Farewell EP, “Coffin Born”, Out Now On Metal Blade Records

“In the first place, we just love this song,” the band elaborates. “It’s from the movie Kung Fury which absolutely everyone must watch, because it’s a fucking masterpiece and this song is probably the best performance of Hasselhoff ever. We asked our friends in Lord Of The Lost if they would like to join us for this song because we felt like it needed some extra glitter. We think it turned out amazing! Two bands from Hamburg from different genres united in an unexpected cover song. Super-fun project and quite outside the box for a death metal band.“

“We’ve accomplished more than we have ever imagined in our wildest dreams,” reflects the band on their final release. “We played with fantastic bands, played super-cool festivals, and released four albums and two EPs of which we are extremely proud. We were blessed with great and loyal fans and managed to stay a consistent lineup throughout our whole career. But after grinding for more than a decade and dedicating so much time and energy to this band, we feel like it’s time to move on to other projects. We wanted to end this band like we started – as very good friends. We started with an EP and we end it with an EP. It just feels right to do this now, while we still have the power to deliver a great farewell performance as well in the studio as on stage.“

Since their 2015 debut EP Corrosive Revelation, each release has hoisted the Hamburg quintet further up the death metal mountain, with Mount Carcass (2021) and Global Worming (2023) receiving widespread acclaim.

Produced by the band with drums engineered by Eike Freese (Deep Purple, Alice Cooper, Helloween), Coffin Born stands as ENDSEEKER‘s swan song, shaped by the intense bond of a lineup that remained together throughout their whole career.

Coffin Born is out now on digipak CD (w/ 12-page booklet) and digital formats as well as vinyl in the following color variants:

180g black (EU)

“Musically, the nearly 23-minute Coffin Born follows seamlessly in the footsteps of Global Warming (2023), delivering that signature low-end HM-2 grind, snarling aggression, and captivating melodic passages across varying tempos…” – Metal Hammer

“…five angry, crusty songs that feel like a pummeling…” – Metal Injection

“…one last powerful statement… Driven by that quintessential HM-2 sound, the hardcore/crust-infused ‘Enemies Of Peace’ ruthlessly steamrolls over any fascists, while the Hamburg quintet continues to champion the old-school Swedish sound with expert impact on mid-tempo tracks like ‘No After. No Before…’” – Rock Hard

“ENDSEEKER doesn’t do anything that others haven’t done before, but the instrument handling, the sound, the mixing and the compositions are so impressive that the miss will be even greater when the band retires later this year…” – Metalized

“‘Enemies Of Peace’ conjures images of tanks cresting the hill, but you’re in the valley and doomed. …Witness ‘No After. No Before,’ where off-time rhythms and riffs careen into the title track, sirens and slaughter surrounding your twitching, pleading forms. ‘Life Breeds Death’ grants no reprieve, and a David Hasselhoff cover drives the final nail into Coffin Born. ENDSEEKER lived hard and now dies the same way – on its own terms.” – Rebel Extravaganza

“Expect four original songs plus an outside the box cover song featuring guests from the local Hamburg heavy music scene – going out as aggressive and energetic as they came into the movement over 12 years before.” – Dead Rhetoric

Album Review: Nunslaughter – Satanic Chaos Legions

Reviewed by Eric Clifford

Regardless of anything else you might accuse Nunslaughter of, one thing they definitely aren’t doing is fucking about. Their brand of abundantly thrashy black/death has been pulverising neck vertebrae since the late 80’s, and at this point they’ve clearly decided that no amount of subtlety or nuance will ever substitute just kicking the shit out of you. This isn’t music intended to prompt deep intellectual engagement. They’re not trying to get you to use your brain – they’re trying to kick it clean out your skull.

It would be reductive and pithy to say that Nunslaughter recycle too many Slayer riffs, but it also wouldn’t be wholly inaccurate. You’ll know whether you’ll like this just by asking yourself whether you like Nunslaughter. I find that it’s often passion that carries stuff like this, a need to feel that the band believe in it for you yourself to believe in it. To that end, “Satanic Chaos Legions” and “Jesus Fucking Dies” launch out the starting blocks bristling with deeply unethical weaponry at breakneck speeds, red froth billowing between the yellowed fangs of raw OSDM riffs, percussion like a fusillade and vocalist Don of the Dead yelling like he never liked his vocal chords anyway. It’s music for people who think that “innocent bystander” is shorthand for “someone who should’ve gotten the fuck out the way”, with tracks like “Lucifer the Light” skydiving in at you with an apoplectic storm of Repulsion riffs and a relentless kick-snare beat that feels less like drumming and more like your eardrums are being fracked. They know when to herald the end times too – observe with trembling “Heavenless”, the crumbling death-doom of Asphyx pouring from it in putrid runnels.

This isn’t exactly long form music; no tracks stretch over four minutes with a good chunk being below two. Berserker energy seizes much of it, clamping jump leads to it’s adrenaline glands and firing a million volts through them a minute. Feverish grindcore zeal from “Die Your Own Death” floors the accelerator on an Abrams tank and mulches the congregation below its treads. Yet always comes that dogged sense of dejá fu – the feeling that you’ve had your arse kicked like this before. Yes, it’s speedy and aggressive, but even by its own standards some tracks feel to be much more honed than their comrades do. “Listen to the Lies” is very short and substantially a sample – it’s vicious, but so is everything else, and it feels somewhat throwaway by comparison.

Some of the more hardcore influenced songs leave me a little on the cold side – could be more of a personal thing (it almost definitely is) but uniformly the more death/thrash a track was the greater I liked it. So momentary incidences of filler and genre stylistic choices that I’m not as warm to did leash my enthusiasm a bit – perhaps they’ll count less against it for you though. I do still feel that the band could do with spreading their charred wings a little – they play things about as safe as an album that feels to be force-feeding you bleach ever can – and the occasional switch up in say, time signature or lobbing in a couple more solos would be welcome. A few more toys in the torture chamber, y’know? But equally…I mean it’s fuckin’ Nunslaughter man. Every time I start to criticise them I get the unnerving sense that Satan stands at my shoulder, shaking his head and dreaming up inventive new torments to visit upon my hapless form as revenge for my being a wuss.

Again, it comes down to something I said earlier: You’ll know whether you’ll like this just by asking yourself whether you like Nunslaughter. I first got into them on their “Angelic Dread” album in 2014 – and I like this new one for much the same reasons that I like that one. The flipside contention that they’ve not really changed or evolved since then would be mean even if there would be a kernel of truth to it, but there’s no arguing with the results – Nunslaughter are doing this with the fire and venom lesser bands can only dream of. Each chord smacks into you like an axeblow, cleaving ravines through the milling corpse-pyre smog. It is metal as all fuck, and if Black, Death or Thrash stir any degree of fondness in you, then you should shoot this into your earholes immediately.

Yes, Nate Amos released Holo Boy in December and Box For Buddy, Box For Star (Super Deluxe) in April. Yes, his band Water From Your Eyes has been touring with Hayley Williams for the past few months. But the indie rocker simply finds time to make new music. We sort of knew it was coming when, last month, he signed to Matador and announced a fall tour. But it’s still quite staggering. The Singer In My Band arrives this fall, and today we have the amazing lead single “Billy Came Back.”
