Here's one I know many have been wanting to hear. At least I was searching desperately for it, until I finally managed to get my hand on an original vinyl some years ago. It's... a bit disappointing to be honest, the major reason being the sub-par vocals. Musically at least the 2nd and 3rd song are kinda cool Mercy/early-Death SS-like garage-doom. Let me know what you think:

Thanks for the chance to hear this one DaN.
As you said tracks 2 & 3 are pretty good musically, but those ropey vocals are indeed hard to take.

I thought at first of a mediocre.But after the middle of the first track it get's real cult.I think the band is awesome.The vocals has that special pronunciation/guitar sound of the early Scandinavian Metal mostly 1982-1984.I think if you are of this kind of stuff you'll find this stuff almost equal.

The band/track which remind me MOBILE VULGUS is this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAjDS6B7VPE just a bit more doomier.

The vocals kill this for me. Would have loved if this was any good since they are Norwegians, but no such luck. Thanks for the upload anyway, DaN.

More like Static Vulgus... ho ho ho.

Likeable despite the voxist & the lyrics. "Firemachine" had my head nodding. Thanks again.

I'm taking a short break from the Malay-reviews and will try to add more missing kült 7"s, starting with a short and unremarkable slagging of this one...

Rip should still be up for those who have not yet partaken in the disappointment..
