Description
Hailing from the confluence of infectious disease, arbitrary violence, and rivers of industrial filth that is St. Louis MO, FISTER have been sublimating their brutally toxic environment into a deliberate and belligerent challenge to the eardrums since 2009. Comprised of drummer Kirk Gatterer, guitarist/vocalist Marcus Newstead, and Kenny Snarzyk on bass and vocals, this trio converts an eclectic swarm of extreme metal influences into the sonic analogue of trench warfare. FISTER now celebrate their first 10 year anniversary releasing 'Decade of Depression' in reference to Slayer 's legendary live album 'Decade of Agression' , featuring a stunning series of crushing, planet splitting, poisonous cover songs ! .Admittedly, Metal Injection got it right : '"FISTER have one of the ugliest sounds in all of modern doom and will leave you feeling broken and battered, reveling in their destructive impulses. >TRACKLISTING - BAND TRACK BY TRACK COMMENTARY :1) City of The Living Dead - FABIO FRIZZI< We are big fans of calling back to some of our favorite movies. Brain Candy and Gates of Hell are two of our biggest favorites to reference. We originally talked about throwing a section of this song into an original we were going to use for our side of the split we did with Chrch but abandoned that idea. Andrew at Fathoming Heavy Podcast encouraged us to do something with it one day and we realized it would be the perfect intro to the record. I hope Fabio Frizzi doesn't hate it. > 2) For Whom the Bell Tolls - METALLICA< Who wasn't a huge Metallica fan growing up ?, Ride The Lightning is one of their finest records and what Fister record is complete without bells on it ?"3) Mandatory Suicide - SLAYER "We could've picked any song on South of Heaven and it would've been awesome. we talked about either doing this track or Spill The Blood. This song just seemed to fit better."
