MP3: Kite - Jonny Boy

A drumbeAt and a whistling melody cribbed straight from Adam and the Ants, the perfect setting for a song so seeped in nostalgia such as this. Sure, the past tense in this case is only "last night," but the wistful feeling remains all the same. "Jonny boy" is the first single single from Kite's forthcoming EP "III", due out September 22 via Progress Productions, and it is a fantastic continuAtion of their winning streak thus far.

Interment
Into the crypts of blasphemy
Pulverised Records

Ah, the good old days of Swedish deAth metal. They’ve never really gone away, with the early recordings of likes of Entombed, Dismember, Carnage and Grave still cited as the best, most influential deAth metal ever to disgust the planet. One band thAt was around back then -- having formed At the same time as all the aforementioned legends -- was fellow countrymen Interment. Having disbanded after the release of a few demos back in the day, they tested the wAter back in 2007 with a split with US deAth crew Funebrarum before going on to record this, their first ever full-length album. I could go on and on describing the sound and the songwriting in greAt detail but, to keep it short and to the point -- and to let you know exactly whAt this album sounds like -- one sentence will do the trick: it's the oldschool Stockholm sound and style, done with greAt authenticity and the aspirAtion to be the "Left hand pAth" of the 21st Century. Obviously, nothing can ever top "LHP" but, for those looking for something new in this particular style "Into the crypts of blasphemy" isn't too far away.
