Johansson And Speckmann/Sulphur Skies/Vic Records/2013 CD Review


  Johansson  And  Speckmann  are  a  duo  that   has  teamed up  with  the former  being  known  for  his  work  in  Paganizer  and  Human  Delete  with  the  later  being  known  for  Master,  Abomination  and  Krabathor  with  the  music  style  on  this  recording  being  old  school  death  metal  which  was  released  under  the  album  title  "Sulphur  Skies"  by  Vic  Records  during  the  year  of  2013.

  Drums  range  from  slow,  mid  paced  to   fast  drumming  with  only  a  small  amount  of  blast  beats,  while  the  bass  playing  has  a  very  dark  tone  with  riffs  that  follow  the  riffing  that  are  coming  out  of  the  guitars.

  Rhythm  guitars  range  from s low,  mid  paced  to  fast  death  metal  riffs  that  are  very  heavy  and  old  school  sounding  with  some  thrash  influences  being  thrown  into  the  riffing,  while  the  lead  guitars  are  very  old  school  and  dark  sounding  death  metal  guitar  solos  and  leads.

  Vocals a re  mostly  deep  death  metal  growls  that h ave  some  thrash  influences  to  them,  while  the  lyrics  cover  darkness  and  gore  themes,  as  for  the  production  it  has  a  very  strong,  powerful,  heavy,  old  school  and  professional  sound  to  it.

  In  my opinion  this  is  a  great  sounding  album  from  Johansson  And  Speckmann  and  if  you  are  a  fan  of  old  school  death  metal,  you  should  check  out  this  recording.  RECOMMENDED  TRACKS  INCLUDE  "Spiritual  Wasteland"  "Rotten  Lands"  "The  Wretched  Mann"  and  "The  Stench  Of  Mankind".  RECOMMENDED  BUY.
