Lifeless - Godconstruct
Founded early 2006 Lifeless have been performing ultimate true to the bone Traditional Death Metal ever since. Without any fucking compromise!!! In 2007 they recorded their debut album "Beyond The Threshold Of Death" all by themselves. The mastering was done by Vesa Kenttäkumpu from Swedish Death Metal legends Evocation. In fall 2009 they signed with US based Ibex Moon Records, the label of Incantation mastermind John McEntee on which "Beyond The Threshold Of Death" was officially re-released in June 2010 including a new artwork and a cover version of Dismember's classic "Casket Garden" as a bonus track. In 2011 they parted ways with Ibex Moon Records to get more reputation on the European market. Finally signed a new deal with German based FDA Rekotz (Entrails, Revel In Flesh, Revolting, Goregast etc.). Their first release on this label is a split 7 inch EP called "Chapel Of A Lifeless Cult" with their labelmates Chapel Of Disease. The new full length album will be released in early 2013 and include 10 songs of total old skull Death fucking Metal. …sofar the official info about the band.
"Godconstruct" is the second output of the german band. From the first moment of the album you know what you get - old School Death out of the 90's. There are not a lot of bands, who play straight old school death nowadays. Melodic and thrashy parts are well implemented and give the album a good sound. The classic songwriting fits perfect to all composings. The band has the best moments in their mid tempo parts. All of the songs are well structured and are written in a good variety. The sound is really good, deep shredding guitars, phat drum sound and really evil deep grunts – a really good sound package. While listening "Godconstruct" you feel teleported back to the middle of the 90's, and it's not a copy of something and there isn't really a part, you have heard from an other band. Lifeless have created their own style.
The only (small) weakpoint of the album is the lead guitar. Sometimes it brakes the flow, sounds like it's a little late and not perfect in time. All in all "Godconstruct" is a really solid old school death album and a fine output. Horns up!
