(Description by C. Conrad)

Ceremoniously ending a silence of approximately three years, Necrogosto returned with a vengeance in 2023 with the cassette and CD releases of its latest studio recording, "Sudakaos." With a title that appropriately evokes both its South American homeland and the chaotic nature of its artform, "Sudakaos" resumes where the previous "Ancestral Bestiality" EP (2020) and self-titled demo (2017) left off. More specifically, the eight new tracks included once again provide a current-day glimpse into the Brazilian scene of thirty-plus years ago, where legends like Sarcófago, Holocausto, Necrobutcher, and their evil kindred spirits ruled. Additionally, "Sudakaos" directly pays homage to its ancestral compatriots with Necrogosto's included rendition of "Black Church," of Insulter and Sextrash fame. The production of this release is noticeably crisper and boasts better definition of the instruments and vocals than previous recordings. This is not at all to say that the band has strayed from the savagery of its roots. Instead, the tracks on "Sudakaos" are more impactful and reflect an enhanced and more memorable resemblance to the studio recordings of the greats of the Brazilian scene. In presenting this recording on vinyl for the first time, NWN! has fortunately opted to include the band's self-titled demo tracks in all their original glory, thus providing the existing bookends to Necrogosto's ongoing reign of chaos.
