Da heute der letzte Teil der zweiten Demo-Trilogie veröffentlicht wurde, sollte man TORTURE DIVISION vielleicht endlich einmal vorstellen.
Die Band kommt aus Schweden und hat mit Lord K. Philipson (THE PROJECT HATE MCMXCIX) und Tobben Gustafsson (VOMITORY) zwei nicht ganz unbekannte, im ersten Fall sogar erstaunlich vielseitige, Szenegrößen in ihren Reihen. Gegründet 2007, veröffentlichte der Dreier bereits 2008 drei Demos, die das musikalische Credo lautstark untermalen:
"You know, there’s a genre called death metal? We certainly belong in that genre. The goal is to play awesome death metal without complicating shit at all. We don't pansy around, we don't show off. We play death metal with tons of blasts, shitloads of groove and some thrashier passages that bands like Slayer only wish they could cook up. Including 'Reign in blood'."Mittlerweile gibt es 6 Demos (zusammengefasst in 2 Trilogien), die ihr komplett umsonst herunterladen könnt:
"With Endless Wrath..."-Trilogie"With Endless Wrath" (Demo, 2008)
"We Bring Upon Thee" (Demo, 2008)
"Our Infernal Torture" (Demo, 2008)
"Evighetens Dårar"-Trilogie
"Evighetens Dårar I" (Demo, 2009)
"Evighetens Dårar II" (Demo, 2010)
"Evighetens Dårar III" (Demo, 2010)
Wie es weitergeht, zeigt ein Blick auf die Ziele:
"What's The goal with this? - To record three demos first. After that we’ll do the next trilogy of demos. And then we’ll do another trilogy following those. And another… And another… An album? We are not interested in recording an album at this point. We never were. Too many shit bands are flooding the market, bands who shouldn’t have an album out with their name on it. We are not willing to be a part of that and we wish that more bands followed our example.
We have already turned down a bunch of labels who wanted to sign us, simply becoz we are not interested in signing a record deal. nor record a traditional album. We like to give the people free music, and in return we expect people to support us by buying our shirts and whatnot. The eventual profit we make from that will go straight into future demo recordings and the printing of new shirts.
There’s not a single band in the world that actually exist to give you music. Except for us. Torture Division is that band."Für Freunde skandinavischer DM-Kultur nicht zuletzt dank Swanö-Veredelung absolut unumgänglicher Stoff, den ihr hier vorkosten bzw. herunterladen könnt:
