about

Dawn of Man is a Death Doom band and Insect Corpse is Scott Stearns solo band with a guest appearance from Fistula's Corey Bing.

Review by Nihilistic Holocaust Records:
Split tape. 2022. THE BUTCHER SHED Recs.
You like to vomit?
You enjoy vomiting in the cavern?
You really enjoy voluptuously vomiting in the cavern while painting obscure animals on the cold walls?
Then this cassette might suit your regurgitating pleasures.

The first band, DAWN OF MAN, plays obscure underground death metal in a spirit close to the 90's or some obscure (unmodern) early 00's demos. There's a taste of ooold IMMOLATION and perhaps BEYOND FEAR (Uk), in a not so technical manner though, then comes in more doom & heaviness, you might think about SORROW (The 90's band). There's also a little fukked touch that might remember a bit of INFESTER (Usa), or perhaps very early SAD EX. Some parts have a little (old) sludge feel, even if it's not really the same kind of riffing, and some ooold BRUJERA demo tracks also came to mind for some reason ("Vibrating" frequencies? ahah).
This is not the most perfect recording, somewhere it's closer to 90's rehearsals than the current Eps you might be used to, it has a somewhat "live" feel, but it's not a problem for my hears: I enjoy the atmosphere and the style they choose. Quite cool stuff for fans of obscure underground death metal!

The second band INSECT CORPSE is different, much more located in the doomy world, even if they keep a quite strong underground flair.
To be a bit more precise, the music sounds like some kind of suffocating doom death with quite tortured screamed vocals. This is quite slow, sinister, and somewhat heavy on the belly. I wouldn't say the content is really repetitive, but I guess they like to "insist" on some quite doomy riffs. This band isn't bad, but to be quite regurgitatingly honest, I preferred DAWN OF MAN.

This tape sounds like a cool release, at the condition you dig metal with an underground attitude, and recorded without filters/ digital manipulation/ aural surgery... This is somewhat the way the bands sound in their rehearsal rooms, but with a quite cool sound recording (As opposed to the 80's/ 90's boombox captures which often ended quite shitty and all distorted...).
