Kill the Betrayers reviews (in portuguese)
METALCLUBE
Desde sua fundação, em 2005, o The Ordher vem sendo considerado um dos grandes nomes do metal extremo nacional. A experiência de seus músicos, que já atuaram em grupos tradicionais em anos anteriores culminou em “Kill the Betrayers”, segundo trabalho oficial da banda natural do sul do país.
Em 2007, o grupo liderado pelo guitarrista Fabiano Penna já havia conseguido chamar a atenção com o lançamento do estreante “Weaponize”, que trouxe um Death Metal encorpado, maduro e extremamente feroz. Nunca é demais lembrar que o The Ordher se formou com membros de duas antigas e importantes bandas brazucas: o Nephasth e o Rebaelliun.
Não falta, então, experiência e talento aos músicos Fabiano Penna (guitarra), Fábio Lentino (baixo e vocal), além do recém chegado baterista Cássio Canto, que substitui o antigo músico Maurício Weimar. Para quem já bateu cabeça com os petardos do primeiro disco, “Kill the Betrayers” se torna peça fundamental devido à evolução em termos de técnica, além de toda a continuidade dos arranjos velozes e riffs incendiantes que ecoaram no primeiro lançamento.
Assim que o disco se inicia com ‘Progeny’, teremos uma seqüência de características que fazem do The Ordher um dos grandes grupos brasileiros de Death Metal na atualidade. Para “Kill the Betrayers” a idéia é ainda melhor, pois o trio angariou uma dosagem a mais de técnica que resultou em algumas passagens que deixaram a tradicional velocidade do primeiro disco de lado.
‘Whiped, Crowned and Dead’, segunda faixa, é prova disso! Bases arrastadas e arranjos bem encaixados da bateria de Cássio Canto podem ser considerados os pontos positivos da segunda canção. A banda que sempre primou em grandes trabalhos instrumentais continuou altamente inspirada nas faixas ‘Fevered Priests’, ‘Conspirancy’ e ‘At One With the Darkness’.
Os exímios trabalhos do guitarrista Fabiano Penna fizeram da trabalhada ‘Hit The Wealk’ e da veloz ‘We Take Revenge’, duas gratas surpresas! O revezamento entre riffs consistentes, solos velozes e arranjos bem trabalhados acabaram comprovando o direcionamento eficaz da banda em “Kill the Betrayers”. Faixa por faixa, nota-se um alto grau de criatividade e diversidade entre momentos velozes e cadenciados.
A oitava faixa leva o nome do disco. Certamente estaria na canção um amontoado de fatores que desenhassem de forma clara a sonoridade e temática do The Ordher. Certíssimo, pois a faixa “Kill the Betrayers” relembra um pouco o primeiro disco e ainda apresenta peculiaridades interessantes! Engana-se quem imaginou que o grupo fosse perder com a saída do baterista Maurício Weimar. Por mais que o baterista tenha realizado um grande trabalho no primeiro disco, o novo membro Cássio Canto aparece com personalidade e se mostra preparado para substituir Maurício à altura. Tanto que em ‘The Devil´s Whip’ e ‘Retaliatation’, assim como em todo o percorrer do álbum o baterista abusa dos pedais duplos e viradas alucinantes!
A saidera com é com a breve ‘Earth Burns’, que mostra o lado mais técnico da banda, com solos bem trabalhados e um clima sombrio! Falando de forma clara, o The Ordher quebrou todas as barreiras em “Kill the Betrayers” e mostrou que a banda está em ótima fase, entrando definitivamente no primeiro escalão do metal extremo brasileiro! Não se esqueça de aumentar o volume! - Metalclube (http://www.metalclube.com/content/view/7954/31/)
WHIPLASH
Mesmo com uma divulgação precária, o The Ordher estreou com "Weaponize" em 2007 e rapidamente conquistou o respeito por parte dos amantes da música extrema. O trio gaúcho atropelou as dificuldades, driblou a concorrência e ainda conseguiu que seu álbum fosse lançado no mercado externo através do selo norte-americano Unique Leader Records. E tanta dedicação, como não poderia deixar de ser, permitiu que se colhessem os devidos frutos.
Assim sendo, os headbangers vinham aguardando com certa ansiedade o sucessor "Kill The Betrayers", em parte pelo novo álbum contar com a presença de um novo baterista. Mas a realidade é que não há motivos para apreensões, pois o novato Cássio Canto já fez várias apresentações com o The Ordher e foi indicado pelo próprio mestre Mauricio Weimar, que agora se dedica somente às aulas de música.
Como anunciado pela própria banda, as novas composições são uma extensão do Death Metal abordado no disco anterior, mas agora experimentando e acrescentando outros elementos. Que fique claro que o repertório não perdeu a conhecida brutalidade, mas as melodias foram exploradas mais profundamente e há muitos momentos mais cadenciados, como na excelente “Whipped, Crowned And Dead”.
