LISTEN TO VOID MEDITATION CULT...NOW!

Attention death metal fetishists worldwide -- you've got new favorite band. They are Void Meditation Cult.

At present time, little is known of the group. No information about the members, where the group hails from, when they formed - none of that is available. In place of trivia, there is a song -- "All of the Devil's Temple," which can be heard at Hells Headbangers' page for the band. The cult metal label will release the group's debut demo tape later this summer.

If the rest of the tape rules as hard as this song, your head is going to experience the Vancouver riots a thousand times over. The whispered vocals provide an eerie, slithering menace to the guitars pulled from the deepest, foulest crypts. In fact, if you got hip to the Sperm of Antichrist tape Hells Headbangers released last year, that description sounds familiar. While that tape was dandy, Void Meditation Cult are much more potent, focused, and FUCKING EVIL. The "Meditation" part of their name plays a large part in the band's sound -- the way the music moves, you feel as though you're preparing and waiting for a specter to take control of your functions. Those ghosts float in the music too, as otherworldly sounds take hold when the vocals stop. Void Meditation Cult make some of the most ominous death metal we've heard in some time.

We eagerly await more from this group.
