Zealot 2024 cassette

Violent and fiery two-track tape from this Houston, TX mayhem power trio, providing a dosage of blackened crust and metallic punk. Demonic forms are exalted and the lyricism is great in both songs regarding the doom we are all in (and that which is to come). Great dragging sludge cadences with gracefully executed string sections. Recommended.

Zealot Zealot demo cassette

From Houston, Texas, we are delivered this graceful debut of metallic crust punk. Five tracks in under sixteen minutes of stench metal punk, filled with sludgy cadences, sick guitars with a ball-of-noise sound, and anger-filled, pain-induced vocals with a cathartic cadence releasing all, plus heavy drums that often take the speedway before leaving a spree of chaos behind them and with you. Raw energy contained and let loose at different paces, with great palm-muting and riffy strings. Suggested track: “…And How Did We Get Here?” for seekers of crust punk sounds of a more metallic nature.
