Not a whole lot to say about them except they sound like Deeds of Flesh played at 1.5x SPEED with bits of weirder atonal stuff. Brutal death at SPEEDS that PUSH THE LIMIT of mammalian nerve conduction VELOCITY. No demyelination here folks.
And man do these guys have some bomb ass lyrics. They read like a Thelemic self help book:
"Transformed into a higher spiritual Being
Capable of mastering the unbalanced forces of the lower worlds
Chosen to attain personal spiritual guidance...
By the only reliable source in the universe... Myself!"
From: "Transfiguration of the Devotee (Reborn Within the Womb of Babylon)"
Capable of mastering the unbalanced forces of the lower worlds
Chosen to attain personal spiritual guidance...
By the only reliable source in the universe... Myself!"
"I AM AN UNIQUE SOUL IN THE INFINITE SPACE!
I AM IN ALL AND... ALL IN ME!
I AM A GOD!, I AM... OMNIPOTENT!
I AM THE ALL!, I AM THE NONE!
I AM THE ONE!!!"
From: "Arrival of a New Aeon (New Equinox of the Gods)"
I AM IN ALL AND... ALL IN ME!
I AM A GOD!, I AM... OMNIPOTENT!
I AM THE ALL!, I AM THE NONE!
I AM THE ONE!!!"
"AKOLASIA!
AKRASIA!
EPIKRANTHEN!
EAEIDELOS!"
From "Ascension to Immortality (Apotheosis of Freedom)"
AKRASIA!
EPIKRANTHEN!
EAEIDELOS!"
(by the way the all caps are theirs, not mine)
I fucking scream this shit into the mirror to get pumped up for job interviews. These guys are the Phil Lynott of brutal death, though it can get a little too "Sedona-ish" for me but man with music like this I forgive them.
Awakening of the Rebel (2006)
Enjoy:
This is pretty fast.
ReplyDeleteThe Thelemic references here are tits, but you missed the most important fact about this album: it contains a song called "Magnificent Uranus Power"
My favorite title is "Vatican Bombardment" off of Chaotic Matrix
ReplyDeletei've always wondered why i heard so little about these guys. they apparently, partially at least, moved to nyc from columbia about three years ago. i've been scouring the satanic hispanic queens scene since then in search of them but nobody seems to have a clue. they need to get to show playing...
ReplyDeletehaha, i also just noticed that their ep from 2001 contains a song titled "Outside Dwellers (New Hyper Brutally Improved version)". can't argue with hyper brutal progress!
ReplyDeleteok, well the more you know, eh?
ReplyDeletetake from the facebook page from a couple days ago:
"INTERNAL SUFFERING is back!!
We are very glad to let friends and fans know that INTERNAL SUFFERING is reformed and back in the scene!! Yes, we've been working hard since some time ago but didn't want to make an official statement until everything was 100% confirmed as it is now!!. Needless to say, INTERNAL SUFFERING will remain LOYAL to their fast, chaotic, technical style while bringing their distinctive brand of brutal death metal to the masses for many more years to come. Last but not least, we want to thank all our fans and friends for bearing with us during this hiatus, if it wasn't for your support, we wouldn't still go strong after 15 years of existence!. Cheers to you all and c ya on tour soon!"
We'll see what that means. I suspect awesome.
Sounds like brutal progress to me.
