FUNERAL GOAT – Mass ov Perversion CD
Daemon Worship Productions
For those of you who are regular readers of Scumfeast Metal, and frankly who isn’t, then you know that I have a sick & twisted perversion for bands with the word “goat” in their name. Not that I’m weird or sexually attracted to the creatures. The fact is that the goat is the anti-animal to the lamb, plus it has horns. But anyway I got into this band last year drawn by the goat moniker but it’s the music which held me in complete appreciation. When Dutch Black Metal band SAURON called it quits in 2008, their bassist HerrAIDS and drummer Ludas still had plenty of hate flowing through their veins. Naturally they teamed up to create FUNERAL GOAT with HerrAIDS taking on the guitar and vocal duties. This, their debut release, is not a continuation of SAURON but instead it’s something more on the lines of primitive satanic Black Metal and they do worship the goat, “Kiss the Goat”. Of the thirteen cuts on Mass ov Perversion most are short blasts of frenzied slash and burn black hatred with the exception of songs like the opener “Praise the Beast”, “Conjuration” and “Communion ov the Blacklord”. Also the duo isn’t afraid to add a little outside of the genre touches like on “Conjuration” where they slip into Doom mode or “Essence ov Impiety” where they kick out some Black & Roll ala DODSFERD. Sound wise Ludas’ pounding drums are the commanding element on here. HerrAIDS guitar sound is akin to a dentist’s drill possessed and his vocals are more like barks that alternate between typical harsh screams and deathlike grunts. Obviously this is not for any fans of the post-Black Metal hippie stuff. Think more on the lines of a more blasphemous version of HELLHAMMER which to me sounds perfect.
