Yeah, this is what Dead did before he joined to Mayhem, and it isn't a bad stuff here, but without Dead's presence there is nothing special here. It's a death/thrash metal demo which has been recorded in 16 hours and it's pretty sensed here. The production is pretty bad, everything sounds distorted and there is a little mess among the instruments. The guitar has horrible sound, it sounds scratchy and a bit muted, that's a bad thing of course because the songs could be delivered much better with more powerful guitar tune.
The song themselves are pretty solid. 'My Dark Subconcious' begins with a weird sound and then comes a guitar with a pretty good opener riff and the song continues with a nice riffing and cool drumming. The vocals sounds pretty sick and occult, but sometimes it gets louder than the rest of the instruments and you can't hear well the riffs and also the drums blends a bit. 'Winds Of Funeral' begins with an awesome clean interlude and then it suddenly changes and becomes straightforward with some aggressive drumming and great riffs. I think it could be much better song if they were developing the clean intro and than changes the mood, because it really could be an outstanding track if they weren't waste such a great opening riff.
Anyway, the songs here are pretty rhythmic and has some catchy moments, but nothing more. The vocals pretty good and so are the riffs, but the production is really sucks and it sounds too much dirty like that. It's a good demo but not something essential. 6/10
