Brutal, technical black/death metal from Belarus.

Review from Tartarean Desire:
After having spent some time developing their skills in melodic death metal the Belarus based band Asguard have now delved deep into symphonic black metal with their second album "Black Fire Land". Unlike many other Eastern European bands who have chosen to walk a more primitive and "true" path, their music is well produced and contains plenty of keyboards and melodies in the vein of early Emperor and Old Man's Child. Once in a while you can also trace some minor Cradle Of Filth tendencies but they are rather few and rare. The album begins with a very nice intro followed by some fast, melodic and intense riffing. Even though this is more or less a low budget recording compared to modern standards Asguard have been careful to see to that everything can be heard in the music. Every instrument is in its right place and the melodies have been lifted to the front. Asguard may be able to compete with the leading bands in their genre in due time but right now there is in particular one thing missing to take them to the top as the vocals lack in both power and performance. It is only in "War", an old track from their 1997 demo "In The Darkness Of The Night", that the vocals sound really good. They could progress in the song writing process as well but the material presented on this album is still stronger than average. The melodic opener, the melodic death metal riffing meets Cradle Of Filth symphonies in "Eternal Dream", the very fast and powerful keyboard / guitar combination in "Bloody Hate..." and the riff-happy "War" are the highlights from this album. Something worth mentioning is also the inclusion of their Manowar cover "Metal Warriors" which however doesn't mean much to me as it is, even in its original version, a boring and far from impressive song. Recommended to fans of melodic black and death metal.

Second full length of this technical black/gothic/death metal band from Belarus!

Review from Dark Symphonies:
COLD, unapologetic Black Metal with symphonic undertones. This is Asguard's true debut, but is only now being released worldwide with bonus tracks, new cover art and completely remastered. The original release was only available on cassette and only in Belarus / Russia. It is cold and depressing there and that's the very reason why this band is comprised of incredibly talented young musicians that bang the hell out of their instruments. Vicious pummeling and Iron Maiden-esque riffs define this debut metal masterpiece. Think primitive Emperor or Old Mans Child, but with more grit and more guitars, bass and drums. Asguard are poised to run with extreme metal's very elite.

Black/Death Metal for fans of Dimmu Borgir, Vader and Behemoth.

Not completely black metal, but not exactly death metal either (nor is it really blackened death, but it's close), "In the Name of Satan" by Massachusetts' BABY STAB HORROR is a tight, punishing, and groovy sophomore effort. Besides, with a name like BABY STAB HORROR and a title like "In the Name of Satan" you probably already figured out that the style isn't Christian metalcore and the lyrics are about a thousand miles south of a MILEY CYRUS album.
Bands such as BEHEMOTH, VADER, and DIMMU BORGIR get thrown around by label folks as "for fans of" reference points, which is not as far off as it may seem after time spent with "In the Name of Satan". It basically boils down to a thick, riff-based death/thrash approach (ala VADER and BEHEMOTH) with sections that fuse the evil with the majestic — emphasized by some electronic elements — in a decidedly blackened sort of way (ala DIMMU BORGIR). Those are general comparisons though, as BABY STAB HORROR is a relatively unique entity, even if the influences are easily identified.
What really makes "In the Name of Satan" go is a kind of industrial-metal propulsion not unlike that heard on PLAGUE BRINGER's "Life Songs in a Land of Death", except that the grind elements aren't there. It is more in the way the guitar lines are wrapped tightly around the drum blasting. The raspy (and decipherable) vocals — periodically offset with death growls, some damn creepy spoken word bits (e.g. "Exhibit A [The Letter to the Parents]"), and even the occasional backing shout — are a big part of the album's black metal sounds. More importantly, the rapid fire delivery of the raspy singing and the growls are perfectly patterned and enunciated, a difficult feat, considering the predominantly quick pacing. The compact (not compressed) sound has a real kick to it and the nefarious aura is pervasive as well.
The combination of those hard-driving, hell-on-wheels rhythms with the unit's smart use of memorable riffs that emphasize head-bang worthiness over technicality and a knack for penning some pretty good melodies (check out "Annihilation Has Come" and "Vitriolic Message of Hate") make "In the Name of Satan" a robust affair. It is one of those albums that will probably go unnoticed by far too many people. Those lucky enough to stumble upon it may be pleasantly surprised. (Blabbermouth)

