REVIEWS
No trends, no folk, no art, no beauty. Just pure fucking death and chaos.
That’s how Canadian black metal duo Evil Wrath describe their latest album and nothing could be closer to the
truth than that savage snarling declaration, smacking the proverbial nail on the head with a hateful hammer.
True old school black metal practitioners of the genre in its purest and finest form Evil Wrath are the modern day
epitome of the bands who spawned the scene.
Firstly I will state that I personally am a major fan and massive admirer of the pure black mayhem birthed by Evil
Wrath, they create black metal exactly how it should be and exactly how I like it, fast, hard, uncompromising
and totally undiluted, brimming with misanthropic hatred. As they are not the most prolific of acts in existence a
new recording of any description from them always triggers much excitement and anticipation in me and should
do in all dedicated fanatics of raw unbridled black metal hostility as well. It is very easy to build ones
expectations up to optimum levels when discovering a particular band  has a new release pending and then
consequentially being disappointed or disillusioned by the eventual outcome so as a result I generally try not to
do so but instead attempt to perceive things unbiased or unclouded by past attempts. However with my view
that Evil Wrath are one of the best (if not the best) true raw BM exponents from the Canada region active today
it is difficult not to carry some sort of expectations into an unveiling of this new platter of antihuman blasphemy.
Suffice to say any fears that the gritty blackened hellsound cultivated on precursor album ’Défaillance
Monumentale’ has softened any are groundless, all reasonable expectations of this follow up ‘Chaotical Invasion’
are exceeded.
‘Chaotical Invasion’ is just under three quarters of an hour of sheer spite dealt out in an unrelenting manner by
the usual suspects Nekros on vocals, Morbid on guitars, bass and backing vocals and Zvord the standard session
drummer back behind the kit again. There is a forty nine second intro section of dark ambiance and swelling
stormy sound to introduce all to the opus and then ‘Les Tenebres De La Conscience’ rushes in like a maddened
horde of psychotic rats bringing the Black Plague.
Undulating on a black metal punk riff a la Darkthrone or older Carpathian Forest that knots its simple but cuttingly
effective pattern around militant drums ‘Les tenebres De La Conscience’ is dirty primeval stuff with no
unnecessary frills and superfluous watered down elements. Thirty seconds in and the harsh grate of Nekros
signals a descent into even blacker terrain as all the instrumentation increases in intensity with a blitzkrieg of
tremolo joining the fray and a doubling up of furious drums including a hefty dose of prominent cymbal clashes.
With an array of caustic shrieks, throaty snarls and harsh growls recalling the pioneers and genre forefathers
razoring through irresistible streams of riffing and pronounced battery rhythms it isn’t completely mind numbingly
lightning fast but instead moves with an excellent groove and solid galloping pace. Following this hate filled and
stripped back exhibition of naked BM aggression is the powerful ‘Death Symptom’ which anybody familiar with the
works of Evil Wrath will know was one of two tracks they contributed to their split CD with Sweden’s long
standing Pagan Rites.
The albums crowning glory is the virulent and epic title track ‘Chaotical Invasion’ which at eight and a half minutes
long eclipses the average track running time of five thirty. An evil humming riff heavy with sinewy bass opens up
this monster, an awesome and sinister lower ended piece throbbing over a thunderous roll of battery prior to the
unleashing of squalling tremolo ice and the hellish vocal abrasion delivered in the scathing tones of Nekros.
Proudly antihuman and anti life Evil Wrath have lost none of their abhorrence for humanity and still find
multitudes of inspiration within themes of that nature so consequently the lyrical explorations thriving here relate
to misanthropy, extermination of mankind, derision and scorn for human life. Statements of eternal suffering and
eras of terror are freely rasped out and while may bands would include lines such as “cutting your flesh, burning
your soul, fuck off and die” in a misguided attempt to be perceived as grim or kvlt or whatever trendy term is
currently doing the rounds Evil Wrath are painfully genuine with their intent.
One gets the message loud and clear that when humanity inevitably fucks itself over to the point of eradication
nobody would be happier than the Canadian war ensemble right here. ‘Chaotical Invasion’ is loaded with harsh
antihuman sentiments and its packed with seething instrumentation to match. For such a relatively lengthy
number it doesn’t abate its fury one iota despite a couple of tempo shifts where wonderfully dark thrashy riffs
temporarily wrestle control away from the pitch black walls of ugly confrontational mayhem.
The vast majority of the album is fairly speedy in velocity though not wholly; some changes and application of
the brakes does exist in certain areas.
The intro to ‘Feeding The Flames’ eschews an immediate plummet into storming dark chaotic realms in preference
of sharply stated chords attached to wicked curving bends and premeditated drums and ‘La Sphere Malsaine’
even includes the surprising addition of a lead break while ‘Hell Marches To War’ also opts for a measure of
control in its introductory phases, coming across almost traditional heavy metal in style. This approach is then
alternated with the standard black metal blasts where war minded lyrics spew unholy hatred and visions of
apocalypse with the vehement front man exhaling battle cries, references to rivers of blood and cleansing the
world of scum.
Much of Evil Wraths earlier output was written entirely in French and whilst several of these tracks here still are
in that language most of it is delivered in English, and going by the hateful recurring themes it is easy enough to
decipher that the ones sung in French cover similar scornful territory. ‘Chaotical Invasion’ is a stormtrooping
detonation of fearsome venomous antagonism and marks a very welcome return to recording for Evil Wrath.  
There are a myriad of black metal acts surfacing in Canada these days in all manner of styles and sub genres but
when it comes to pure old school proper black metal Evil Wrath are head and shoulders above most else.

