Eternally dedicated to our enemies


Revenge is the duo of J. Read and P Helmkamp. While I can find very little info on this Canadian group, I do know that J. Read has also done time in the now classic Conqueror and currently also plays with technical war-mongers Axis of Advance. Previous to Victory.Intolerance.Mastery, the band has issued 4 other releases including a split 7" with like-minded label mates Arkhon Infaustus.The liner notes depict the two members outfitted with full camo, bullet belts, and knives in hand, seemingly prepared to unleash the worst.

And they truely do unleash the worst. Harsh, bleak, black noise influenced HEAVILY by Oath of Black Blood era Beherit. Revenge have managed to concoct a maelstrom that is absolutely devoid of any melody or stardard musical trappings. The only noticable tools used here seem to be drums, guitar, and vocals, but these instruments are used to create an undeniable wall of sound. What really stands out here though, are the vocals. An absolutely inhuman, layered mess of highs and lows that sometimes sound more like the throat in charge is inhaling as it issues forth these songs for the condemned.

It's hard to find a standout track here but Blood Annhilation will do as well as any other to convert or repell you from the unholy ritual that is revenge.
