Alright, buckle up, buttercups, because we are plunging straight into the Charybdis that is Bury the Hordes' "Scarlet Rot." These Plymouth lads have clearly decided that subtlety is for, well, people who enjoy things like "pleasant conversation" and "not having their eardrums annihilated by the sounds of distorted guitars, gutturals and blast beats."
They've taken Death-core, Death metal, and a unhealthy dose of blackened Death metal, thrown them into a blender, and hit "pulverize." The result? A delightfully chaotic concoction that'll have you headbanging so hard you'll need a physiotherapist on speed dial.
This track is heavy. Like, "gravity on Jupiter". The riffs are slow, crunchy, and sound like they were forged in the fiery depths of Mount Doom. Imagine a tank rolling through a field of rusty nails, and you're halfway there.
It's brutal. In a way that makes you deeply question your life choices, but somehow in a good way. You find yourself thinking, "Did I really just survive that?" and it leaves you with a strange sense of accomplishment and exhilaration. It's clear Bury the Hordes aren't here to play nice. They're here to unleash an apocalypse, and frankly, I'm ready for it.
in essence, if you crave music that's raw, relentless, and unapologetically heavy, these Janner metalheads are your new overlords. Prepare for a bombardment that will leave you begging for an encore, or possibly a hearing aid. Unless, of course, you're averse to developing a sudden and inexplicable urge to start a viking raid on your local supermarket.
These guys don't just play heavy music, they weaponize it. "Scarlett Rot" is less a song, and more a declaration of war against silence. If you're ready to surrender to the chaos, then Bury the Hordes are waiting. Just remember to wear a helmet, and maybe bring a spare pair of eardrums.
