### Black Bleeding: The great Satan

#### 28/01/09 || Kampfar

Much has been written about Belgium, a lot less has been read, and hadn’t it been for Albania I’m quite sure it would have been ranked as the biggest shithole in the whole of Europe. Last mentioned hellhole is even worse because I never heard or even heard of a single band from said shores and I really, really doubt they are any good at making waffles. Drug dealers? Yes. Waffle dealers? No. So, Belgium 2 Albania 0.

Black Bleeding, as those not retarded among you understood from the intro already, hails from Belgium. Or Luxembourg. Fuck it, whatever sorry excuse of a country the province of Arlon is a part of this bunch of fucknuts hails from. Alright, geography and nonsense aside, it is time to dissect and give you my impression of their latest output, “The great Satan” that is. It’s quite good, a hell lot better than the title suggests, and if you, dreaded reader, tend to like music labeled black/death I’m pretty sure you’ll agree.

Lo and behold, it is not the second coming of anything I have “dug” up this time around either, but Black Bleeding’s take on said genre is at least good enough to make me puzzle and pull my penis over the fact that they are an unsigned act. And, unsurprisingly, I do this is because “The great Satan” is a whole lot better than what many a signed act craps out on a regular basis. Whatever the style. Sure, the first part, meaning the 3 first songs, are undeniably better than what follows after but in this world of shit and a shitty lot of shitty bands, 3 very good songs are a feat not to be snorted at.

The whole album – apart from “The meaning of life”, which is nothing but 31 seconds of silence – is a blast happy and focused attack of blackened death fit into a nice suit. The suit in question is of course the production. Not an Armani one, but it sure kicks some refined ass. Only a shame then, a minor one at it, that the band fail to make the most of it and hand over 8 tip-top tracks worth of violence. Honestly, if they’d been able to keep up the creativity and not just the pace all way through, I’d rob a bank to obtain the money necessary to start an obscure label, namely Execution Records, and make them my first signing.

So, the “only” reason why this self-released piece of plastic doesn’t receive a smile and two thumbs up, boils down to the very fact that their collective songwriting capacity is a bit on the limited side. Oh, I forgot to tell you that this unit, 3-man strong, actually sounds like one and that they are pretty ace at their instruments. All of them. And that the vocalist is very good, if you care for a meaty growl, that is.

Over and out from Whoreway.
