| KALUMAN (Bandung Death Metal) on Bali tour, September 2015 |
Kaluman (Bandung Death Metal) - Kaluman CD (2014) (Sevared Records)
Formed by members of Jasad, Bleeding Corpse and Turbidity, Kaluman
offers their self-titled debut f***ing album including nine songs (one
instrumental) and lasting about 40 f***ing minutes! The band performs a
Brutal Death F***ing Metal with a big Death Metal side and we can hear
some influences from bands like Dying Fetus or their compatriots Absolute
Defiance! Kharisma Kamal Nurdin
(Vocals), Ferli Suferli (Guitar), Daniel Lesmana (Guitar), Adrian Fauzan
Rahman (Bass), Asep Rosidin (Drums) are the legendary quintet of
Kaluman and doing a good f***ing job on several aspects of their f***ing
brutal musick! The production of Kaluman is f***ing great, the mixing
is f***ing excellent perhaps less on the side of drums but still not
unbearable, totally f***ing killer sound with a very present bass making
it a f***ing heavy recording and sounding like a f***ing ton of
dynamite! Musically, Kaluman is still f***ing good with a vocals well
done, maybe a bit redundant but still f***ing enjoyable, The bass and
guitars riffs are very f***ing good at several parts but can be very
f***ing annoying and repetitive in many other places and the drums in
general is f***ing great at all levels! In my opinion, the songs would
have been much f***ing better by cutting off half the time thus
eliminating f***ing repetitive, generic and boring moments, but we can
also find a big number of great f***ing parts. The two greatest songs already appeared on their demo 2012: "Altar Prostitusi" and
"Membusuk Menjadi Sampah" which are f***ing enjoyable in their entirety!
Kaluman is recommended for the real passionate in death metal only because
for the others it's not a disk to put as priority due to its big lack of
brutality! Not Bad F***ing Release! 5/10. [This review was first published by Andrew Sick of Sick Reviews and is used here with his kind permission. Note that Kaluman released its second album The Anthem of Blasphemy on 5 January 2016 via Sevared Records.]
