Official 2024 digipak CD re-issue on NunSlaughter Records. Blasphemy and disgrace from the MASTERS of raw Satanic DEVIL METAL DEATH!!! Burning the flame of True Satanic Death Metal in the spirit of Possessed, Hellhammer & Venom since 1987!
Few records capture the raw, unfiltered essence of death metal like Hells Unholy Fire, the long-awaited debut full-length from NUNSLAUGHTER. Released in 2000 after years of demos, EPs, and splits, this album feels less like a polished studio effort and more like a defiant blast of underground spirit. Drawing heavily from early black, thrash, and death metal, it delivers a sound that is both primitive and compelling.
The opening track, “I Am Death,” sets the tone immediately. There is no buildup and no hesitation. Guitarist Blood unleashes riff after riff with a dirty, chainsaw-like tone that cuts straight to the point. Jim Sadist's drumming is feral and unrelenting, propelling each track forward with manic energy. At the center of it all is Don of the Dead, whose snarling vocals deliver each lyric with venom and conviction.
At just under thirty minutes, the album moves quickly. Tracks like “Devil Metal,” “Burn in Hell,” and “Raid the Convent” are short, sharp, and unapologetically direct. Each song strips death metal to its bare essentials, replacing complexity with sheer impact. The spirit of punk runs through the record, adding a layer of urgency and rebellion that gives the material even more bite.
Hells Unholy Fire does not attempt to modernize or refine the genre. Instead, it embraces rawness and tradition, staying true to the band’s Satanic and no-frills vision. There is no gloss here, only grit. For those who seek underground death metal that values energy and attitude over polish, this album remains a defining statement. NUNSLAUGHTER delivers the kind of metal that feels alive, dangerous, and absolutely essential.
