Album Review: Pazuzu – Revenant Of Blasphemies (Dunkelheit Produktionen)

Coming from the scorching land of Costa Rica and influenced by the movie with the same name and also by bands such as Cianide, Winter and Decomposed comes Doom Death metal band Pazuzu. Presenting for the very first time their 2017 debut demo “Revenant of Blasphemies” on vinyl and CD.

Originally released on limited edition tape and cd by Psychogrind Records, this obscure recording immerses the avid listener into the corridors of stench, decay and the uselessness of the Christian dogma and shows the imminent fate of the bastard mankind at the hands of a failed God and the welcoming of Death as the only possible fate to come…

Bookended by an intro and outro of acoustic guitar melody comes 3 tracks of blasphemous anger and fury. Pazuzu pull absolutely no punches in ensuring you know just who and what their vitriol is aimed at. The Christian religion is their target and with a thick and brutal combination of death and doom, they hit their target with force.

Retaining the rawness of the demo tag while having an impressive remastered quality to it, this is a slice of Pazuzu history. One that is as thrilling in its dark and twisted outlook as you could possibly hope. The howls that emanate from the guitars, the sound of nails being hammered into flesh via the drums and the demonic muttering of the vocals make for an iconic listen.
