Convulsions / Civilian Thrower (2025)

If you dig old school grind I really recommend you this split. Convulsiosn are from Spain and their grind is between old school and powerviolence, but with vocals more guttural than is usual for PV. Civilian Thrower are from France (with the singer of Whoresnation and members from Hordur, Lovgun and Morbid Scum) and this time their old school grind is going more on the death metal side than it used to be.

Good stuff!

Vulvodynia - Entabeni (2024)

Blending every shades of modern death metal, from slam to technical and progressive death metal isn't an easy task, but Vulvodynia are more and more successful at achieving it, as you can hear on their new album Entabeni (with one of their guitarist replacing the former singer, and African mythology replacing alien entities as lyrical inspiration, and released by Unique Leader Records). And they manage to do this mix while keeping their own specific sound (especially the guitar playing that is very special). Perfect for anyone enjoying both the impact and groove of slamming brutal death and the subtleties of tech/ prog death metal. Highly recommended!
