Bio:
We

the desire and ambition to create music that is pushing the
boundaries beyond what one would expect in certain metal genres.
Inspired by bands of the past, we draw our inspiration while
injecting our own breed of aggression, passion and fury. We do this
because we are fans of metal music, it is what drives us, keeps us
inspired and gives us the desire to continue forging onward creating

reviews through various blogs, zines, websites and were featured in

many notable metal acts. We have self released 2 EP’s, 'The
Condemned' in 2011 and ‘Denied Salvation’ in 2012. 2014 with see

Review:
Dismemberment
are a hotly tipped Black/Thrash/Death Metal band from Ohio, USA.
Their debut album Embrace The Dark showcases a band who never take
the foot off the pedal as this one fast and furious fucked up
release. Taking influences from Carcass, Toxic Holocaust and Napalm
Death up to a point. Dismemberment will delight all you thrash/death
heads as this album has a lot of pissed off riffs to take it's anger
upon.
Lead
Vocalist – Luke – sings with conviction as he shouts and grunts
his way through an actioned packed ride of terror, thrills and
spills. Can I say this without hurting the bands image but they have
written some catchy as hell tunes which had me rocking out in no time
at all.
The
album has it's fair share of standout tracks mainly coming from
Confess Your Flesh, Archaic Wisdom and Labyrinth being some of the
early highlights. The band never lose sight of their demonic style of
carnage and they pull it off with gusto and conviction from a band
you wouldn't expect to hear on a debut album.
It's
to the bands credit and talent they add elements of Doom and gloom
atmospherics on the album which gives the album a more darker and
refined edge. Though the band truly pull out all the stops on the 2nd
half of the album as the mood becomes slightly more darker and
slightly sinister and it makes for one hell of an exciting ride into
the darkness.
Aura
Of Obscurity proves that Dismemberment can write a haunting and
sinister tune that evokes memories of early Opeth but still
maintaining their own identity. Anathema sees the band pay homage to
their thrash metal roots as they once again play some stunning fast
paced riffs with a lot of groove.
Embrace
The Dark is a hard-hitting affair that pushes all of the right
buttons for a Death/Thrash/Black Metal hybrid album. It's got some
killer tracks that will annihilate both your hearing and your
speakers. The band are on fire through out and you can see why they
are highly thought of within their local scene.
A
dark, vicious and delightful treat for all you extreme metal fans.
Check this album now. You won't be sorry.
