Doomentia Records sets November 18th as the international release date for a special split LP between Evil Madness and Infernal Death. Infant Death and Evil Madness may come from two very different countries – or even continents, for that matter – and each have a slightly unique DNA, but they’re both old school to the fucking bone, and that’s why they’ve decided to gather forces to show the rest of the world how it’s done.
Originally released on tape through Ancestral Terror Productions from Chile – home turf of Evil Madness, whereas Infant Death are from Norway – this LP contains 31 minutes of vicious blackthrash meets old-school classic thrash, each band offering four and five tracks, respectively, of ripping torment, including a storming rendition of Onslaught’s very own “Thermonuclear Devastation,” courtesy of Infant Death: a fitting description of their approach, actually. Evil Madness may have a less blackish and more traditional way of decapitating their listeners’ heads – think more early Kreator or Possessed than, say, Aura Noir in that case – but both acts have the same uncompromising and “fuck all trends” attitude.
As implied by this split, pressed on 45 RPM vinyl to insure maximum audio fidelity, they’re not here to take any prisoners! Cover and tracklisting are as follows:
A2. Evil Madness – Debased Mind
A3. Evil Madness – Convulsive Reality
A4. Evil Madness – Speed Kills
B1. Infant Death – Cleanser of the Weak
B2. Infant Death – Phases of Ignorance
