Album Notes

Brutality and finesse collide on the debut full length from Dagon. Following up their critically acclaimed EP “Secrets of the Deep”, Dagon delivers a slab of white hot metal that is sure to impress those who like their metal technical, fast, and brutal. The band mixes furious thrash riffing and machine gun double bass with vocals that span guttural death, grind, and black, and then lays on a heavy dose of 80’s worship with an assault of blazing solos, dual harmonies, and memorable melodies. Imagine Iron Maiden getting married to Slayer and adding extremely brutal vocals, and you have a small glimpse of the Dagon sound. The pace rarely lets up, and lovers of classic shred and brutal speed will instantly fall in love. This release features 11 songs, 9 of which are brand new, and 2 which are rerecorded from the EP. Dagon is recommended for fans of Hypocrisy, Dimension Zero, Iron Maiden, Dark Tranquility, Slayer, and those into thrash and death with some serious guitar chops.

Holy F**k

This is a hell of a debute from what they have to come from this death metal outfit. Picture Dani Filth of Cradle of Filth doing oceanic lyrics and that would be Batterbee singing. Ladiski sounds kind of like Chris Barnes if Chris Barnes was telling stories about the people of Atlantis. This one is a lot faster than their second disc. The double bass drumming is very lighting fast. I had to have the lyrics with me to see where they were going with the lyrics but like Terraphobic the lyrics are very imaginative. When hearing this you have to swear a little bit when you hear it because they take the dark oceanic theme and run with it here.
