SARDONIC DEATH *KB  
"Celestial Mindwarp"  
(Demo 1991)  

Danish grinders SARDONIC DEATH have now released their 1st demo. And to be honest, this is not good. They deliver some uninspired grinddeath metal on their demo, and if there's something I don't like then it's uninspired grind death metal. This is bad both in musical terms, sound and cover wise. 11 tracks is featured on the "Celestial Mindwarp" demo. This is sooo boring and it doesn't turn me on in anyway. I can only say... Better luck next time guys!!

Uninspired Grind: A Review of Sardonic Death's "Celestial Mindwarp" Demo

Kenneth Thomsen is answering our stupid questions, so read on:

**Bandhistory + define your style**

"We started around '86-'87 as Denmarks nr.1 noise band!!! Later we got more serious and found inspiration in the NAPALM DEATH lp "Scum", that was released in '87. Our music is in the grind/thrash/hardcore category, a lot of people think we sound like AGATHOCLES, but they're also pretty cool !!"

**What have you released?**

"The only thing we have released with cover and everything is our demo called "Celestial Mindwarp". Of course there's a lot of rehearsals and livetapes around on the traderlists." (I think their demo is deleted, but write 'n ask, it's worth the trouble!)

**Why a name like SARDONIC DEATH?**

"I suggested sardonic because it's a cool word!! "Cynical". Janus our former bassist wanted to put death on. At that time there wasn't many bands with a "death" in their name. There isn't any specific reason why we're called SARDONIC DEATH, it's a name."

**Tell about your lyrics**

"Our lyrics have changed a lot since we started. The old lyrics on the tape are about how stupid people can be, a racist, and all the stupid things that you can read in a newspaper. "Plane" is about some people who have landed on a mountain after an accident. They have no food, so they have eat each other to survive! And they certainly do!! "The Headless Shadow" & "Suicidal Scarecrow" are pure acid! "The Edge Of The Grave" is about the Russian revolution (the first)."

**Futureplans?**

"We have plans for a new demo or maybe a new bassist or vocalist. We have talked with some people who might arrange some gigs for us in Denmark."

**Something nut to say before we end this interview?**

"A rottor stuck his head up from a sewer and told me: Cannibalistic Masturbation eats your brain!!!!! (Right - you're absolutely right) I have started a funband with guys from SACRIFICIAL and FUNERAL PYRE. We have got some names: Bottle Thrower, Gruesome Tasks and Munkblood…" (the band is called GRUESOME TASKS)

Interview with Kenneth Thomsen of Sardonic Death: Band History and Insights

SARDONIC DEATH; pretty guys.

## SUICIDE SOLUTION SUICIDE SOLUTION SUICIDE SOLUTION

Pelle Jakobsen did the boring answers;

### Bandhistory

"SUICIDE SOLUTION started in the spring '91, consisting of: Dan-guitar/vocals, Pelle-guitar, Rene-drums, and Anders-bass. But he was replaced by Lars-bass/vocals (he has also left, now they have Manoy-bass). Our music is a mixture of the music we're listening to (from BEASTIE BOYS to DISHARMONIC ORCHESTRA). Our music has been called nearly everything; Punk, power, thrash and death (it's certainly not death-CM), so you can decide for yourself."

### What have you released?

"We have 2 rehearsals (none for sale-CM), and there'll be a live tape in March, and we are working on a demo."

### Why a name like SUICIDE SOLUTION?

"It doesn't have a meaning, but we thought it sounded cool, so we just took it. You can also say, it's a kinda suicide solution, listening to us."
