Eisenberg (liebevoll „Iron Hill“ genannt) – die Brutstätte der Death Metal-Talente von Deserted Fear. Diese jungen Bastarde, die den Altvorderen des Oldschool Death Metal mit wehenden Flaggen Bombenhagel aus jugendlichem Eifer nachgeschmissen haben. Mit ihren ungezähmten, vor Groove- Gewalt scheppernden Death Metal-Hymnen haben sie 2012 mit dem Debüt „My Empire“ Staubwolken aus den konventionellen Klangflächen des Genres geschüttelt.
Das Echo war überwältigend. Rock Hard sprach von „Riffmassakern“, für metal.de war es „das Death- Metal-Highlight 2012“ und powermetal.de sah voraus, dass Deserted Fear „sich an die Spitze der europäischen Todesblei-Szene […] katapultieren“ würden….
Neues Album “ DROWNED BY HUMANITY“ VÖ 08.02.19
HIEROPHANT, formed in 2010, exponents for the Italian extreme music. After their first album, S/T, they never stopped playing all over Europe. In 2013 the band signed with one of the most important american labels that have marked the history of hardcore/punk, Bridge Nine Records and released their first album with them called ‘Great Mother: Holy Monster’, taking a step toward more extreme sonority.
HIEROPHANT’s new album ‚Mass Grave‘ is as bleak and ugly as the title that adorns it. A dark and violent exercise in total extremity at the crossroads where hardcore, grindcore and death metal collide, ‚Mass Grave‘ is the sound of a dystopic society marching to its end. Recorded at The Pit (NAILS, XIBALBA, TWITCHING TONGUES, DISGRACE ) by Taylor Young (NAILS), and featuring stunning artwork from Paolo Girardi (POWER TRIP, BLACK BREATH, INQUISITION), ‚Mass Grave‘ is nothing short of total brutality.
