DEAD NEANDERTHALS - Demo MMXXV

Filthy f**ing f***! But why not? After their annual New Year's Eve release Dead Neanderthals didn't even wait one full day of 2026 to follow it up with a sick new EP.


DEAD NEANDERTHALS - Demo MMXXV
(download) (2026)

Three tracks, together only a little over twelve minutes. Played on drums and keyboard, with lots of distortion and blasting overdrive and unintelligible guttural vocals. And there's actually quite a lot happening, each track goes through multiple different parts.

What the Dutch duo is playing on this digital EP could basically be many different things between Crust Punk, Industrial, Post Hardcore or Doom Metal, who knows? Because, whatever it is, there's so much mould and dirt in the production that everything turns to brute Drone and noisiest Noise Rock anyway.

This sounds like a rusty probe being stuck in your cerebral cortex. And who would have thought that this particular medical problem feels so good?
