Gatecreeper’s third full-length sees the Arizona death metal specialists—vocalist Chase H. Mason, guitarists Eric Wagner and Israel Garza, drummer Metal Matt Arrebollo and bassist Alex Brown—carving out their own path. The band’s first album for Nuclear Blast is more concise, melodic, and memorable than anything they’ve done in the past. “We refined the song structures,” Mason says. “We’re getting better at what we do.” <h2> UNDEATH</h2>(<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://undeathmetal.com/">website</a> / <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://undeath.bandcamp.com/">bandcamp</a> / <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.facebook.com/undeathNY/">facebook</a> / <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/undeathny/">instagram</a>)—The dead walk again! New York-based Undeath have returned from their mutilated tomb to horrify and dominate death metal’s insatiable masses once again. Their blessedly sick new album, It’s Time... To Rise from the Grave, shows the reconfigured quintet—Kyle Beam (guitars), Alexander Jones (vocals), Tommy Wall (bass), Jared Welch (guitars) and Matt Browning (drums)—have retained their mind-infecting sonic savagery but weren’t satisfied in their pursuit to improve it through wicked (yet studied) reformulation. Certainly, Undeath’s 2021 Decibel flexi, Diemented Dissection, paved the way, but it’s tracks like “Fiend for Corpses,” “Rise from the Grave,” and “The Funeral Within” that display Undeath’s terrifyingly insane trajectory. It’s Time... To Rise from the Grave isn’t just an early contender for death metal album of 2022—it’s destined to be a modern-day classic. <h2> JARHEAD FERTILIZER</h2>(<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://jarheadfertilizeroc.bandcamp.com/">bandcamp</a> / <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/jarhead_fertilizer/">instagram</a>)—“Jarhead Fertilizer’s Carceral Warfare is a solid, brutal, groove-laden death metal album with some excellent songs, as well as some that can be a little one-speed. There are some very obvious musical steps forward from the band since their previous album, Product of My Environment, released in 2021. With more technically aggressive songs, and a continued focus on the American penal system, Jarhead Fertilizer have one-upped themselves in regards to atmosphere, however, there are some moments of ‘sameness’ that their previous album seemed to avoid due to the slightly shorter run time of the songs and the overall album.” - Everything Noise<h2> FINAL GASP</h2>(<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://finalgasp.bandcamp.com/">bandcamp</a> / <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.facebook.com/p/Final-Gasp-100063558425787/">facebook</a> / <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.instagram.com/final_gasp/">instagram</a>)—Boston based deathrock dealers.