Imagine yourself back into the nineties black metal scene. Two guys in corpsepaint doing all the music in this
band. Dirty, raw production was the name of the game with blastbeats and just enough punk groove to keep
fans interested. Bring anything to mind? If anyone reading this said "Darkthrone," then you're right! To listen to
Evil Wrath's "Chaotical Invasion" is to listen to Darkthrone all over again; at least, the early Darkthrone known
for "Transylvanian Hunger" and "Under A Funeral Moon". The music is cold, buzzing, and has plenty of punk and
groove to make this sort of black metal enjoyable. The only thing that separates Evil Wrath from the black metal
legends is that their vocalist is a bit higher in pitch.
Most of the tracks here are straight up speed black metal, such as "Les Tenebres De La Conscience" and "The
Downfall of Existence" for their speed, the fuzzy tone the guitar creates to overshroud the drums unless they
aren't on a machine gun rampage and the individual beats are separated enough to be heard. Then there's the
slower, more rock punk songs such as "Feeding the Flames" (which is by far the least 'black metal' track on the
album simply for the extremely slow pace of the song and they way the riffs are performed) and "Hell Marches
To War," which is still black metal in the sense it sounds very evil, but retains the groove of punk and rock. While
the riffs may get repetitive and monotonous for their downtuned, distorted style, they aren't just blast beats
the whole way.
There are some problems with the repetitiveness though. Between some of the tracks like the unholy trio of
"Chaotical Invasion," "Hell Marches To War," and "La Sphere Malsaine" the band opens the song with the exact
SAME riff. For the first few seconds every one sounds like the former, which for the most part is downright
annoying. Thanks Satan for tracks like "Death Symptom" which starts with a drum assault for once, and
culminates into a solo, rather than the same riff that all the other tracks started with all throughout. It takes a
full listen of each song to finally hear the differences, rather than skip around because the listener will think he
or she is hearing the same structure from the last song.
Anyone who liked the nineties black metal scene where the music was raw but had groove to it will find this
enjoyable. Yes it's Darkthrone all over again, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. There's about a hundred
other bands out there that try to pull off the same style, but go for more extreme riffs and low production and
forget about the groove, which is obviously the most important part that separates Evil Wrath's black metal from
just being sheer noise. Let's just hope they don't follow into a pure metal punk style or it will be laughable as
they try to become the next Darkthrone.

Some say that black metal should evolve. Some, like Evil Wrath here, say a big fuck off to that. On their second
full-length Chaotical Invasion, this hateful Canadian group offers nothing but true underground black metal in
the very vein of Darkthrone’s golden era in the first half of the 90s. No more, no less. In good, and bad.

The paragraph above alone tells pretty much enough, but let’s go into some details, anyhow: Evil Wrath does
know how to create cold sounding black metal without unnecessary twists, there’s that certain monotony in
these rather long compositions - most evidently manifested on the over eight-minute title track - where a
moderately paced blast beat carries the song through various tremolo picked evil riffs, rather high-pitched
screams proclaiming death and hatred towards the whole of humanity on top. Bass guitar is quite non-existent
but it does make the album’s lo-fi soundscape a tad fuller. And who wants some lively bass solos on an old school
black metal album, anyway?

I’ve heard a fair deal of better albums in this field, albums that have summoned coldness and lurking menace
much more convincingly, but then again, I’ve also heard many worse endeavours than Chaotical Invasion. This
album might offer little to someone who needs basically nothing but Under a Funeral Moon to satisfy his needs
for basic, hateful black metal, but for those who still seek out for different faces within a constricted,
uncompromising style, Chaotical Invasion might just be his thing.

Evil Wrath unleash their second album, 'Chaotic Invasion,' and like their debut, it is raw as hell. On the downside,
the band doesn't try anything new as it just crushes along with distortion and black metal rhythms. One can
relate this to Darkthrone's early days, but Evil Wrath are much fuzzier and the music more raw in atmosphere
than their predecessors. As a result, listeners will get some pretty intense music, but often too much than they
can handle. Tracks like "Les tenebres..." and "Chaotic Invasion" are sheer steamrollers as they just rawly
pummel chord after chord at extreme speeds with the vocals feeling ethereal and detatched in their shrieking.
"Feeding The Flames" have a bit more groove and catchiness to the riffs, but still the distortion tends to cloud
everything and the guitars are the main sound next to the vocals. The bass is basically lost next to the drums,
but on a track like "Feeding" they can be heard pretty clearly.

"Hell Marches To War" lives up to its name as it crawls along with a chugging, heavily groove inspired pace. It is
by far the most comprehensible track on the album and most likely enjoyable. The vocals venomously hiss about
and the drums are certainly clearer than usual. Even the bass. which overlaps the guitar, can be heard because
the ferocious chugging that usually occurs isn't going on. From this point on though, Evil Wrath still have that
issue of staying in the same vein. Every track after focuses on black n' roll punk inspired grooves just like "Hell"
and between the last two tracks everything just sounds the same... same as the issue of the first half of the
album when it was going on at a much more aggressive pace.

Punk rock black metal fans will probably enjoy this, but the distortion saturated atmosphere will probably make
the entire album a bit hard to handle, or separate from so many other black metal acts who perform the same
kind of music. You'd be sure to find bands that sound like this on a label like Moribund Cult for a dime a dozen, so
there isn't much 'uniqueness' here. The production can almost be considered demo quality, depending on how
much listeners pay attention to it. Raw, kvlt black metal fans will find it appealing, but those looking for
something to stand out probably won't go too crazy over it.
