### Hebosagil: Colossal

#### 05/08/08 || Kampfar

Armed with ruthless determination, nihilistic wit and a bunch of super-sludgy gargantuan grooves, Hebosagil is up to set the world in flames.

Around these parts we tend to quote press statements/torrent of words to point fingers and piss reality based A.I.D.S all over them. Or simply because we cannot think up a proper intro, as is the case here. I still piss on you, but this time not the assertion, a snappy snippet, believe it or not, giving you, the potential listener, a rather excellent impression of what to expect.

Quite impressive, I know, and likewise so is the fact that “Colossal” is named so for a reason, a title not pulled out of an ass for a change. At first, however, that being before I adjusted the bass, it was all too colossal, coming across as a distorted mess made for the sake of melting amps and setting speakers on fire.

A bit of fiddling and a couple of listens later and I have more or less fallen in love with the album and its massive grooves interlaced with tons of filth and desperation. It’s a downright ugly platter, this much thanks to a lo-fi and screeching but utterly punch-y production, one which the band use to its fullest, hammering home their message of doom and destruction with utter conviction. And the vocalist, well, he sounds fucked up alright, like he is tearing his face off while screaming bile, hate and frustration all over the place. Put simple, he is a perfect match.

I wholeheartedly recommend “Colossal” to those into sludge and heavy filth, and only them, as I believe it takes a trained ear to appreciate the oppressive and churning nature of this band.

8,5 out of 10.
