Description
Debut album from this death metal band from Zeeland, Holland. Formed in 1989 and within two months of existence these four death metal enthusiasts recorded a death metal demo by the name ‘Tangled In Gore’ featuring one of the most low-pitched and cavernous voices ever heard in death metal. A Dutch independent label, Foundation 2000, signed them for one album. Before recording Mindloss they first released another demo in 1990 under the name ‘Horrors In A Retarded Mind’, which also received positive feedback. Colin Richardson was the producer of the debut album ‘Mindloss’. The album is complete with raging deluges of drumming, riff-o-rama, and gutteral noises that pass for vocals, ‘Mindloss’ is a very solid death metal release that is probably in every hardcore death metal fans collection already, but won't do much to appeal to those outside the genre. Gorefest is better than most death bands, however, since they don't tend to make sudden time changes and have more a flow to their songs than, say, Deicide or any of the other legions of American death metal bands. 2009 re-release on double 180g vinyl with Track listing: 1.
