The first review of DEMONIC RAGE start to appear!

VOICES FROM THE DARKSIDE Webzine

Here you are: A demon with rage! There's no other description here. Yeah, there is Death Metal that is played for fun, for the technical show, or just to fit into a scene. And then there is Death Metal that feels like a curse. DEMONIC RAGE belongs to that second category. Since 2001, these maniacs from Puerto Montt have been spitting a very specific type of poison in the south of Chile, and listening to "Desecration Rites" feels like finally drinking from that chalice. It is not about being the fastest or the most technical; it is about an atmosphere of total damnation and rage. When I listen to this release, I am reminded of why I still care about the underground. DEMONIC RAGE is not trying to reinvent the wheel by any means, and thank Satan for that. They take the darkest, most obscure elements of the genre, specifically the heavy, oppressive vibes of early INCANTATION or the twisted structures of IMMOLATION, and inject it with that chaotic, violent DNA that only South American bands seem to possess. This release, brought to us by Nihilistic Holocaust on Pro CD-R, collects material that has different moments of the band's recent history, including their 2020 EP and very recent rehearsal tracks from 2025. But you wouldn't know it just by feeling the vibe; the hatred is consistent. It all flows like one single stream of blasphemy. DEMONIC RAGE's music is a vehicle for their anti-Christian venom and their obsession with death. The execution here is barbarous. You have Abhorer doing the heavy shit, handling drums, guitars and bass with a primitive force that drives the entire war machine. He is backed by Matías Torres and Luis on strings, creating a wall of noise that leaves no room for light. Over this instrumental chaos, Alejandro Delgado delivers the vocals with absolute rage. What I love about this album is that it captures the essence of a rehearsal room that smells of humidity and beer, where the music is created not for an audience, but to satisfy a personal need to desecrate the sacred. It is primitive, yes, but in the way a ritual sacrifice is primitive. It is hostile. It's exactly what Death Metal was meant to be. Period! DEMONIC RAGE has stayed true to a sound that is ugly and repulsive to the mainstream, and that is exactly why it is so beautiful to ears like mine. If you are looking for innovation, go elsewhere. But if you want to feel the cold darkness of Chilean underground Metal and listen to a band that truly believes in the darkness, then this is your band. "Desecration Rites" is raw, it's real and it's absolutely devoted to death.

ENCOMIUM Zine (Ukraine)

Chile's Demonic Rage is a rather ruthless and extremely obscure band that has been spreading its blasphemous death metal since 2000. This release includes their 3-track EP from 2020, a Headhunter D.C. cover, and 2 rehearsal tracks from 2025. So this 26 minutes of chaotic madness was titled "Desecration Rites" and released in a limited edition of 100 copies on CD-R with a digisleeve cover. The first three tracks, i.e. "Condemned Resurrection", "Vomit the Cross of Damnation" & "Sentenced to Suffer in Blood", were recorded and mixed in just seven hours in June 2020 at Refugio Sonoro Studio in Puerto Montt. Alejandro Delgado (vocals), Matías Torres (guitars) & Abhorer (drums/guitars/bass), members of the evil horde, confidently carry out their mission and attack us with a beastly dose of post-apocalyptic sound waves. Their music is truly devastating! "Intense Infanticide" is the fourth track, in which Luis (bass/guitars) and Satran Xul (vocals) spice up this Headhunter D.C. classic with their demonic presence, making it an unforgettable experience. The last two songs, "Submission by Sacred Heresy" and "Desecrating the False Divinity", were recorded in June 2025 at Sub Nivel Studio in Puerto Montt. This is a completely sick and rotten sounding rehearsal recording, so expect an extremely raw and low-quality production. Add to that Daniel Desecrator's morbid cover art, and you get something that visually and musically destroys everything that is sacred. So, as you can see, this is definitely not for the faint-hearted, so I'm warning you in advance!!!

Hello,
Here are the last news of the FERETRO full-lenght:

A new interview of FERETRO was published on LELAHEL Metal webzine:
https://www.lelahelmetal.net/2025/10/interview-feretro.html


New reviews were posted on NECROZINE webzine, GUTS OF DARKNESS webzine, THE HORROR DIMENSION webzine, METAL RULEZ.PL webzine,  BRUTALISM webzine, CANADIAN ASSAULT webzine and WINTER TORMENT Blog... Check it out!

