INTERMOSH 8/14/92

Well a bunch of REALLY cool new albums just came out convincing me that
the '92 music scene isn't as putrid as I thought!  Deliverance's, "Stay of
Execution" is my cry to them since they redeemed themselves from "What A
Joke" (aptly named).. it's musically brilliant, slowed down to allow
influences by Testament, Queensryche, Metallica and even Queen to their
material.. very VERY well done, dudes in Deliverance, and a must-buy for
you! 

Also out is the new Mad at the World, "Through The Forest"... really cool!
More of a King's X/Cult/Danzig mix in this particular release though the
first song sounds more progressive than the others.. the most beautiful
ballad ever written since "The Wall" by Kansas is on this release, "I've
Got A Heaven".

"I've Got a Heaven/You can take that away.."

DBM, the Christian doom/thrash group from Finland, released their demo,
"Slayer of Evil".. not bad but only one song, "Consequences", is actually
more of a death metal type song...

And in other bits o' news, the Aussie death band Discarnated will be
releasing a full-on demo in March '93 (thank the Lord I got my copy now!
It's REALLY yum city!).. look for the release of Sacred Warrior's fifth
album (man they are becoming major Christian metal veterans here!): "New
World Order".. and in 4 weeks Sacrament's new one, "Haunts of Violence",
will be pleasing the Kreator/Forbidden/Sepultura fans out there...

Ash Henson, the growlin' vocalist of the Houston death band Red Ink, has
returned from the Netherlands from working with the band Decision-D whose
lead singer, Edwin Ogenio, is pastor of God's Pleasure Church, a really
cool New Testament hangout place for folks tired of the silly Amsterdam
lifestyle on Sunday mornings (a "metal church" hahaha).. speaking of
"metal church", Sanctuary Church has put out "Sanctuary Praise 2".. for
those of you who like a change of pace from "GRRRROOOOWWWLLLL" and
"RRRROOOAARRR" 24 hours a day (like me!)

Final Judgement played a successful show at a major club in Atlanta (their
home) and are excited about recording on "Bible Belt Metal", a collection
of Christian metal bands from the South (I am NOT making this up!)... also
look for the second demo release from the one-man Seattle industrial band
Arbitrage and if it's anything like "Music for the Sacrifice", look out,
you Godflesh/Skinny Puppy fans!... 

** Too Odd To Be Made Up **
Congrats to Otto from Joe and the Coffeemakers for getting married!
Attending the wedding was his brother Eric, who is in the band ARGH...
members of ARGH were at Cornerstone '92 this year, and also the band Luv U
Ded, the progressive thrash band from Louisiana, as well as Michael from
the band.. BAND... 
** The Preceding News Is Dead Serious **

Lee, formerly of the band Gouge (who sadly broke up), informed me last
month that he will be redistributing copies of Gouge's only demo..
eyewitnesses say that they were the Christian version of GWAR, with
elaborate stage setups including chopping off the head of the Easter Bunny!

Living Sacrifice will continue their tour for another week.. hope you get
to see them, it's worth it! Look for the concert review in the upcoming
new (NEW! YES NEW!!!) issue of Cephas/Teeth, which includes an interview
with Sacrament...

Former Recon/Deliverance geetarist George Ochoa has been getting together
with John Gonzalez, former drummer of both Recon and Deliverance.. since
Deliverance has a line-up, could Recon be reforming?? Hmmm.... and will
Mike Lee PLEASE join Die Happy??!!!!

Stay tuned for more news on your favorite bands... and oh yeah, congrats
to Kevin Ayers of Haven on his engagement (now where is the rest of the
band gonna live?)!!

GET DELIVERANCE! MORTIFICATION! CIRCLE OF DUST! MAD AT THE WORLD! Then you
have one free coupon... buy Amy! (just kidding!)

Stay in the Woid!

Phil
