Foul — Naturan Demanto
Foul is the new blackly boiling & near unchanging HWN project of West Virginia based J. Cadle, who in the past went under the name of White Torture & is still in ...Massacre(with Sam Stoxen of Baculum & runner of Phage Tapes) & Oasis Of Fear(with Richard Ramirez).
Naturan Demanto is the first release under the new Foul name & if I were to compared it to the little bit of White Torture I've heard in the past I’d say Foul is a lot more punishing, unchanging & darkly crushing. On offer here is one twenty minute track of skull ripping & hell rushing HNW which starts out with a short sample from the first Evil Dead movie, of the dead Doctor talking about the book of the dead, before the wall of sound rips in it’s sonic fire into you head. The main element here is like a very loud storm or torrential rain tone which hammers constantly down on you in a very unforgiving manner, ever so often underneath this main tone Candle forces out tight spirals of static barbwire tone & rips; but theses are very subtle- the track really is all about forming a thick & impenetrable wall of dark sound. On the whole the track nicely fits with the Evil Dead sample & the cover artwork (which utilizes a skull picture from the second evil dead movie poster) so that one can imagine been pursued by a fast & unstoppable demonic entity through nighttime woodlands with this track.
As with anything on the excellent Phage tapes label this is has a really classy & professional looking package with the 3inch cdr coming in a mini jewel case with the simple but effective skull artwork on it.
