Biography:
Pestifer are a death metal band founded by twins Adrien Gustin (Bass) and
Phil Gustin (Drums).
2012
“The band started the year of 2012 with a second European Tour (with
Krisiun, Malevolent Creation and Vital Remains). After this great experience, Pestifer decided to focus on a new
album. During that time, they played a few gigs with bands like Aborted, Benighted
and Vile...
2013
The new album was recorded and mixed by Jeremy Stoz. This time,
Victor Bullok (Pestilence, Obscura, Triptykon) took care of the mastering. The
band got a deal with Great Dane
Records. The quintet played few gigs in Belgium, Luxembourg and France and
shared the stage with Exhumed (in Lille) and Channel Zero (in Flemalle) a few
weeks before the tragic death of their drummer. During September, Pestifer ran a new European tour with
Nile, ex deo and Svart Crown. They played 13 gigs across England, Scotland,
Ireland, Wales, France, Germany, Belgium and Netherlands”

Witness of the Loss
Mostly the way to a man’s stomach is through his delightful taste buds,
however for me – I feed on a frenzy of death metal! – and this track leaves me
well satisfied, rubbing my belly for a repeat course! The hostile essences will
engulf and swallow you whole whilst the vocal insurgence rabidly captures the
moment to a barrage of drums and rampaging riffs that are more than keen to
whet the hungry appetite!

Exiled to the Abyss
Is rather gnarly in its technical onslaught as it batters and
bruises with intent to inflict its rhythmic encounters straight and directly to
the aural matter! It energetically protrudes through an evil path of madness,
using sculptured stringed arrangements and gruesome vocal endeavour.

Sarcophaga
Sounding like someone is possessed by a demon, ebbing and flowing
into a maelstrom of pure demonic madness, as I of course devilishly expected! It
jangles vehemently through its forked tongue tempered by a dark potent
encounter.
Tree of Thorns
The twisted adventure continues uniting its passion in a scathing
and resourceful energy that sonically teases in a menacing fury. The death
defying swagger of rhythmic provocation swirls around the brawling beats and
harsh riffs a plenty.
Abominations
Crafted by yet more creative ingenuity that stomps through with
large bloody footprints. Its fast paced melee of beats intimidate as they
batter their way into the audial canal in an impressive feat of turbulence. The
antagonistic vocal content is simply mesmerising.
_____________________________________________________________
Seductive and with certain provocative grooves that ooze with muscle bound intensity and grow ever succulent with each bite of its gnashing teeth!

Within the Void
Awakens its bloodshot eyes in an enticing and overwhelming power struggle
to capture its audience – audience you have no chance here – just give up and
succumb to its mastery! The vocals paint a powerful picture whilst the
accompanying music creates an ambient persuasion of fiercely contagious melody.
The Earthling Chronicles
With rhythms framing an evil swagger of creative presence this track
engages on all levels and climbs to its peak and then slightly drops leaving
you in a frustrated frame of mind but don’t worry the guitars will fulfill your
every whim.
Orbital Failure
Plenty of dark and demonic ambiance can be felt through-out this muscular
structure which shows the bands diversity to be ever changing. It draws
attention to its sinister gait with mesmerizing beauty and strong qualities.
Positronic Symphony
Let the frenzy continue right up to the very end of this savage
musical offering. Its slower moments serve to be the predatory force held
within its mighty structure of monumental wickedness! The guitars will have you
salivating alone as they compel with an intense and sinister ambiance that is
more than just boisterous, but blitzing!
Summary
This album is a feast for hungry ears – its table literally brims
with the finest death metal dishes for ravenous metal heads! Its metal treats are irresistible, so much so
you will be going back for seconds!
The tracks are creative and highly engaging on all levels, with
choppy riffs helped along with meaty bass hooks!
Seductive and with certain provocative grooves that ooze with muscle
bound intensity and grow ever succulent with each bite of its gnashing teeth!
Most definitely a savage and carnivorous portion with lashings of
lingering addiction fuelling with a severe and corrosive appeal.
