We\u2019ve all been waiting for a band to release a song called \u2018Fistfuckchrist\u2019, haven\u2019t we? Well, for those of you who haven\u2019t, it\u2019s too late because the mysterious Nuclear Perversion are a bunch of metal madmen who obviously thought we\u2019d appreciate such an anthem!<\/p>\n<p>Beginning with a war-torn frenzy, this debut demo tape comes fully armed \u2013 to the teeth, in fact \u2013 with musical savagery. Eight tracks (including an intro and outro) to pulverise the soul, all delivered in holocaustic rage and nightmarish grind blasts. As demo compositions go, this is one that will remove the ears very quickly. <\/p>\n<p>If you like grinding blackened death metal, then look no further than this belligerent mess of scrambling, volatile skin striking, horrid barking vocal bouts and bestial backdrops of weighty sneering guitar. <\/p>\n<p>With \u2018Satan\u2019s Wrath\u2019, we\u2019re battered and bludgeoned by a steady backbeat and those gnarly, mocking vocal growls, bringing together an unholy blend of down-tuned grimness and perverse passion which results in a general feeling of contempt and misery. The second musical expression comes via the hideous noise of \u2018Misanthropic Annihilation\u2019, which is delivered as a no frills, maniacal expression of hateful black metal laced with that deathly weight of seething angst. And it just ploughs on through the strewn carcasses like a gigantic fulgurous storm where its lightning streaks just reduce every remaining bone to ash. <\/p>\n<p>Nuclear Perversion doesn\u2019t want to be flashy or original but merely bulldoze its way through life, and at the helm are those vocals which for me make the whole platter even gnarlier. However, it\u2019s not just a case of a guttural bellow because every now and then we\u2019re given a treat as the voice turns into some maniacal squawk replicating the hungry malevolence of a flesh-hungry crow. This is the only real variation though, as \u2018Crushing The Symbols Of The Holy\u2019 quite literally lives up to its name, and \u2018Weapons Of Mass Perversion\u2019 isn\u2019t going to adhere itself to the masses either as it trudges on with that almost mundane yet tight, hammering execution of grind and death. <\/p>\n<p>And then of course we come to everyone\u2019s favourite hit, \u2018Fistfuckchrist\u2019, which is in fact merely a 41-second grunt accompanied by a raging rhythm section and nothing more. If you want to spend your days simply barking <em>\u201cfistfuckchrist\u201d<\/em> out of your window though, then you will surely need this musical accompaniment. <\/p>\n<p>And with that, \u2018Sodomic Nuclear Sunrise\u2019 finishes the job, combining that hurtling hateful grind with a slower, more ponderous process of obliteration before a lengthy outro of suspense leaves our sorry carcass to wilt in the blazing sun.
