THE CORRODING AGE OF WOUNDS CD 2009 (Spirit of Metal/FRA)
Posted by: Bruno Zachariah in Reviews
It took Kratornas some time to achieve some decent exposure. After a bunch of demos, things seemed to pick up some speed for Bruno. There was a split LP with Balberith and a debut and now it seems he’s gained enough momentum to be signed on one of Black Metal’s most respected label: Kneel Before The Master’s Throne.
Kratornas is a 1 man black metal band hailing from the Phillipines which I was describe as extreme fast war/black/grind/thrash and this is a review of their 2009 album “The Corriding Age Of Wounds”. Drums on this recording are really fast with alot of blast beats that make Immortal sound like a doom metal band in comparison and they also slow down at times when the music gets slower, to give the music an even edge.
I got notified about this review by the Covenant Zine staff. It’s all about a review on ‘The Corroding Age of Wounds’. This is written in Italian I think and if you ask me, I didn’t understand it of course. Translators just don’t work and I don’t mind reading from there - it’s a war of words using that system. So whether this is good or bad, I don’t know. Just to keep the blood flow…
Bruno Zamora has been battering away at his one-man brand of vicious and raw black metal for over a decade, and two years ago released the first proper full-length, Over the Fourth Part of the Earth, which showed the man’s potential for over the top, disgusting primal chaos, black metal with traces of death and grind that amplify its extremity. The Corroding Age of Wounds is a sound follow-up, but be warned: this is not the type of black metal record you listen to for catchy or hypnotic rhythms, it’s an almost unmitigated, barbaric onslaught of filth.
Got this review, it’s about ‘The Corroding Age of Wounds’. The entire review is written in German. No idea what this is all about. I’ve used an online translator but it only came out with another jumbled statements - at least, an idea maybe…
2º álbum del incansable Bruno Zamora y su bestia engendrada bajo el nombre de Kratornas que de aquí a 3 años ha editado un montón de material desde un montón de splits, recopilatorios, demos, pasando por este 2º trabajo que es su última edición hasta la fecha.
Recent review from the French Metal webzine, Fannzic. Review came out in French only and I’ll post that French review here too. This blog sometimes couldn’t eat those kind of words and will display some funny characters here and there. French maniacs should go read it directly to that French site instead.
Long serving Philippines hell commander Bruno Zamora ascends once more from the pit with his one man chaos creation Kratornas to wreak havoc with this latest venomous offering ‘The Corroding Age Of Wounds’.
