Catacomb - In the Maze of Kadath (FULL EP)

[@nespith]

It never ceases to amaze me that I can still find old school death metal albums I haven't heard before after 20 years of listening to death metal now.

[@sopsilist2030]

nespith so many great underrated bands

[@Moodster93]

idk if that will ever cease. Joys of music

[@smazogzsmazlabs3436]

32 years for me and totally adore metal, both old and new - so many excellent bands I never heard of as back in them days everyone was on cassettes with the INTERNET NOT CREATED - FUCKING HELL - try to imagine that now lol...! Death, Possessed, Napalm Death, Lawnmower Deth and of course Venom all branded me a Satanist at age of 16 pmsl, nothing has much has changed except for knowledge that devil is the light; lucifer is the light that shines bright in the darkest voids of our mind and indeed the external cosmos's mind. Peace and 666 to all :):):)

Golden era od death metal 80s-90s. Amazing sound and sick vocals. Cthulhu fhtagn!

[@ForcesOfOdin]

Such an awesome album cover, perhaps the best image I've seen of Cthulu.

[@theNinjastar27]

The drumming is so good, never gets too excessive and the timing is excellent

[@MrKornea]

I Was a friend of "Mike", rhythm guitarist... Remember a rehearsal in the basement of the drummer during summer 1992 (south of france powaaaa ;-) !!!)... I bought a demo (tape) at this occasion...

[@aliensdidit8452]

The guitar playing is almost neoclassical

[@camiloth9953]

Yes, in fact it plays a lot with the solos and the guitar sweeps.

[@dante666jt]

[@SuperSpacebum]

This is one of the greatest collection of death metal songs I have ever heard. Quite a big claim for such an obscure and forgotten band. I would have loved to hear a full length from these guys. I'm sure it would have ranked among the all-time greats. The atmosphere created here is just perfect. True Death Metal!

[@langousteuh7344]

Do you know Timeghoul ? Same kind of old and creepy DM

[@SuperSpacebum]

Yup. I love Timeghoul. The lyrics to Occurance on Mimas are the most terrifying lyrics ever. Far more frightening than the standard war, disease, satan, criminals, and what have you.

[@Carefaceeeee]

The best is always unknown or forgotten ;)

[@duckman8896]

✊

[@alpinoterran]

This record is not even that death metal. It has so much melodic and progressive acessories to their music (which is fine by itself) that it classifies as "True" death metal only for some portions of it's length. Also, @Eternal Slumber Most great extreme metal is know or becomes known over time. Gorement and Timeghoul are good examples of great bands that took people long enough to find out about but now everyone knows them. CAUSE THEY'RE FUCKING GOOD. People like listening and talking about good music so it get's known, basic stuff, really .

[@justsomedudeyouknow8372]

This ep was their first and was re-released in 2015. French band. Started in 1990, broke up 2003. Got back together 2019.

[@The-Endungeoned]

Probably the most underrated release in the universe.

[@victhorne1534]

Hallucinated Mountains is one of the gnarliest death metal tracks I've ever heard.

[@Haxprocess]

Every track here is one of the gnarliest death metal tracks I've ever heard

[@rainbowthrustars]

I bought this EP back in the days based on the cool cover alone, and oh boy I was happy to hear the two songs on here. Great EP. The record single only had the two first songs, and the cassette had all of these mentioned here.

[@incognito3862]

Man, this is such a fucking raw and powerful recording. Easily one of the darkest and most malevolent sounding of all-time.

[@camiloth9953]

Personally, I like death metal much more brutal and pure, but here it amazes me that the vocalist uses a growl as distinctive as if it were the furious monster coming out of a cave, what a great band, excellent work.

[@呼吸-e9b]

Melodic death metal for people that dislike melodic death metal

[@呼吸-e9b]

Their main focus is the structure of melodies and the songs feel like being driven by the melodies and the melodical aspect themselves, rather than typical death metal led by harshness and heaviness of groovy riffs; which are still melodic in their own field, but far from being anywhere close to cheesy/generic pop melodic death metal

[@poludisperzija]

This is a pure joy to listen to.

[@toothsnaggleer]

Death metal craftsmanship from some Lovecraftian fanatics. Enter the Castle of Great Entities.

[@Diablo-gq7ro]

Glad to find a non-tryhard vocalist that lets the instruments play their part. Also the growls are well made, they fit with the music atmosphere. They don't stand out nor scream constantly. Perfectly balanced.

[@ericv7720]
