CRUEL HUMANITY
CREATURES OF FEAR
(SHADOWFLAME)
KKKK
Stunning debut from UK black metals new heroes
ITS ALWAYS a pleasure to hear new British metal bands
that dare to be different, and this lot have devised a
sound that seems genuinely free of the usual,
hackneyed influences. A cobweb-clearing blast of fetid
air, Cruel Humanitys blackened thrash shreds and
slashes like a rusty, serrated blade thrust in to your
face, but they are also capable of pissing confidently
on the rulebook with slabs of mid-paced Rotting
Christ-style gothic crunch (Creatures Of Fear) and
plenty of sweeping, trad metal grandiloquence (Blood
Omen). This is more than impressive for now, but with
a bigger budget these artful extremists could have a
glittering future.
