STOP GETTING HUMAN REMAINS WRONG

Everyone's suddenly talking about Human Remains, about time too one might think - the pioneering death/grind band that later gave birth to mighty Discordance Axis are long overdue some love, perhaps even another tasty reissue and some retrospective fapping from magazines. Alas, it turns out an "occult NWOBHM band" called Hell have released an album called 'Human Remains' on Nuclear Blast so obviously they're all up in people's grills, pushing their way to the front of the Satanic rock queue by merit of age - they include renown producer Andy Sneap, whose weighty wallet/contacts book gave pagan thrashers Sabbat a welcome second airing.

Obviously Hell are about as "occult" as London Dungeon and about as interesting as Avenged Sevenfold, and their sudden reappearance fits seamlessly into the general narrative of classic heavy metal being back, or whatever. Apparently some people have a lot of time in their lives for this sort of Magic: The Gathering noodling, and on the off chance any of them find their way here - consider this a watershed moment in your understanding.
