Sick Drummer Magazine is truly honored to premier the title-track from the forthcoming Misery Index release, ‘The Killing Gods.’ We have long seen the talent behind this band and the simply relentless drumming of Adam Jarvis, so to see them continue on this path of success and leadership is nothing shocking to us here at SDM. Adam continues to pummel us with music not only from Misery Index, but from Pig Destroyer, Fulgora, Asthma Castle, Clenched Fist and who knows what will be next. A hard-hitting, incredibly fast drummer with style is very hard to find, but look no further… He has arrived.
Misery Index’s new album ‘The Killing Gods’ distills almost fifteen years of relentless touring, recording, and writing into one of 2014’s best extreme metal albums. ‘The Killing Gods’ twelve tracks (including the 5 part, fifteen-minute, album opener “Faust”), are a crucial exercise in veracity; eschewing superfluous parts or studio trickery for brutal economy and effect. Riff after riff drips with malevolence, while the band’s dual vocal assault transmits the chaos of a dystopian society gone mad. As ‘The Killing Gods’ proves from start to finish, Misery Index have crossed the threshold into death metal greatness. Photo by Josh Sisk.
