WARGRINDER is a band originating from the petting pits of Greece, and have been molesting the weak since 2000. The release in discussion is a compilation, comprising of WARGRINDER's material from the period between 2000 and 2003.
Their first five
tracks are taken from their debut album, titled: "Command for Wargrinding".
The remainder of the tracks are taken from split releases they've done with the
likes of BLASPHEMOUS NOISE TORMENT and WAR HAMMER COMMAND. The sound is pretty
obscure, and best described as Black/Death with a slight sodomization of Grind.
The entire output is rather putrid and acrid in sensation, which brings to mind
the hostilities displayed of bands such as ANGELCORPSE and UNHOLY ARCHANGEL.
Low hoarse-like vocals echo in the background, only to emphasize the
atmosphere, while the drums fires forth in speedy, yet fucking gritty
precision. The quality of the sound recording is rather cavernous, but seems to
be an accentuating factor to the band's style. As you play through the songs,
there seems to be a definite steady improvement in terms of quality. Most of
the featured tracks aren't exactly very extensive, but do tend to hover just
over the two minute mark. If I had to make a personal choice then it would be the
tracks from the WAR HAMMER COMMAND split.
In conclusion:
"Erase Seeds of Ignorance" is a good compilation, underlining the
band's early years and consequent development with each release. Contact
