GENRE: Death metal
COUNTRY: New Zealand
FORMAT: CD
LABEL: The Flood Records
YEAR: 2006

RATING: 7/10
REVIEWED BY: PSL

I reviewed The Coming of Genocide demo from the New Zealand based death metal band Ulcerate in 2004. I liked it a lot back then and I find the demo just as good today as I did in 2004.

It's now been re-released by the Italian label The Flood Records and with good reason I'd say. Besides the four songs originally on the demo the four tracks from Demo 2003 has also been included.

Musically Ulcerate is working in the same territory as Suffocation, Immolation and Deeds of Flesh. But the band isn't just a copy of the aforementioned bands. However the Immolation inspiration are noticeable now and then, like on "Second Death".

Ulcerate clearly know how to write some good songs. The band understands to vary things and keep it interesting by adding lots changes in the music. Moreover Ulcerate also know the importance of having a solo here and there. No doubt these New Zealanders are good at what they do.

The sound is thick and potent. You don't notice that the CD is a compilation of demo material. The CD version of The Coming of Genocide is a nice appetizer to what we can expect on the full-length debut Of Fracture and Failure.