Review from Diabolical Conquest:
Begrime Exemious is a ghastly Canadian horde that has only been around since 2005 but has released a demo, the excellent Set Ablaze The Kingdom Of Abraham EP and now their full-length debut, Impending Funeral Of Man. The former now merely a battle cry for the full on assault of the more diverse and fully realized full-length effort. Begrime Exemious seems poised to make a major impression with this release as it continues both the success of Canadian extreme metal bands and the upstart Dark Descent Records - the label having released the excellent Rituals of the Grotesque demo by Burial Invocation earlier this year.
Begrime Exemious combines the best aspects of Demilich, Grand Belial's Key and even a little Argholsent to form their bulking brand of metal. The reason I think those bands are particularly apt as comparisons is because not only do they fit in terms of style and genre, but like those bands, Begrime Exemious is a unique, riff-first type of band. I am not sure about you, but when I think metal, my first thought is always the riffs - a surprisingly significant flaw of a lot of bands these days. But Begrime Exemious has riffs in abundance and a style that carefully balances subtle melody with hefty brutality and really sets them apart from a lot of other metal practitioners.
The primary attack of the band is the way they seamlessly shift from charging, often times bouncy rhythms (think Argholsent and Grand Belial's Key) to a heavier, sometimes jerky delivery (think Demilich). The other thing that really separates the band from their death metal peers is how they effectively incorporate other key metal elements with this attack. The band has a skillful way of allowing the bluesy, bounce of "Ancient Crypts Asunder" to slam straightaway into its doom-y follow-up passage or have the eerie, arpeggiated atmosphere of "Sanctum Sanctorum" serve as the backdrop to its charging rhythms. Also, like a lot of the Canadian extreme metal bands, Begrime Exemious is a little chaotic in their delivery. This chaos and a highly varied drum performance makes the material here incredibly urgent with regards to how the songs twist and dip as the band strings together all of their riffs. Throw in some severely catchy riffs (see "Filthy Sodomite Of Christ" and highlight "Psalmody Of Sacrificial Blaze") and the whole album will quickly bury its rusty barbed and tetanus-infected hooks into your cerebrum.
The most significant flaw on the album is the production. It carries enough weight to make the material here hit sufficiently hard, but it also gets really mushy in spots where the rigidity of what the band is playing is lost. My biggest gripe has to do with the production on the drums, which is really a damn shame because the performance is excellent, but the toms sound like shit and almost disappear in places while the snare has that "metallic" sound that may turn some of you off. The production overall is by no means horrible or even terribly bothersome, and I hope the actual CD sounds better than the MP3s I currently have, but I think the production is not as crisp and as ballsy as it should have been and robs the material enough to mention it here.
Impending Funeral Of Man is exactly how I want a metal album to be and is precisely what I needed over the last few weeks. I had some time to reflect on things over that time, and when I really look back at all the albums I have reviewed, it amazed me how so many bands are so eager to send over new band photos, paragraphs of promotional hyperbole, logo-filled stickers, patches and other merchandise, which I realize is all necessary to promote an album properly, yet too many of those bands fail at what really sells an album: the riffs. Well, there are no gimmicks, distractions or useless info here. Impending Funeral Of Man takes six strings, a pick and cloaks the results in grimy death.

Long awaited second album of this Spanish great Black/Death Metal band!! 10 Tracks of true and raw Black/Death in the vein of bands like Abigor or Dissection!! Mastered by Andy Laroque!

Biography:
Between the Frost was created at the end of 1993, as a powerful band of melodic Black-Death metal. JM (guitars), who came from another Black Metal band, and Asier (drums), began this project, that was something that they have in their minds for a long time. Then, C. de Castellarnau joined the band as second guitar player, and their began to rehearsal and the first songs were written. Not to much later, Román, brother of JM, and coming from a Death Metal band, joined the band also, and put voice to the songs.

In August 1996, after a lot of rehearsals and been totally satisfied with the songs, 5 of them were recorded in a home studio, as a try to get the attention of the labels. That became the very first demo of the band. Not satisfied with the result, in January 1997 re-recorded the demo, this time in a professional recording studio, and again, C. de Castellarnau recorded the bass lines. After that, the band asked to David Valdés to join the band as a session bass player for live performances. This second recording made that Abstract Emotions and the band began to talk, and the label edited the band..s debut album “Instinc of Surliness” redorded in 1997, and edited in the summer of 1998.

After that, Alberto joined the band as the replacement of David Valdés. After several concerts, C. de Castellarnau left the band because of a dissapointments in music interests, and David Valdés re-joined the band as a provisional replacement.

They began to play live with this formation, but a few shows later, David Valdés took the decision to dedicate all of his time to his own project, and left the band. At this time, BTF began to work in new songs, having in mind the coming of the second album. Unfortunatelly, Abstract Emotions dissappeared as a record label, and the band began to search again a new label.

In June 2002, David M. joined the band, giving a thread of hope in the future of BTF, and the band get prepared for the new recording and the upcoming concerts.

Two years later, in 2004, the band finishes the recording of the new album, that has been delayed a long time due a lot of problems. Finally, at the beginings of 2005 Andy LaRocque, King Diamond..s guitarist, mastered the album at LosAngered Studios (Sweden), being all prepared for the publishing of “Realms of Desolation”.

The band began the hard work to find a new record label, and after a couple of concerts, David M. left the band due a personal reasons, becoming a near helping hand in promotion, production and a good friend.

After some rehearsals with different guitarists the band plays two shows with a session member at the guitar. The band take the decision to find an official member that fills the philosophy of Between The Frost, and in August 2006, Iosue (ex-member of Argar, a Black Metal band from Barcelona) becames a part of the band.

After a very long searching, and with the help of Dave Rotten (Avulsed, Xtreem Music), the band finally find a new record label, Grotesque Music, who will publish the next two albums of Between The Frost. So, a new hope of future is open for the band.
