Although this band was created on the
remains of Afonia, but Forest Hum has its own ugly face and very strong
potential. When I heard this band first time, I was pleasantly surprised by the feed and quality of
their stuff. The debut work "Innocence"
for a long time was in the digital version on the network
and just recently found a tape flesh. By the
way cassette design has undergone a positive change and now this swamp
monster looks more darker and angrier. That is shown in the artwork but despite
this you will not find any
dampness in this 8 songs. These crazy guys from Russia are playing grindcore...
I do not even know what to compare
them with. Probably it's more
like the last works of Nasum (and bands like that). I will note that the record
is not the raw underground type and have a good sound. Guys came to the matter with all seriousness. I really
liked the way guys combined furious grindcore with metal...It turned out a very
cool mix with a special taste without cloning others guitar riffs. Shaving guitar sound mixed
with blastbeats, monolithic bass vibrations and screams. Also I have to say
that these songs are by no means empty, guys
tried to make their EP different… what a solo in the "Innocence"
song!
Rating: 8/10 Forest Hum bc
