This week's #ThursDeath is the excellent new debut EP that Saint Petersburg, Russia's PUTRID REQUIEM just put out a couple weeks ago, 'Engulfed in Rot... You Lay'. This is a crusty, grody, growly and surprisingly dynamic and tight ripper with a dark, OSDM feel. And the last track is a Mortician cover. What else could you ask for.

#ThursDeath this week is one I've been listening to a lot of, the new LP 'Desire for Murder' by Russia's NECROGENESIS. This one chugs and rips and has a lot of great dynamics, especially for death metal- there's a bit of brutal death on it sometimes, a black metal vocal or two for emphasis here and there, some great guitar and drum work. Give this one a listen-- it's a wild ride.

This week's bonus #ThursDeath is the new Gosudar 7", 'Eschatological Agony of the Universe'. This one starts with a growly, sludgy 7+ minute track that has great fast/slow dynamics, and then the second track is instrumental-- kinda ambient, with bells? Man, I love Gosudar. They're from Russia and had a great LP in 2021. Always good to hear from these guys. Yet another great one from Rotted Life Records.
