Do you remember that one year ago I reviewed a Vienna-based band called Hellavista? Well, today Vienna, Austria, returns on these pages through Deathtale, a quintet founded in 2008 by the will of the bassplayer Philipp Späth and of the veteran drummer Tom Kräutner after his demise with his previous band Demolition. With the addition of a second guitarist in the person of Gilli Gehring that made Deathtale a quintet (in fact, before they were a quartet), these Austrian guys released 4 months ago a third album under the auspices of Art Gates Records (please read the interview that I did to Ivan Magdalena about his label). The result of this collaboration has been "The Origin of Hate".

My Minds Mine - "Passengers of the Void" (Selfmadegod Records, 2018)

Title: Passengers of the Void
Genre: Grindcore
Time: 16.58 min
Release Date: 12th October 2018
Rating: 70/100













Nowadays it's a inevitable thing! More and more old bands are reforming after many years of silence. It seem that Selfmadegod Records loves to support bands of this kind, as exemplified recently on these pages with the mighty Psychoneurosis. But today there is another example thanks to My Minds Mine, a Dutch grindcore band whose psychotic "campaign for musical destruction" started in 1995. Dead in 2002 after releasing two very short full-lenght albums and some splits in according to the purest grindcore tradition (no splits with Agathocles, and this is really strange!), My Minds Mine are back in 2015. After their return, they released two splits with Suffering Quota and Sick of Stupidity, and, then, it was time to give a violent birth to the comeback album: "Passengers of the Void". Now cover your fukken ears if you don't want to be deaf for the rest of your life!

In October 2018 I received a mega-pack from the Polish label Godz ov War Productions. That pack contained not only 6 cds but also a t-shirt of the label that its boss Greg Rosensthal gave me for free! At this point, I have to underline here that Greg is really great and Godz ov War is a fantastic label, so support it! Below, you can see the t-shirt as well the cds of that pack.

INTERVIEW TO ART GATES RECORDS!!! (IVAN MAGDALENA)

 

Hey brutalbangers,
I remember that my collaboration with Art Gates Records started even 7 years ago, when this Spanish label was still in its first days of existence. Since then, AGR has become an important underground label, and the nicer thing is that it is still growing up in a so good way that they recently opened their first office outside their national borders, precisely in Mexico. Hence, considering this long collaboration between us, some time ago I thought well to ask to Ivan Magdalena, one of the founders of this label, to interview him about it. So, today I am very honoured to present you this interview about Art Gates Records. Expect to read very interesting answers in which you can feel a real passion and dedication about the label, the AGR's bands and the metal music in general.
And many thanks to Ivan also to sending me the fantastic pics that you'll find throughout the interview!

ENJOY THE ARTICLE!!!
