Terrific! I'm not in Bangalore right now but I do keep dropping by frequently so gimme your number (email to guitarsmash1981@gmail.com) and we'll catch up with some brewskis and fawn over the metal of death (sic), haha!

Niiice! How good are Corpus Mortale? I've been meaning to check them out for a while now. Also, how does Chapters of Repugnance hold up against Psalms of the Moribund?

Sure thing da. I'll probably be going sometime later this week so I'll text you if I find it.

Corpus Mortale are a poor man's Iniquity, having members from that band too. I haven't heard this one yet (it's been out for two years already), but 'With Lewd Demeanor' is a very classy and smooth Death Metal record.

Dude, I've been hyping up Chapters Of Repugnance every chance I get. I liked Psalms for what it was but I was mostly apathetic towards it. Liked it on occasions, couldn't stand it on others. This thing though...it's addictive. There's a review on Choksi's site which describes it beautifully. Inspite of the slams and breakdowns, which are done very well here to be honest, and the modern br00tality aspect, it sinks its teeth into you like any record from the early 90s would. And since it's so short, it is made to order for repeat listens. I like it, even love it..I'm not so sure about you, knowing your kvlt trackrecord. :P
