AGONIZING
TERROR ZINE (Pol)
NOMINON
(Swe) Blaspheming the dead Ep'03
NUCLEAR WINTER RECORDS
I read some articles and interview about NOMINON into
very much metal fanzines, and I expected something
very much obscure and totally old school. But I must
say I was quite disappointed when I played this Ep.
While I imagined their music as being a cross between
doomy and obscure death metal melodies à la
ROTTREVORE and old school as fuck ferocious Death
metal between bands such as ENTOMBED (old), NIHILIST
or newer acts as REPUGNANT, KAAMOS, what I discovered
is a Death metal between the old stuffs of DISMEMBER,
GRAVE (really softer!) and it reminds me the last
UNLEASHED releases. I feel like it lacks of morbid
energy while the tracks are quite common. It's convenient
Death metal, and a bunch of melodies are here. Nothing
special. It could sound a bit like BLOODBATH's releases,
but it's less inspired and less Heavy Brutal. Cool
cover artwork in the old vein! Notice there's a REPULSION
cover!
Heavy Death metal vocals, tight musicians with Ok
tracks, but that's damn not enough! More blood and
tears! Even if nothing attracted my attention and
if it remains average, it doesn't suck. But one should
be an absolute old school maniac to get into NOMINON!
