Artist: DESTINED TO FESTER
Album: Pxlgreiii
Year: 2008

Destined to Fester is a brand new band from the U.S.A. It exists out of four members (including Dodd from HeritecH), but four people didn't seem enough for this EP appearantly, so there are three more guest members added for this release.

As you might have seen already on the tracklist, this release consists of just one track. The fact that this track is nearly 10 minutes long made this band probably decide to call this an EP in stead of a (web)single or something... anyway, about the music now. The first four and a half minutes are filled with ambient and industrial sounds. From there until about 5:45, we're thrown into a brutal musical part with influences from grindcore (cybergrind) to noise and some subtile black metal touches. The brutal part seems to die an unexpected death, when it turns into some cold ambient works again, but the track goes back to brutal after a while. Again some cybergrind influenced part follows, but this time a bit more experimental. After a little protounding bassworks, we find some surprise; an old school industrial rock/metal part, mixed and swapped with some brutal, black metal influenced parts. The track ends with pure brutality, where blastbeats are mixed with wicked guitarwork.

So well, one long track with different (but not so different) elements, and the EP is finished already. There's not much more left to say in the end (and not much to rate either, so there will be none). It's not for the weaker soul, or for the "standard" industrial metal fan, but if you feel like you can handle the pressure, give them a try.
