and crushing breakdowns.

Cavedweller is Cujo Bonvie (vocals), Alex Sturgeon (bass), Sam Brown (drums), and Brad Kenny (guitar), four guys who have known each other from the local scene for years. Brown and Sturgeon used to play together in local act Blueprints, and Bonvie was a regular attendee to local shows, and played in a number of local bands, including Dumpster Mummy, Panda Bee Catastrophe, and The Mind Unleashed. Once the four of them started jamming, the chemistry was evident and the rest is history.

In 2019, the band recorded their demo “Free-Sushi” which was followed up in 2020 with the EP “Primal”. The EP was mixed and mastered themselves; guitars were recorded in Sturges room, drums at a friend’s place, and mastered at Kenny’s place. During the recording process at Sturges, a lightsaber battle broke out between Sturge and Kenny to determine whose masters would be the ones released. It was a long and intense battle, but Kenny was ultimately the victor.

There is a wide range of influences coursing through the blood of the band including hardcore, punk, deathcore, and a little bit of prog-metal, and the final result is best suited for fans of Chelsea Grin, Whitechapel, and Traitors.

Cavedweller has played with several bands in their short history and expects to have a full length out by the end of 2021.

Don’t be shy, come show us what you’ve got in the pit!

Unleashing their earth-shattering album “Seismic” this past November, Vancouver’s Without Mercy has a new music video for their track “I Break The Chain” via its premiere on Decibel Magazine HERE.

“With this track, we pose the question of morality and becoming docile to the everyday routine. The chain that connects us and bounds us to a routine monotonous existence. The ignoring of atrocities just to keep the assembly line moving, ‘Don’t rock the boat’ mentality. What does it take to break from that chain and what would it look like?” adds the band.

Without Mercy’s latest behemoth features nine assaulting grooving death metal tracks that even include special guests Jeff Loomis (Arch Enemy) on opening track “Thunderbird” and Chris Broderick (Act of Defiance) on “Disinfect The Soul”.

Distributed by Bloodblast Distribution (powered by Nuclear Blast), “Seismic” follows the band’s 2016 EP “Moucchido”. The vast majority of the material for “Seismic” was written and rewritten multiple times over the past four years. Honed and tightened over tours and live performances, Without Mercy were unwilling to place “filler” to enhance anything. They came at this album with the best of everything they had after their inspirations were doing the same. The band shares their thoughts on the full length:

“We are beyond stoked to have our new album “Seismic” see the light of day. This album represents 4 years of solid work ethic and unwillingness to compromise even in the slightest. We’re trying to give the listeners and fans of the band a chance to hear what tenacity can sound like. Lyrics that are an honest take on issues, riffs that have been refined over time, drum parts, and rhythms that are not standard or washed out. Even the mixing team behind it has a resume as long as your arm. We pushed ourselves in every field of this record and now that it’s here, we can relive those moments with all of you.”

For fans of Cattle Decapitation, Pantera, Meshuggah, and Decapitated, “Seismic” is available on all digital platforms HERE.

“Without Mercy’s New Album Is A Whirlwind of Sonic Punishment” – The Pit

“Right from the start (Uprooted), Without Mercy set the bar high for their extremity, aiming for something far more chaotic. The opening is a mix between the pure grind-death akin to that of Cattle Decapitation, and the math metal sound of Protest the Hero.”- Metal Injection

“pay witness (I Break The Chain) to their thrashy death metal a la Cattle Decapitation, Meshuggah and Decapitated and watch as they adorn the blast beats and breakdowns with beer guts and brogues.” – Decibel Magazine

“Overall, two elements really struck me here…one was the level of intensity, and the other the level of musicianship from the band. How they can remain unsigned is a mystery to me. They play with such a tight synergy that it’s almost like they can finish each other’s sentences before they even open their mouth.” – Metal Temple

