two years ago deathrite released their first full length 'into extinction' via per koro records. it was a real heavy piece of music with few hardcore elements, some grindcore shots and a big chunk of death metal. after a year the album gained quite some praise in the underground and per koro teamed up with halo of flies records from the states to do a re-press for north america.
you know there is something going on when a european band gets a u.s.-pressing. it's not very often this way around and therefore deathrite flew on the radar of some u.s. labels. in the end prosthetic records signed the band from dresden and two months ago pre-orders for 'revelation of chaos' was launched. prosthetic has an u.k. store and thus shipping costs were acceptable.
after a little delay the record came in safe and sound and although i have only listened a couple of times to the record, it's safe to say that deathrite still knows which side their bread is buttered on. on this album they favoured their death metal elements a bit more and sound sometimes like good old obituary and this in the best sense possible. the lyrics are quite cliche but hey, it's fucking death metal, right?!
check out 'toxic hammer' and 'circle of destruction' and hail to the chaos. prosthetic pressed the u.s. version on white vinyl. the european edition comes on clear red but i think white vinyl matches the cover asthetics way better. my copy has some other colour traces inside the vinyl. love things like this, unfortunately it was hard to capture with the cam. the pic doesn't really do it justice. limited to 300 copies. prosthetic records. 2015.
