Description
For over a decade now Brazil’s POWER FROM HELL have been something of a cult institution in the metal underground. Their four albums to date have been highly coveted for their unapologetic simplicity and sinister aura and now longtime fans HELLS HEADBANGERS step in to unleash their fifth album Devil’s Whorehouse! In many ways Devil’s Whorehouse is the perfect distillation of the POWER FROM HELL experience: immediately headbanging mini-anthems extolling the virtues of every evil all draped in deliberately crude production that oozes atmosphere. Naturally the band’s moniker gives some clue as to where their allegiance and influences lay but other Class of ’84 names like Bathory Hellhammer Japan’s Sabbat and very early Slayer should spell in no uncertain terms what kind of black METAL the duo of Sodomic and Tormentor favor most. But it’s the ghostly yet still-aggressive aura surrounding Devil’s Whorehouse that really sets POWER FROM HELL away from the pack and closer to primitive isolationists like Countess GRAVEWURM and Canada’s Megiddo. Enter Devil’s Whorehouse and let the ancient ritual begin!
