Overthrow were a death metal band from Argentina. They formed in 1991 and released 3 demos and 2 splits throughout the 90's.
This self titled demo is 1/3rd intros and 2/3rds actualy music, but if you can get through that you'll find some pretty cool mostly mid tempo down tuned death metal. The length is pretty ideal, doesn't overstay its welcome nor has chance to try to do so much it fucks everything up. The vocals are low as fuck with some wraith-like higher bits (but never high screeches), the drums and guitars are always in good sync, beefy and, even if they don't do anything new, on point with the delivery. I think I'll have to look for Overthrow's other demos!
Tracklist:
00:00 - Eternal
01:07 - Devil's Eyes
04:03 - Putrefaction
04:29 - Conquer de Fear

![Beyond Belief - Stranded [Full Demo - 1992]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/IST8I-wzccc/mqdefault.jpg "Beyond Belief - Stranded [Full Demo - 1992]
Beyond Belief were a Dutch death/doom metal band, and a classic one at that too! Im a fan of their debut album, Towards the Diabolical Experiment, and I was very surprised to see they still dont have their full discography up on youtube. They formed in 1986 but, due to members being in and out the band all the time, disagreements and whatnot, they didnt record anything until 1991. This demo youre listening to right now is their second one.
Slow is the word here! Just slow and doomy all the way through the demo. It creates a nice obscure atmosphere, truly cemetery music. The production is really nice for a demo too, damn. Its really clean and polished (but not squeaky clean, of course, theres still the grit and much we all love around here). The vocals also have some effects layered, which I personally like a bunch, dude sounds like cookie monster now.
Tracklist:
00:00 - Intro
00:45 - Godforsaken
07:09 - Stranded
12:49 - Silent Are the Holy

![Xymonthra - Demo 94 [Full Demo - 1994]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/JAbelqQHONw/mqdefault.jpg "Xymonthra - Demo 94 [Full Demo - 1994]
Xymonthra were a Swedish technical death metal band. Formed in 1991, they released 3 demos under Xymonthra, this one being possibly their last before they changed name to Macrocosmic Emotions in 1994.
There isnt much to say about this demo if you ask me. Althought I wasnt able to track down any artwork for the video (the logo you see was taken from their previous demo), the quality isnt as shitty as I would expect from something in this situation. Its not super techy like tech death would become in the late 90s, really shows how a genre can progress. Essentially, this is death metal with some technical/unusual riffs here and there, not as straight foward as the average release from back in the day.
Tracklist:
00:00 - Beyond Erroneous Thoughts
02:53 - Observe Every Counterfeit Considerateness
08:34 - Ulterior
18:57 - Valetudinarian

Dehuman were an Australian brutal death metal band. Active from 1995 to 2001, they released 2 demos, one in 1996 and this one in 2000. Later on, these were compiled and released as the Return of the Lifeless compilation, in 2019.
Honestly, theres not much to say about this band - its your average late 90s broots, hits the right spots and for 40 mins of runtime its not a complete chore to get through. Maybe its just for die hard fans of the genre since it really doesnt bring anything new to the table. But hey, if I didnt like it I wouldnt have uploaded it!

Decay were a Greek death metal band, formed in 1991... and thats about all the information thats out there about this band. They released this single track in 1992 and apparently nothing else. This video is a contender to the shortest full demo Ive ever uploaded (I think it wins tbh).
About the music, there is only so much that can be said about a single track. Slower paced death metal with some death/doom influences, probably Cianide or Mythic (although its unlikely since they were overseas, idk if their 1992 releases would reach Greece within a year). Many guitar screeches and big sounding music towards the end.
Tracklist:
00:00 - Ceremonial Torture

![Nigromancia - Hidden Rituals [Full EP - 2021]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/KRp-tmYsNlA/mqdefault.jpg "Nigromancia - Hidden Rituals [Full EP - 2021]
Hidden Rituals is Nigromancias debut conjuration, a 25min long mad thrashing death piece straight out of Chile.
After I uploaded both Morbid Cruetly and Putrid Evocation, Burning Coffin Recs showed me this band that I absolutely overlooked when their EP came out. Chilean death metal never disappoints, and Nigromancia captures that unmistakably south american feeling. The songs are concise and straight to the point, no bull shit all riffs. The unmatched aggression of Chilean metal reeks from this one. The only slow moments that you find in their music are there to build up the crushing riff barrages that come right afterwards.
Dont do it like me, dont sleep on this band, they might just have some AOTY material on hold....
Tracklist:
00:00 - Necromancy
03:50 - Vomiting Death
07:41 - Hidden Rituals
10:50 - Only Death Is Real
14:30 - Voices from the Underworld
18:40 - Flame of Death

Consecration were a short lived Hungarian band. In the 18mins you are about to listen to, they will certainly demolish you with fast low-end ridden riffs and a somewhat Death/Doom influence that pops up sometimes.
This demo really grew on me since I first listened to it, its a shame the band had to split-up because I wouldve loved a 32min long LP that sounded just like the last two tracks.
Tracklist:
00:00 - Vágyódás

Mouseleum were a Turkish death metal band. Formed in 1990, this demo is the only thing the band has ever put out.
The feature that stands out the most in this demo is how sloppy it is. Definitely sounds like something that the 3 band members came up with during a drunk chat and decided to record. There are credits for a drummer, but it sounds so much like a drum machine is being used. I dont know, its weird early 90s material, god knows what the hell they were doing back then.

![Anger - No Compromise [Full EP - 1995]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/M2-Y9XwY-yc/mqdefault.jpg "Anger - No Compromise [Full EP - 1995]
Anger, from Italy, played good old death metal from 1991 to 1995 (we dont talk about the industrial metal album from 2002). They released 2 demos and this EP before disbanding.
You ever wondered how a vocalist thats always running out of breath sounds like? Well, here it is. Feels like the dude just barely gets the lines out and it sounds awesome. Their music kinda angsty sometimes, but Ill be damned if it aint good! The snare is super clangy, like youre hitting a pot with a stick sometimes. The leads between riffs are super dynamic (and even the main riffs too sometimes), its like they really wanted to use like 6 riffs per song but couldnt find a way to make them work out in full so they just segmented them and put them all in a section.
I first listened to this EP a couple of years ago, and recently wanted to revisit it when I realised it wasnt on youtube anymore! Really solid EP, it deserves to be out here....
Tracklist:
00:00 - Anger

![Vale of Tears - Elégia [Full Demo - 1995]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/M9TWOZUdCfY/mqdefault.jpg "Vale of Tears - Elégia [Full Demo - 1995]
Vale of Tears were an Hungarian doom/death metal band. The band was only active from 1993 to 1996, having only released this demo.
Front and foremost, I think Vale of Tears are a doom metal band. There are more sombre and solemn moments in this demo more than anything else. That and the vocals. Those sure are some vocals. I find them odd but in a positive way. Sometimes the band pumps up the intensity and some death shows up, but you never really hear any growls or down-tuned low IQ riffs.
Definitely an interesting demo and something different to break the monotony of only sick riffs we have here in the channel.

Warfare is the 2nd full length produced by the one-man project Shellshock.
You see some war themed album and you already know its wearing its influences on its sleeves. You know you can expect some beefy Bolt Thrower worship from this. You take that and join it with a modern style production and that great campy feeling you can only get with garage bands and youll find Shellshocks sound.
