Prisoner Of War - Rot

by Iron Bonehead Productions

Choco Latte It's too bad that Prisoner Of War is on hiatus. I mean just listen to this storm of death metal malevolence. The solos come out of nowhere, and the styles morph unexpectedly. A fluid and lucid statement. Favorite track: Evil Sky.

klBlk Raw, pummeling. Damn good. Favorite track: Evil Sky.

Atanamar Sunyata A choked, churning vomitorium of extremity. Slays in all directions, trampling heedlessly through death, crust, grind, and speed metal alike. Make no mistake, this is a gorgeously ugly affair, reeking of the lawless abandon of a band like Revenge while channeling the efficacy of a youthful Trey Azagthoth.

about

"Fast beats and pummeling riffs from the arsehole of the world": this is how New Zealand's PRISONER OF WAR describes their war-ravaged assault, and IRON BONEHEAD PRODUCTIONS is proud to present the band's debut mini-album, Rot, to be released on CD and 12" vinyl formats. Influenced by such classics as Altars of Madness, Consuming Impulse, and Mental Funeral, PRISONER OF WAR was founded by vocalist/bassist Charred Remains, guitarist Typhoid Filth, and drummer MG-42 in Auckland in 2013. The power-trio's sound deals exclusively in high-octane thrash tempos, morbidly dripping sewer riffs, militant vocals, and chaotic soloing.

PRISONER OF WAR self-produced an initial four-song demo entitled Shit-filled Pit of Hell in 2014, and in 2015, they played a small handful of shows alongside such legendary Australasian acts as Sinistrous Diabolous, Impetuous Ritual, Temple Nightside, Ulcerate, Skuldom, Vesicant, Trepanation, and Malevolence. After a sudden burst of songwriting in 2015, PRISONER OF WAR tracked the next batch of songs live in one afternoon, with extra guitar parts and vocals overdubbed subsequently. This material would make up the Rot EP and would see a significant step forward in songwriting, with more ambitious arrangements and a more cohesive production style.

All PRISONER OF WAR members have a strong interest in the World Wars, with the lyrics and vision of the band reflecting this. PRISONER OF WAR choose to forego any occult, esoteric, or philosophical themes and instead deal exclusively with the brutal and historically accurate realities of a battle. Rot is a visceral, vicious reflection of this, detonating with deadly intent and annihilating the listener in five swift tracks. The march has just started...

This is the most personally appealing piece of music I have run into in a long time - from the beautiful lyrics and art and the crushing, non pretentious gorgeous heavy music. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, crushing - are there are other words? Gorgeous, exquisite.... sock4never

PSA: if there was an album you heard a couple years ago and thought it was ok, listen to it again and you might love it. That's what happened to me with this album. I cannot fathom why it didn't stick with me back then. Same thing happened with Decoherence's Unitarity for that matter. Matten
