Tod
Huetet Uebel /POR/ – Malicia 23 04 2016
I will now present the material of another new Portuguese band in the next few lines. Tod Huetet Uebel duo conceived in 2012 and already a year later they recorded their debut EP titled:”Morte e Caos”. Probably both of them (Daniel C – composer and Marcos M – singer) were active before at home or in other bands, because they plays together very well In addition, some uniqueness is also reflected in their creation. Even though I didn't heard their EP until now and three years passed since.
The newly released tape material previously released on CD by Caverna Abismal Records. The 2015 "Malice" contains seven songs without a title, is only marked with Roman numerals. The album starts with acoustic introduction, that full out into bombastic Black Metal. The real themes are lost in the fast and the songs become chaotic very often, but the themes are sufficiently unique.
The overwhelming songs can be complete with Marcos’ unbelievable, crazy screams. There is a kind of one-dimensional because of the many fast parts, but glancing behind the songs, death and misanthropy split their wings, so much so that I could not even imagine that I listen it in companies or even on live shows.(except in a little cavern).
The creation of Death Guards Evil (translated from German) can not be said as traditional although no doubt that Black Metal is basic pillars.
Modern and evil, desolate,but full of tangled dreams, that may be associated to the emerging hordes of present days. Thanx to Daniel’ recording, mixing and mastering, the sound is appropriate. Nothing is too far in front or in the background.
If someone wants some outstanding work, search in the depth of underground. They found me and I found them. Thanks for the Caverna Abismal Records that introduced me to the THU manifestation. Hail Khaos!