NECROZINE Webzine:
Chile's FERETRO might have taken their time to reach a full-length, but when something brews underground for two decades, it either dies or mutates into something truly rotten.
In their case, it's the latter. "The Mortuary Destiny of Flesh" sounds like a tomb cracking open after twenty years – raw, heavy, and filled with the kind of death metal spirit that refuses to evolve just for the sake of modernity.
This is pure old-school death metal, forged in the spirit of the late '80s and early '90s – unpretentious, direct, and heavy as a morgue door. The album doesn't try to reinvent anything, and that's exactly its strength. FERETRO know what they want to play, and they do it without hesitation. Fast, mid-tempo, or crawling — every riff feels like it's been written with bones, not fingers.
From the opener, The Ancient Horror, it's clear where the band draws its venom. You can hear echoes of early DEATH, the doom-heavy drag of ASPHYX, and that distinct South American filth that makes everything sound more unhinged. The guitars slice between tremolo-picked aggression and slow, suffocating riffs, while the solos are melodic in that bleak, old-school way – more like cries from the coffin than technical showcases.
Tracks like In Agony and Time to Die carry that balance perfectly: thrashy tremolo lines crashing into cavernous doom parts, drums that pound with mechanical precision but never lose that human pulse, and vocals that sound like they're coming from a throat lined with dust and grave soil. There's something satisfying in how natural it all feels – no triggered perfection, no sterile polish, just pure, decaying sound.
Production-wise, "The Mortuary Destiny of Flesh" keeps things deliberately rough around the edges. Everything bleeds together slightly, but that murk is part of the charm. It feels like it could've been recorded in a candlelit basement in 1992, and that authenticity can't be faked.
Closer Epitaph adds an unexpected layer of atmosphere, hinting at something more melodic beneath all the rot. It's not gothic, not clean – just haunting enough to show that FERETRO still have a few tricks left in the grave.
"The Mortuary Destiny of Flesh" is for those who grew up with tapes that hissed, riffs that suffocated, and bands that didn't give a damn about trends. FERETRO belong to that lineage – one that's too stubborn to die and too old to care about anything but death itself. Get your copy via Nihilistic Holocaust Recs here.

GUTS OF DARKNESS Webzine :
S'il y a bien une partie du globe où le Metal ne subit pas des tentatives d'institutionnalisation, mais est bien une institution, c'est l'Amérique du sud. De ces lointaines contrées ont vu apparaitre un paquet de groupes fondateurs devenus cultes : Sepultura ou Sarcofago pour les plus connus, mais aussi Sadism, Atomic Aggressor, Pentagram, Mortem et tant d'autres créés à l'issue de de périodes troubles de l'histoire de leurs pays. De ces évènements, ils en ont tiré une véritable force. Leur œuvre, une catharsis où le morbide doit absolument côtoyer le démoniaque.
L'héritage de ses groupes est précieux. On admire toujours le jusqu'au-boutisme des groupes de l'époque, celui qui a fortement influencé toute une vague de groupes nordiques dans les années 1990 sans jamais recevoir de retour d'ascenseur. Fauchés, mais têtus, les sud-américains ont toujours fait preuve d'une persévérance sans faille qui a fini par payer ces dernières années, faisant de leur continent une destination de tournée incontournable.
Cette persévérance se retrouve évidemment chez les chiliens de Feretro. Formés dans le Los Angeles chilien en 2005, ils auront mis vingt ans à sortir ce premier album, non sans avoir multiplié les démos, EP et autre splits dans la grande tradition du Metal.
Que pouvait-on attendre de ce 'The Mortuary Destiny of Flesh' si ce n'est un Death Metal putride, façonné dans la plus pure tradition des 'Seven Churches' ou 'Scream Bloody Gore' ?
Un Death Metal resté intact depuis 1987, sans aucun apport progressif ni virtuosité démesurée, comme si Chuck Schuldiner n'aurait pas eu envie de se challenger outre mesure, et aurait continué dans la lancée de ses trois premiers albums.
Tout n'y est pas parfait, on peut ressentir des moments de flottement dans la rythmique, mais c'est justement tout ce qui fait le charme et le sel de cette musique. Elle se doit d'être organique, surtout au niveau du chant, littéralement dégueulé du plus profond des tripes du vocaliste. Chaque riff fonctionne dans sa répétition incessante, comme dans 'In Agony' ou 'Time to Die'. Simple et efficace, telle est la formule, il n'en faut pas plus, mais pas moins non plus, simplicité n'est pas synonyme de travail bâclé, et chaque composition arrive à se démarquer de la suivante.
Il n'existe pas d'album morbide sans l'apport d'éléments Doom, et le groupe se permet quelques incursions dans le genre sur le morceau 'Death's Cycle', pièce épique de plus de 8 minutes qui pourrait rappeler les grandes heures d'Autopsy ou sur 'Epitaph' qui sonne comme une marche funèbre en conclusion de l'album. Des ralentissements bienvenus au service de l'ambiance du disque.
Si le groupe ne brille pas forcément par son audace, on ne peut que saluer cette manière d'entretenir une flamme restée intacte depuis toutes ces années sans jamais avoir à jouer les gardiens du temple. Le terme 'revival', propre à la scène US et portée par de gros labels n'aurait même pas de sens à leur encontre, point d'opportunisme, la question ne se pose même pas. C'est le Death Metal qui donne envie de filer au video-club se louer une bonne série B italienne sans aucune autre prétention derrière, et c'est ça qu'on aime! Duabiht