“While the heavy metal name generator might have had something to do with what this meaty metal unit called themselves, you can’t say it doesn’t fit. Without Mercy are pretty damn *ahem* merciless and to cap that off, their new album is so aptly titled. Seismic…a relentless powerhouse that is akin to tectonic plates smashing into each other. There is no fucking mercy and it’s fucking glorious. Excuse the swearing but that’s how this album makes you feel. It makes you feel like a beast. It makes you feel capable of taking on the world. It’s chunky, it’s thick, it’s chokingly devastating and undoubtedly one to be remembered.” – Games, Brrraaains & A Head-Banging Life

“A merciless Vancouver-based Death and Thrash Metal unity is ready to strike us all once again with their newest opus, representing four years of solid work ethic and unwillingness to compromise even in the slightest.” – The Headbanging Moose

“Without Mercy’s music is made for a wide audience. Seismic will please as much to pure violence lovers, as a crowd that fight following the catchy groove.” – Acta Infernalis

Unleashing their beast of an album “Seismic” on November 20th, Without Mercy assaulted fans with their latest behemoth of nine assaulting grooving death metal tracks that even include special guests Jeff Loomis (Arch Enemy) on opening track “Thunderbird” and Chris Broderick (Act of Defiance) on “Disinfect The Soul”. Both showcase their undeniable shred talents for each guest solo and today, Without Mercy is sharing the playthrough clip for Broderick‘s contribution.

Without Mercy guitarist, DJ Temple adds:

“Imagine looking up to a guitarist for years and one day they answer a guitar question in a blog for you. Then next they email you and you guys become friends. Now imagine that guitarist loves your new record and plays a guest solo on it. That’s the path that this took and went down and I’m still in shock that it happened. Broderick gave a shit and really took his time to put together something impressive and tasteful all At the same time. His approach to guitar is so Intellectual and it just represents an unreal amount of talent and charisma. He brought this song to another level.”

“The thrash-stomp modes on “Worthless” ring like a head-on collision between DECAPITATED and BIOHAZARD with a dash of power metal thrown into the solo section. Alex Friis wrings his throat to huge extremes, hopefully leaving tissue intact as he hits agonizing squeals while throwing indictments against former band members — guess on your own who that might entail. DJ Temple’s guitar work on “Worthless” is terrific..” (Mouchido EP 2016) – Blabbermouth

“Vancouver’s Without Mercy is a prime example of how putting in a little bit of elbow grease can result in advantageous outcomes. The quartet play their brand of melodic, groove-laden death metal independently, but refuse to remain held back by a lack in the promotional and money machine backing departments. Over the course of a decade or so, the band has experienced the same highs and lows as most others, but their successes – which include a small handful of recordings, a bigger handful of tours, and appearances in video games – have been felt at a deeper clip because they’ve essentially managed everything themselves.”  (Mouchido EP 2016) – Decibel Magazine

“In a word, the music rips. And it also thunders, and punches so fast and hard that it’s like a jackhammer-sized nail gun ramming bolts into concrete at high speed while the operator howls and shrieks for all he’s worth, segmented by a start-stop breakdown that will give your skull a good rattling and lit up by swarming guitar flurries that are as fiery as the torches in the video (Burn).” (Mouchido EP 2016) – No Clean Singing

” the band live up to their name with each song on this 4 track EP going for straight for the throat; merciless aural violence and tight, technical proficiency melded with some serious might!” (Mouchido EP 2016) – Worship Metal

“Mouichido might only be a brief four songs and nineteen minutes long but, by the end of it, the Canadian death metal wrecking machine have left you in no doubt as to what they’re about.” (Mouchido EP 2016) – PureGrainAudio

“Right from the beginning you feel the weight and the immensity of Mouichido and one listen just doesn’t do it justice. This is a re-release of previously recorded material with a new vocalist and even so, Without Mercy comes out swinging again and knocks it clear out of the park.” (Mouchido EP 2016) – Cadaver Garden  

“possibly the most savage song to ascend from the depths of the west in a good long while.” – Canadian Beats
