T666
Troops of Satan
3.7
Featuring some of the most heinous and poorly programmed/played drumming this reviewer has ever encountered, T666’s three song demo is roughly 10 minutes of someone pounding on the front door while grunting in the most monotone and ubiquitous death metal tone possible. Whoever the guy outside the door is, he brought some friends and they are doing thorough and diligent work to recycle all the worst riffs this side of Devourment. The songs have no character whatsoever. It is a sad day for metal, indeed, when I can say that Cannibal Corpse is a monument to creativity by comparison.
Horrendously irritating production servers to further flush this mockery of death metal down the shitter. There is a constant ring from the cymbals somewhere around 13k and the tone builds and builds in conjunction with the 100% triggered drum sound until its all I can do to finish the song before slamming the power button on my speakers. Bass is non-existent and though their guitar tone has a pleasing bite to it ala-Vader the only thing it comes away with is a mouth full of ass.
This demo is baffling. What is it T666 is out to accomplish? They can’t be very serious since their website is full of titties with the band logo scrawled thereupon in the most inverted and evil of all inks - permanent marker. Combine that with their ridiculous high-school-Satanism song titles and their self described presence as ‘The Nuclear Bomb from Australia’ it is my firm opinion that it’s perfectly safe to write this one off as mallcore from down under.
