The four-piece of V-Anger formed on the ninth of January, 2012 in the city of Milan. It didn’t take the band long before they recorded their first EP, which has pretty much been lost to time up, sadly. It was at this point they met Marco Mastrobuono of Hour of Penance, eventually heading into King Recording Studio to work with him to record, mix, and master their debut full-length album, In Shovel We Trust, which was released through Sliptrick Records. Since it dropped in 2014, the album has received a great deal of praise, leading to plenty of touring the following year. But was this first official outing one really worth checking out, or is the journey through the depths of hardcore and thrash more one of worship than anything else?

When it comes to Bandcamp, there’s a slew of new metal material popping up every single day. Once in a while, I happen across one that, even though not in my review que or submitted for consideration one way or the other, I feel should be given some attention, whether it positive or negative. In this case, I happened upon a band called Cobentrice, who have unleashed their debut full-length album, Switch Dementia, through Narcoleptica Productions.
