Topic: Amduscias


In the News (Tue 21 May 13)

  
  Daily Vault - September 19, 1999
And while the band has learned the lessons of the music well from their predecessors in Europe and Asia (where this genre seems to be more alive), they need to add one more thing to the mix before they're ready to strike: some level of originality.
Amduscias needs to find their own unique niche in an already-crowded genre to stand out.
Until then, Amduscias is an album that shows a young band trying to find their foothold, and not doing anything spectacular to draw attention to themselves.

Amduscias start to show signs of life with "Hell On Earth" which distinguishes the band as at least having some potential.

Amduscias is Ryuichi on bass and vocals, Tomoya on guitars, and Mike I on drums.

 Review 0544   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-02)
Amduscias is the name of the fifth CD released by the experimental label Zenflesh and that, once again means a walk through the riskiest of proposals in sonic research.
In the album, with 21 themes, a great amount of saturated sounds is reflected, even with melodies, capable of creating disturbing environments.
Also, two of the themes that could be taken as non-experimental ones turn out to be really impressive: "Drowing" and "Antichton", whose presence in the equator of the work breaks in some instants with its experimental homogeneity.

He is a Duke Great and Strong, appearing at first like a Unicorn, but at the request of the Exorcist he standeth before him in Human Shape, causing Trump ets, and all manner of Musical Instruments to be heard, but not soon or immediately.
Amduscias, another grand duke, commanded 29 legions, and was known, strangely enough, for making terribly disturbing music.
He was usually depicted as human in form, except for his head, which was that of a unicorn.

 Temple Of Baal   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-02)
First considered as the chief general of the infernal armies, Baal became, under the pen of the XVII century puritan writers, an anti-god, in other words a new personification of Satan.
The band TEMPLE OF BAAL was created in the begining of the year XXXIII A.S. by Amduscias, to go back to the very first meaning of Black Metal : Crude, Evil, Satanic music.
Amduscias handled all the instruments except the drums, recorded with a drum machine.

 Ink 19 :: Amduscias
Sure, "emotion" may sound like a namby-pamby term in the context of, arguably, the most extreme form of music, but at the end of the day, something more is needed to extend such fare beyond mere blastbeats, fuzz, and screams.
One such record that accomplishes that is Amduscias' eponymous debut.
Clocking in at almost a half-hour, Amduscias 's six songs ensnare the soul in a grimy, fl cloud, the Japanese trio thoroughly mesmerizing with cyclic tremeloed riffs and tornado tempos, both of which tinker with the trance by shifting oh-so-subtly.

 Album Reviews - September 1999
Black metal seems to be thriving more than ever, with a slew of new releases this year from both veteran acts and newcomers.
Amduscias, a Japanese trio, join the fray with this six-song debut and hold their own, but do little more.
The style of Amduscias is pretty typical Nordic fl metal, with high-speed melodic riffing, grim vocals and bone-rattling drumming.

 Temple Of Baal
was consecrated in middle 1998 by Amduscias, to return to debut 90's Black Metal, musically and spiritually.
Considering first to act as a one-man band, Amduscias finally conjured three demons, MKM (Vox-ANTAEUS), Arkdaemonn (Atomic Subnoize-DEVIANT), and Herr Rikk (Hellhammers-ex PENUMBRA) so as to spread the Devil's message giving live ceremonies.
A few months after, the first official release was spawned, the infamous "Satanas Lux Solis" rehearsal tape.

 Remnants of Reason Heavy Metal Record Review Page for Issue 3   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-02)
Metal Blade seems to have the exclusive distribution rights to all of the Blackend stuff in the states, which is fortunate for us, even if we do end up getting these albums a couple years after their initial release.
Well, for some albums, Amduscias being one of them, the sound can seem a tad dated, this E.P. sounding like standard norse fl metal circa '97.
Yeah, that's only couple of years, but as metal styles shift so rapidly, to stay on the cutting edge, especially insomething as volatile as fl metal, things have to sound fresh.

 MUSIC REVIEWS   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-02)
Amduscias have the potential to be a remarkable band.
The bass is pretty much completely buried in the mix throughout the first track, "The Dragon Domination," and as a result is of little consequence.
The incessant blasting with little or no regard for the music being laid above it all throughout the opening track gets to be very overbearing.
