SHORT BLASTS: CDN RECORDS


The Canadian label CDN has been a hit and miss for me but they are nevertheless still delivering extreme music when so many others are loosing faith in the whole thing, and just call it a day...so kudos to Craig Newman for still helping out starting bands making a name for themselves for well over a decade now.

The label have 3 new releases now... SLAUGHTER HOUSE IN THE PRAIRIE with"All ease in Death" is a solid modern thrash metal band that plays in the same style as MACHINE HEAD or LAMB OF GOD... Far from being at the same level as these bands, they are still delivering some pretty cool music, heavy and catchy enough for me to actually play this aninvestigate themband further (7/10)...

CALCULATE "Apotheosis" is another solid release that blends Deathcore and groovy death Metal. Repetitive, but so heavy its unreal! My probleme with this album is the lack of individuality from song to song... Just don't abuse of this album and it will be enjoyable
for sure (7/10)...





PRIMALFROST "Chapters of time" is not really my cup of tea but is still a cool debut album. This is Pagan/ Folk metal influenced by bands such as ENSIFERUM and EQUILIBRIUM...definitely not as gigantic sounding as these 2 bands, but PRIMAFROST is definitely inspired bythe big names of the genre. If you crave this type of bands, I suggest you investigate further (7.5/10).
