MOBILE DEATH CAMP

Clear and Present Anger

Boe Skadeland’s vintage Spectors drive a growly pulse-pounding low-end on this death metal rage-fest.  Deep, clear and unmistakably vintage Spector, Boe’s Kramer NS-2A and SSD Era NS-94 models manage his articulate and growly low-end sound with headroom to spare.  Boe shows why there’s no school like the old school and has earned my gratitude for proving that these older vintage models are still a force to be reckoned with.  Consider yourself learned.

BASSIST: BOE SKADELAND

BASSES: NS-2A & NS-94

MOBILE DEATHCAMP KILLS IT LIVE | NEW MUSIC MONKEY

Mobile DeathCamp Kills it live | New Music Monkey.

Before a small but enthusiastic crowd,Toledo,Ohio’s Mobile DeathCamp brought along its Heavy Metal refresher course and schooled all present. Made up of  Dave Martin on Drums, Boe Skadeland on bass, and fronted by Todd Evans on guitar and vocals, the band unleashed it’s own magnificent version of speed and thrash metal with deft and surprising musical virtuosity.

The 75 minute set leaned heavily on the bands second and most recent release, Clear and Present Anger. Mobile DeathCamp’s super-tight musical show stayed focused and relentless, delivering a brutal and uncompromising set of high octane double bass thrash, the likes of which hasn’t been done properly in years. “Sesquac,” “Cover Judge” and “Human Popsicles” were all highlights in a show filled with solid and memorable performances.

Melbourne,Florida’s Prophecy Z14 was the only opening act on the bill I caught. They were a more than capable metal act, with considerable promise. Songs like “Pillar of Salt” and “Torn from the Flies” are indicative of where this band should be headed. Their secret weapon is phenomenal Bassist, Oz, whose presence proves to be a game changer, to help the band stand apart from other Metal acts of the same ilk.

Judging by the number of Mobile Deathcamp shirts recently being sported in and around the vicinity of the venue, a good time was had by all and like any artist worth their salt, Mobile DeathCamp left the audience wanting more.

The sophomore album from Mobile Deathcamp continues where their first one, Black Swamp Rising, left off. Old dogs don’t learn new tricks, but why should you when your old tricks are already great. Musically the band is still heavily set on speed metal but the sound of the new album definitely sets it apart from the older. The production value of the album is much higher and finally the band can show off their considerable talent.

The music shares qualities with the likes of Napalm Death and old Death Angel albums. The songs are short and to the point. There are no fancy preludes or overdone intros. The music is relentless guitar and bass grind with few death like stops peppered into them. There are two songs that break the pace, Emerald, which is closer to a metal anthem and doesn’t quite fit in. The other one is Uhyusti which is more deliberate tangent into a indian chant.

With more than ten bands between them makes Mobile Deathcamp surely doesn’t lack experience in performing or recording. The new drummer, Dave Martin, adds to the mix and fits in like fist in your face with Todd Evans on guitar and Boe Skadeland on bass.
