So check this out…how gnarly is gnarly? Better yet. how epic awesome is epic awesome?? Well, I’m hear to tell you the sounds that DEPHOSPHORUS creates on their debut record Axiom deserve all of these accolades & then some. This band is so sick they produced their own genre called astro grind. So you are probably asking yourself, what the fuck is this? From my point of view, it’s some of the heaviest shit that I have heard lately. Basically, DEPHOSPHORUS are some demented musical scientists that have mixed the torment of black metal, the animalistic power of grindcore, the rabid angst of hardcore, the FTW attitude of punk with buckets of blackened soul to produce a record that should be on everyone’s top ten list. While listening to this album, I feel like they are drilling holes into my skull, but I don’t mind because this music is rotting joy to my demented soul. The grooves that DEPHOSPHORUS conjure up are truly astro, they are deep & otherworldly. This band is a perfect example of laying everything on the line & hiding nothing – they put every ounce of their souls into each song. The riffs that you will experience on Axiom might leave you in a state of shock or maybe with just slight brain damage. The tones that the guitars make on this album speak a language of revolution & call for the overthrow of all of the corrupt beings on planet earth. The drumming on this album sounds like an ancient army on a warpath fighting for their rights against a maggot-eating emperor! Grindcore is only the jump off for DEPHOSPHORUS – each song weaves elements of so many different genres you can’t tell where one starts & the other ends, and this blending almost leaves me speechless. What else that gets me hyped about this band is their use of eerie & bugged-out sound effects that give your thoughts a space vehicle to travel on! Vocally, the screams & growls pack a vibe of blackened rage that can’t be ignored – actually while listening to them I get an energy boost. So when you hear their tracks COLLIMATOR or ON THE VERGE OF AN OCCURRENCE, if they don’t make you feel good to be alive, you just might be dead already! Plus, DEPHOSPHORUS get props for their sick album art by Viral Graphics.

Why don’t you vote for us ladies & gentlemen?

I really didn’t expect anything in the grind/hardcore arena to top this year’s GridLink album especially from such a young band, but that’s what Axiom did in my opinion. I’m fucking addicted to this burst of chaotic energy in an absurd sense. A superb blend of breakneck cosmic grind, and crusty blackened hardcore expertly crafted into a truly fantastic and unique experience. Every song is memorable and paced so well, all elements gel together without becoming stale or crowded. The spacey overtone is wonderful. This band has incredible potential and what they display here is most likely only the tip of it.

A righteous review in french… <<… Dephosphorus’ music is quite evident when we think about it. This fluidity is its power.>>

Anciens gratteux des grindeurs de Straigthhate rejoint par le batteur de Injekting Khaos (du black grec influencé par la scène française froide et haineuse façon Antaeus, à la recherche d’un label pour un nouveau mini LP), Desphosphorus vient de pondre un truc qui tourne en boucle chez moi.

Cet ep m’a tout simplement botté le cul, peut être autant que le 1er release de Superstatic Revolution. Assez narratif, diversifié et surtout très bien composé, Dephosphorus ne sonne pas pour autant posé ou stérile, loin là. La rage et le feeling sont palpables. N’hésitant pas à martyriser les futs dans des élans grind ou à perdre quelques neurones dans des plans crusty, les grecs nous envoient aussi un peu plus haut dans le ciel avec quelques plans spacy. Ne tombant pas dans le piège d’une surtechnicité stérile, Dephosphorus reste accessible à tout moment et privilégie les ambiances dissonantes et ne rechigne pas à lorgner vers le death ou le black. Chiadé tout en sonnant spontané. Finalement assez hors carcan, même si grind et post hardcore sont les premiers mots venant à l’esprit, la musique de Dephosphorus est en fait assez évidente quand on y pense. Cette fluidité est sa force.

On ajoute un artwork intéressant et des gars pas cons en inties.prochain album sous peu « Nigth Sky Transform ».tout est prêt, ne reste plus qu’à trouver un label.. Pas la peine de s’étendre plus que ça.

Dephosphorus cominciano a fare robe nel 2008, in Grecia. Dopo anni di demo registrati e altri titititirititi, sbuca fuori Axiom, prodotto da una casa discografica tedesca. E son grosse esplosioni anagogiche e cosmiche in ovunquelato.
‘Sti mangia-aglio han svecchiato un genere come il grindcore nobilitandolo, a loro stesso dire, ad “astrogrind”, dando alla violenza dell’album un valore rituale e purificatorio altissimo e che ha radici enormemente antiche. Un certo tipo di esoteria simil-pitagorica permea tutto l’album sin dal titolo e dall’artwork. La geometria sonora e la perfezione della brutalità dell’album sono tutti i mezzi che i musicisti in questione usano per raggiungere la catarsi, per epurarsi, per diventare un puro esercizio di ragione nella sua accezione più antica, quella degli atti di pura forza che si eseguono in contrasto con la natura violenta della physis stessa. Copiosissimi viaggi metempsicotici ed elevazioni spirituali per un genere che s’era consegnato all’idolatria suicida di pochi fanatici che ne capiscono ben poco.

Tout court: adrenalina pura.

arrivano direttamente dalla Atene in tumulto che si devasta tra risse con la polizia e spese sociali ai supermercati, il debutto sulla breve distanza di questo trio che gode di un’ottima produzione e di una composizione a tratti davvero ispirata- visto che riesce a mettere più d’un accento personale su un territorio alla fine abbastanza difficile da scardinare e rinnovare come quello grind. ma i ragazzi hanno le carte in regola (e non lo dico soltanto io, pure ondarock lo dice) per prepararci un debutto su ellepì che potrebbe portare una devastazione sonica ancora mai vista in questo terzo, lugubre e riottoso millennio, non so se mi spiego? oh, io incrocio le dita, voi invece gugòlate i ragassi e ascoltatevi le sette tracce: promettono un gran bene.

qui il loro sito officiale dove trovate tutto, e quando dico tutto intendo proprio tutto (frì daunlò, ndr): dephosphorus!

4. Dephosphorus – Axiom
Sadly, I don’t even remember where I first read about Dephosphorus. I easily follow over 50 metal sites in my Google Reader. But I am eternally grateful to whoever it was that wrote about this album and enticed me to download it (they released it for free, I do not steal music). For about the first month after I had it on my computer I constantly found myself craving and revisiting it. So I ordered the vinyl, because these guys definitely deserve the support. Axiom hits every sweet spot in my body. Raw fucking energy, intelligent lyrics and a captivating aesthetic. If you haven’t heard this yet, download the free copy and give it a listen. And if you like it fucking buy it. Support the music you love. It feels good. Trust me.

We are glad that Kunal Nandi from Superfi Records has included “Axiom” in his top 10 list for 2011!!!

Dephosphorus – Axiom LP
Hard working Greek lads get their great self released CD onto wax. Bit crusty, nicely varied, always melodic and always evil.

Latest Metal Hammer Greece#324 (December 2011) features a 2-page interview with Dephosphorus. Move your ass to the kiosk and buy it!
