it is already ten month ago that i obtained this record. but due to a loss of all my vinyl pictures, this baby disappeared in the sheer flood of records that had been piling up in the meantime. "demonize" was another record of a strong release period of demons in the middle of 2013. a perfect murder is a band from quebec, canada. they formed in 2001 and in the mid 00's they released three full length albums for victory records. to be honest i don't know any of them. at least not properly. just a loose collection of songs i heard at friend's places. i even saw them once live in berlin on hell on earth tour 2006. i couldn't really remember that, i stumbled upon it while doing some research for this post. i still have that ticket and memory slowly comes back. they were a good live act back then
they broke up in 2007 and came back briefly in 2009 and 2011. now they are here with a steady line-up and a new record. the one thing that pushed me forward to purchase this piece of grooved plastic, was a comparison to throwdown in the demons run amok description. and honestly, that was all i needed. by the way, why does that new throwdown album doesn't appear on vinyl? what's wrong entertainment one records? back to a perfect murder. "demonize" is quite good but that's it. no killer, no gamechanger, not even a brilliant copy cat. just solid and in this case a bit boring to me. a shame, because there are good beginnings but they fail to complete a good idea with that kind of special moment, that is hard to grab. that kind of moment which makes a good song to a great song.
of course i will provide you with a link to some music from "demonize", so you can judge for yourself. when it comes to the presentation, demons run amok doesn't seem to disappoint. lovely cover art work, nicely lay-outed insert, black dust sleeve and quality clear w/ black splatter vinyl. yupp, that's why i like to buy from dra. they pressed 300 copies on black vinyl, 100 copies on red w/ black splatter and 100 copies on my version. demons run amok entertainment. 2013.
