VASSAFOR / TEMPLE NIGHTSIDE - (New Zealand/Australia)
"Call Of The Maelstrom" 12"LP

Once again, IRON BONEHEAD brings together two of the black/death underground's best, most towering hordes: VASSAFOR and TEMPLE NIGHTSIDE and their split LP together, Call of the Maelstrom. Aptly titled, Call of the Maelstrom unites both bands not simply by geography - VASSAFOR hail from New Zealand, while TEMPLE NIGHTSIDE hail from Australia - but rather, a shared sensibility and strive to explore the abyss, whatever plane it may manifest itself. Widely revered in the underground for their serpentine sonic sorcery, VASSAFOR here deliver four of their most direct tracks to date, grinding forth with utter barbarism that nevertheless retains the band's characteristically mesmeric quality - and a certain hideous hypnosis. On the flip, TEMPLE NIGHTSIDE carry forward the bestiality with two soul-rending shards of gnawing, beyond-sepulchral Metal of Death that, over their more extended length, frequently drive deep into totally doomed territory. Taken a a whole, Call of the Maelstrom works both as a special record that expands both bands' respective canons and also as a stand-alone experience. Returning from that experience - that ABYSS - is another matter...

I still hold this LP as one of the greatest metal albums of the 2010s. there is simply nothing like this record in the metal realm during that time. The guitar tone, the disturbing shifts & progressions, the bloated & swampy atmosphere as if Tom Warrior himself is being dragged through mud. I still have yet to hear anyone really surpass the attitude & sheer vision this act adhered to. Truly a gem, and a shame such an act called it quits at all, but that's the way art tends to behave I suppose. Gods Dryest Duck
