Nauseate / Camphora Monobromata / Archagathus

If I remember it right, this split should have been out at least two years ago, but due to some circumstance, this release was delayed. This CD unites 3 bands from the 3 biggest countries of our cursed planet. So welcome Nauseate - India, Camphora Monobromata - Russia, and Archagathus - Canada. As you may notice this is very Punk stuff. The cover is done in an old crusty style (black and white colors are the mainstay here, each band recorded their stuff on their own, this split oozes diy spirit what else can I say? Nauseate is the lucky band to open this mad pit. Their Grind is raw and nasty, in just the right way. Which is cool, because their first release was too messy and awful. This music has many primitive Grind/Mince elements like a moderate tempo, simple and catchy structure, dirty guitar sound and goofy vocals. You won't find anything new in this material, but on the other hand these songs are not too bad. I must admit these guys have matured, they are growing as a band and that is good. Second shot - Camphora Monobromata comes in with a nice rehearsal recording. They have prepared 6 muddy tracks for this CD (and yes, it is old stuff that was recorded 3 years ago). Generally this material is cool, but the sound is too poor and raw (in my opinion), even so I felt real aggression and power through this mud. Camphora Monobromata managed to create catchy hyper-degenerated punky rhythms that could cheer your sad ass up. We have 7 Mincing tracks from the Canadian powerhouse to close out the split. Their anger comes forward straight away; the production is tight and the sound is good. Archagathus sticks to their usual formula, there are no surprises, just old and nasty riffs which will cut your head off, haha! This material is charged with a ferocious energy and it could bite. Buzzing guitar is here, the tone is right so it sounds really great. Drums are pleasantly raw and pitch shifted growling is loud. So what else do you need for a good party?

Agathocles/Nauseate split CD!

It's no secret that Grindfather prod. is the main supplier of noise drugs for sick grindcore community. For many years this guy is doing his unholy business, a lot of bands got the opportunity to release their stuff and become more popular thanks to this noise/chaos tenement. This time I'm reviewing new split of Agathocles/Nauseate! 
First band who introduced their music is the kings of the self-proclaimed style "mincecore" Belgian old grind-maniacs Agathocles! They were really generous this time to attach 15 sixteen-old tracks. Everyone of us know how legendary this band is. My speakers jumps along these good ol' hits! Essentially it's noisy and raw mincecore, as I already mentioned, but I should say that it's performed in style of middle period of Agathocles (like, after 2003). Overall, I really enjoyed this songs.
The second band that took part in making this evil incarnate are (attention, please) noisy guys from India! The country of spices, tea, bloody cult of Khali and famous movies! They made 13 songs for this split, and to be honest, it's pretty hard to listen to them after Agathocles. It sounds like they just recorded their rehearsals, even though they mentioned that they were on two studios during Christmas holidays, heh) but still I will give them chance, maybe they will shoot something really great, 'cause they're still pretty young band!
