Years are passing by, and "The List" is already the third album of the Canadian band AXIS OF ADVANCE, band founded on the still burning ashes of SACRAMENTARY ABOLISHMENT. Very honestly, these are super underground bands, and I would be surprised if more 10% of have even heard about them. But it's quite notorious that the Canadian extreme Metal scene (by that I mean Death and Black Metal bands) is really extreme and fucked up, just like the infamous LUST, NECROGOAT CLITORIS, or BLASPHEMY.
Of course, AXIS OF ADVANCE are in the same spiritual vein as their compatriots, and "The List" is in that genre, very violent, not very clever, and severely insane. To tell you the truth, if you understand something when you listen to the "The List" for the first time, then it's maybe because your favourite band ever is SADISTIK EXEKUTION! Anyway, "The List" is a patchwork of different styles, from Death Metal to Grind, by Black Metal, but it's still quite messy and going in all the directions at the same time.
So, only for a very specific and warned audience… (Online November 9, 2002)
