I can't imagine Indonesia being a festering hotbed of oldschool thrash/speed metal worship, but
Spellforger's newest output in
Upholders of Evil holds up against the scrupulous rhetoric of those of us that are defiantly trying to keep the underground lit. Production is spot on, harkening back to the days of
Razor,
Sacrifice,
Exciter,
Sodom and those that just wanted to go fast and hard with a firm grip on the black metal influences of yore a la
Hellhammer,
Tormentor and
Possessed. Nailed it. Germany's
Vulture has done a good job at bringing those antediluvian sounds back to us, albeit with a lot more kitschiness driving their overall sound,
Spellforger chooses a more primitive and straight for the jugular assault with its production. Show these guys some love and support on their Bandcamp page.