THE HORROR DIMENSION Webzine :
Feretro finalmente entrega su esperado primer álbum, tras 20 largos años de trayectoria. The Mortuary Destiny of Flesh, tras años de demos, EPs y un split con Silure. Con nueve canciones, el disco es un golpe directo de Death Metal de la vieja escuela, rápido, crudo y brutal, exactamente como debe ser, no busques nada nuevo porque aquí todo se ha escuchado ya, es como regresar a esa primigenia escena, el aliciente que destaca el álbum es que saben exactamente lo que tiene que hacer y lo hacen de maravilla.
La música de Feretro recuerda mucho a las bandas clásicas del género: Pestilence, Morgoth, Death, Obituary, y el Death Metal sudamericano más primitivo. Cada riff, cada blast beat y cada voz cavernosa evocan esa época en que el Death Metal era áspero, sin pulir y totalmente visceral.
Líricamente, el álbum explora la muerte, la decadencia y la oscuridad, siempre con un tono directo que encaja perfectamente con la música. La coherencia entre composición y ejecución convierte a The Mortuary Destiny of Flesh en un debut sólido y memorable.
La producción mantiene ese filo áspero que amplifica la sensación de crudeza, sin perder fuerza ni claridad en los momentos más intensos. Este álbum no busca modernizar el estilo; es un homenaje a los sonidos que definieron el género. Para los fanáticos de la vieja escuela, cada tema es un recordatorio de por qué el Death Metal extremo sigue siendo tan atractivo décadas después.
The Mortuary Destiny of Flesh consolida a Feretro como uno de los nombres más sólidos del Death Metal chileno, mostrando que la esencia old school todavía puede golpear fuerte. 8/10

METAL RULEZ.PL Webzine:
Zespół Feretro działa już ponoć od dobrych dwóch dekad, ale dopiero teraz — po demówkach, splitach i EP kach — dorzuca do pieca pełnoczasowy debiut. I trzeba przyznać, że jeśli ktoś tęskni za klimatem przełomu lat 80. i 90., to trafił we właściwe miejsce.
Już sam rzut oka na logo i okładkę wystarczy, by wiedzieć, z czym mamy do czynienia. To death metal — klasyczny, posępny, duszny. Od razu na starcie uderza nas ,,Towards Perishment" – szybki, thrashujący numer, który przypomina początki Death albo stare demówki Pestilence. Potem jednak tempo wyraźnie siada i przez większą część albumu poruszamy się raczej w rejestrach wolnych lub średnich, z solidną dawką death/doomowych walców jak w ,,The Hour of Death".
To granie bez zaskoczeń — ale i bez większych wpadek. Feretro nie odkrywają Ameryki, bo nie muszą. Ich riffy są brudne, ciężkie i dobrze rozplanowane, a tu i ówdzie dostajemy klasyczne solóweczki z wajhą, które tylko pogłębiają staroszkolny klimat. Wokalista stara się być dość różnorodny – głównie operuje niskimi, szorstkimi growlami, ale potrafi też zmienić rejestr, dodać nieco ekspresji czy zmodyfikować sposób frazowania. W kilku momentach jego maniera faktycznie przypomina Johna Tardego, ale to tylko jeden z elementów całej palety. Nie ma tu może fajerwerków, ale wokalnie jest konkretnie i z charakterem, co dobrze współgra z całością materiału.
Perkusja? Bez fajerwerków. Klasyczne łupanie, bez blastów i zbędnego kombinowania – ale dokładnie to, czego można się spodziewać po takim materiale. Brzmienie? Surowe, duszne, dość hermetyczne – i choć wszystko ma swój ciężar, to mimo wszystko czuję lekki niedosyt. Może przydałoby się jeszcze więcej kopnięcia w dolnym paśmie, bo czasem chciałoby się poczuć to bardziej w trzewiach.
Na plus wypadają też klawiszowe wstawki – jak z klasycznego, zapomnianego horroru VHS klasy B (patrz: ,,Epitaph"). Tani efekt? Może. Ale działa. W tym klimacie wszystko takie być powinno.
Czy The Mortuary Destiny of Flesh to płyta, którą będę wspominać za rok? Pewnie nie. Ale jak człowiek ma ochotę na konkretny, grobowy death metal – bez filtrów i udziwnień – to ten album dokładnie to zapewnia. Brakuje tu może czegoś naprawdę charakterystycznego, jest ednak sporo solidnego grania, a to czasem wystarczy...

