COFFINS - Buried Death CD

This is the third and legendary album of the Japanese Death Metal band Coffins, a classic and absolute mandatory 
for old school death metal fans!
On their 3rd album (recorded in 2008) Tokyo-Japan’s Coffins are firmly established as the underground’s leading 
purveyors of Neanderthal paced Doomed Death Metal. Previous albums “The Other Side Of Blasphemy” and “Mortuary 
In Darkness” introduced Coffins’ black tar dirge to an audience eager for slowpressive maniac riffs and songs dragged 
forth like the arms of a lumbering ape with the impact of a huge bulldozer... no escape! Derivative and true rather then 
progressive and new, with an effectiveness unmatched in today’s underground. Immediately battering the listener with 
the opening sledgehammer ‘Under The Stench’ the album crawls ever forward through the catchiest Coffins tracks ever, 
like Celtic Frost at 16 RPM narcoplunder of ‘Cadaver Blood’. The patented brick heavy guitar tone remains and the band 
has added some additional solos and high vocal screams, hinted at on 2006’s “The Other Side...” album. Rather than 
toy with forced “evolution” Coffins has instead sharpened and honed its devolved sound further in its primitive singlemindedness, no compromise here!
For years this album was almost impossible to find in Europe, now we at Hammerheart Records proudly bring you this 
Death Metal classic with two additional live songs! Meanwhile Coffins will issue a CD-EP called “March of Despair” (vinyl 
will have two bonus-songs making it a full-LP) on May 14th 2012 and a live-CD/LP later this year on Hammerheart Records. 
They have now signed a worldwide deal with Relapse Records for their upcoming full-length album. Coffins will tour 
Europe again in April/May 2012, right on time to present these classic songs!
Oh yes, the cover art is by Chris Moyen, a living legend if we might say so...
