New metal coming all the way from the northeast of Brazil in the city of Belem, BEHÖLDER tackles the interesting possibilities of mixing the caustic anarchic visions of crust punk with black metal elements. This band is fairly new and has only released this teaser of an EP in 2019.

DIE HARD IN THE DUNGEON is a short four track EP that only makes it over the 9 minute mark but in its brevity provides a blueprint for a future blackened crust punk sound that finds a lo-fi production job along with grinding riffs and cymbal-rich drumming frenzies of Helltyrant framing the tortured vocal style of Gatecrüsher who also plays guitar.

L. Grinder on bass has the perfect name for this band as it’s never quite clear if this is punk, black metal or grindcore. It’s uncomfortably in between. In all honesty, this is really nothing more than a modern demo released digitally but an interesting snapshot of a band’s early years from a part of the world that doesn’t crank out metal music. Promising but as it is, just OK.