BRUTALISM Webzine:
Feretro finally have unleashed their debut album upon the world. A ghoulish kick in the teeth of Death Metal mixed with Thrash from Chile, the band mixes with the sounds of Slayer, Pestilence, and Incantation for thick Old School Death Metal with some Doom touches, but mostly just thrashing Death Metal. Signed to Nihilistic Holocaust, the album is full of 9 tracks that have some atmosphere, strong riffs, guttural lows, and energetic solos to keep listeners entertained. After a short 80s nightmarish horror sounding intro with guitar and keyboards, courtesy of Mauricio, things kick off with 'Towards Perishment' in fast, almost Slayer fashion. The riffs between Mauricio and vocalist Pedro whose thick growl is a little buried by the riffs and bass from Rodrigo, but still somewhat understandable and enjoyable as they pierce the dark. What Feretro really specialize in are their solos which are slow, melodic, dark, and yet remorseless. Grim and definitely Incantation sounding, they add the odious atmosphere to the music created. Of course, this is only short lived as drummer Felipe kicks things again in high gear with his thick 'door knocking' sounding style.
Things shift away from the Slayer elements a bit quickly though as the album progresses. 'The Ancient Horror' has faster riffs but more blastbeats and more of that Pestilence sound amongst the slower lumbering Incantation bits. It isn't as energetic but shows more vocal range as Pedro adds in snarls and shrieks and less of his usual growl. It sounds more effective when the music is slower though, and Feretro does feature a lot of slow moments, almost more than their faster ones such as the axe dragging pace of 'In Agony.' With the slower pace though does come a bit of repetition of the riffs, and a trade for darker, more Doom laden tones as opposed to the frantic Thrash driven sound of the earlier tracks. This can also be heard in 'The Hour of Death' which comes off more as just a long instrumental with lengthy, drawn out riffs and some vocals right at the end, but they are more for noise effect than anything else and serves as a break from the Death Metal side of things, even though the style is indeed still Death Metal just done Incantation style.
After the middle of the album though it feels like though Feretro tends to stick to a bit of a one trick pony. Relying mostly on the Incantation/ Paradise Lost style pace, the music just seems to lumber without the life and energy it started out with. 'Time to Die' has some good riffs but the pacing and energy just doesn't seem to have the mosh energy, the standing still and headbanging. ''Death's Cycle' is a track right of a Incantation's playbook for being lengthy, dramatic, and chilling with the pace and while it does feature some fast parts up until the half of the track, falls back into typical habit with lengthy, suffocating growls and morose guitar wailing that is effective for atmosphere, but doesn't really get listeners really into until the drums kick into overdrive. Thankfully, 'Flesh for Worms' is more energetic, frantic, and has some more riff energy that makes listeners not just focus on the drums, guitar solos, and vocals. The drums also are a bit more lively with that frantic 'knock' sound again and not just a heavy, lumbering snooze fest like a zombie trying to get in. True, Feretro try to make atmosphere as much a part of their music as the riffs, but they rely on the slowness to much and don't add as much of the 'horror movie aspects' to really get the sound right when their influences definitely delivered faster music to get aggressive to, though the closing keyboards on 'Epitaph' were an excellent choice when it came to capturing the moment of horror.
Overall, "The Mortuary Destiny Of Flesh" is a mixed bag that does need work, but has promise. The mix of Thrash, Death Metal, and Doom a little imbalanced, but delivers an Old School Death Metal record that is steeped in the right amounts of horror lore, guitar 'distortion,' and a variation of fast and slow moments to keep listeners entertained without feeling bored with the song structures or themes, especially when it comes to the longer tracks due to the average Metal song being about four minutes. The album does lean more on the slow than fast side, but listeners can still headbang to it without feeling like it will tire them anytime soon.

CANADIAN ASSAULT Webzine
This band from Chile feels like an old souls band. They play straight forward, alternating fast to mostly middle paced and highly emotive deathrash metal. This heavy chugging music has a cool gloomy atmosphere to it. The vocals from Pedro Veloso are such great traditional (Chris Reifert style) growls that I find extremely infectious to listen to. This music for me is timeless and it should turn on fans of the early works of bands like Pestilence, Morgoth, Asphyx, Disciples Of Power, Autopsy, Cancer etc...   - Dale
