Cathexis: Demo cassette
Our take: 4-song demo of occult metal-punk from this one-person project based in New York, sort of like if first-album-era Bathory had been infected with the G.I.S.M. virus. The music is a little more toward the Bathory side with straightforward metal riffing and primitive pounding on the drums, but there’s definitely one foot in G.I.S.M.’s M.A.N. LP aesthetically, with a similarly cold and hollow sound and a penchant for echo effects on demonic vocals. There’s also an introverted quality to this that reminds me of Norwegian black metal… there are no fun parts, no rocking out, just cold grimness in a studiously primitive package.
