Background
Norwegian Oslo-based quintet Beaten To Death release their first album, "Xes And Strokes", consisting of 9 songs, 1 second of silence, and 18 min 36 sec gritty but strangely catchy grindcore!
Ultrafast drumming, ferocious guitars, snarling bass and intense vocals is the foundation of the B2D-sound. Add hauntingly beautiful harmonies and a brutal groove, and what you have is an energetic collection of death metal & grindcore you won’t be able to sit still to, no-matter what your taste in music happens to be!
Recorded 100 % live in studio over one weekend (with just the vocals added a few days later), this surely is a “what you see is what you get”-album!
The band is:
Anders Bakke – vocals
Martin Rygge – guitar/backing vocals
Tommy Hjelm – guitar/backing vocals
Mika Martinussen – bass
Christian “Bartender” Svendsen – drums
Beaten To Death debuterer med 9 låter, 1 sekund stillhet og 18 minutter og 36 sekunder møkkete og merkelig fengende grindcore!
Ultrakjappe trommer, hissige gitarer, snerrende bass og ond, ond, OND vokal danner basisen. Oppå dette heslige mørket svever vakre harmonier, og med en rød tråd av brutalt groovy låter er "Xes And Strokes" et insisterende og energisk album du hverken kan verge deg mot eller sitte stille til, nærmest uansett hvilken musikksmak du nå måtte ha!
Skiva er spilt inn 100 % live i studio, med bare vokalen lagt til i etterkant, så dette er et "what you see is what get"-album uten fiksfakseri!
Vokal besørges av selveste Anders Bakke (fra dypt savnede She Said Destroy), gitarene av Insense-gitaristene Martin Rygge og Tommy Hjelm, bassen av Mika Martinussen og trommene av Christian "Bartender" Svendsen (fra Tsjuder, Cumshots og Grimfist) - altså en rutinert gjeng som kan sin grind og dødsmetal!
