Skulldozer – Non Stop Ruthless Crushing Review

Immediately, as the listener presses that play button, one is welcome to the world of Skulldozer, which drags the listener through a musical spectrum filled with bone-crushing, decaying extreme music -from that first opening piece, Non Stop Ruthless Crushing until the closing song Skullf**king Domination.

As one continues their dark, crushing, decaying, and brutal journey of ten songs that will crush your skull and destroy every essence of life out of your eardrums and speakers before reaching the end of the opening piece, Non Stop Ruthless Crushing — simultaneously not only delivers the listener’s ears with ten killer, brutal and crushing songs – but providing and delivering a fly-infester-rotting fruit that combines elements of traditional (brutal/technical) death metal of that’s firmly rooted in the old-school and modern (swampy) melodic sludge metal -thus creating/capturing something unique, different and divine of not sounding like any other death metal act.

At the same time, Non Stop Ruthless Crushing is a divine blessing of giving the listener this Melodic Death Sludge Metal that pushes the boundaries of experimentation in sound, brutalization, and heaviness -thus giving the band that heavy statues honor of “Music is art, and art should know no boundaries” which is injected with awesome composing of the music and the instrumetal work, which are both top-notch and solid to the core, along with the production work, which is also solid like the halls of hell.

In comparison, the instrumental and vocal artistry consists of (with perfect transitions of various heaviness, chords, tones, moods, atmosphere, and tempos) dual venomous technical/progressive -yet swamped with the sludge distortion/dissonance of heaviness-riff work and short-sweet (melodic) solos/(occasionally) multi chord playing of bringing of death/end of things, deep roaring guttural vocal work, pounding and aggressive (tint of a grooviest in rhythm/beats like a war machine grinding through a field—filled with decaying remains of humankind) drum strikes/fills, beats, and tempos, merciless-heavy bass riffs which are all delivered by excellent devilmanship.

While sitting here, indulgent in the music and inking this review -I found behind the music, buried within the lyrics, and buried within these lyrics, the music comes much darker (meaningful, captivating) -where these dark poems/songs are inked about (in fantasy and poetic storytelling way) tyranny, mind control/world enslavement, corruption, vengeance, death, redemption, awakening, and harsh reality.

Complete ruthlessly annihilation-crushing-adrenaline headbanging that’s neither repetitive nor dull -full-on entertaining.