E, em meio a este processo, o The Ordher está inclusive conseguindo acrescentar sua marca em um estilo que, muitas vezes, fica limitado à exibição da mera violência, armadilha que muitas bandas tentam, mas não conseguem escapar. Em suma: todos os esforços geraram um saudável dinamismo que torna "Kill The Betrayers" ainda mais interessante que "Weaponize".
Além de a produção estar mais polida, toda a preocupação em melhorar ainda mais o segundo álbum se estendeu ao projeto gráfico, agora mais condizente à proposta do The Ordher. A ilustração ficou ao encargo do brasileiro Marcelo HVC (Vader, Gorgoroth, Satyricon), que conseguiu retratar toda a visão conflitante e pessimista que o conjunto possui da atual sociedade.
O The Ordher novamente revela seu comprometimento com a qualidade e mostra a disposição de quem irá vencer sob seus próprios termos. O potencial é tal que "Kill The Betrayers" está sendo lançado no Brasil via Free Mind Records e, simultaneamente, na América do Norte e Europa, outra vez pela Unique Leader Records. E, enquanto o leitor lê estas linhas, o grupo provavelmente estará tocando pelo Velho continente ao lado do Vader e Marduk na "Funeral Nation Tour 2009". Nada mal mesmo! - Whiplash (http://whiplash.net/materias/cds/096730-ordher.html)
NOVOMETAL
Death Metal puro e intenso. É isso que a banda The Ordher apresenta em seu segundo material, e já adianto, é muito mais intenso que seu antecessor, Weaponize, de 2007.
Pô!, uma banda que já arrancou elogios de Alex Webster” (Cannibal Corpse) não poderia decepcionar. Pois bem, temos aqui algo que é porradaria do começo ao fim.
O play abre com a faixa “Progeny” que serve como aperitivo para a destruição que vem pela frente. Grande som, com vocal rasgado e guitarra com riffs pesados.
Pois bem, na seqüência vem “Whiped, Crowned and Dead”, canção que mostra que a The Ordher não é uma banda de death metal qualquer, e sim algo diferente, que consegue chamar atenção por sua rntensidade,técnica e peso
Entre os destaques, ressalva para a faixa titulo, “Kill the betrayers”, que explica porque a banda merece elogios e destaque.
Ah, não posso esquecer de parabenizar Fábio, Cássio e Fabiano, pelo ótimo trampo que não deixa a desejar em nada para bandas gringas.
Digo mais, é muito melhor que muita bandeca estrangeira, que as pessoas insistem em apontar como destaque. Vai entender. - Novometal (http://www.novometal.com/reviews/ler.php?id=2233)

WEAPONIZE REVIEWS
"Brazilian Death Metal has now its new great band. (…) We’re talking about eleven tracks heavy to the bone, very fast almost all the time and really aggressive. (…) Behind this ’wall’ of sonic obscenities, you’ll find excellent guitar riffs (some of them very technical indeed), deadly rhythm stuff, an incredible bass and drums work, infernal vocals, guitar leads incredibly well done, high level production, very tight playing (these guys play really well) and the way these guys master the style they play is great.
ROCK BRIGADE MAGAZINE - Brazil (8,5 out of 10)
"The Ordher basically stands for a brutalized assault of raw and extreme death metal as paved by both these two bands (Rebaelliun and Nepahsth) in the past. It is obvious that high quality and above all brutal stuff can be expected from The Ordher guys. It would be quite easy to name some major names having influenced the guitarist Penna to create these lethal deadly metal hymns. The band delivers the material filled with utter blast beat drumming to the more heavy groove oriented stuff like such as the song "Father" which happens to be one of my personal favorite tunes off the album. The whole 11 track output is an uncompromising maelstrom of brutal death metal. The vocalist Lentino’s brutal and deep deadly grunts definitely fit the whole death metal assault by The Ordher. (...) WEAPONIZE is a must for anyone digging the real Brazilian death …"
METAL-RULES WEBZINE (4,0 out of 5,0)
"The skills of the musicians is something really impressive. Beside the fact they all have great individual performances on the album, the same guys produced and mixed it, with great results. Lentino’s vocals are raw but very comprehensible, and all the bass lines played by him are very heavy. The riffs and guitar leads of Fabiano are killer, with a lot of feeling as well as Weimar’s drums, sometimes extremely brutal, sometimes heavier, with groove. These variations make "Weaponize" an excellent album. From the title track to the last shot, "Blessed Be All Wars", we have a technical and violent sound. Tracks such as "You’ve Become My Enemy", "Rise", "Father" and the very fast "Shot" will be able to break some necks and live will crush every fans of the band."
WHIPLASH WEBZINE - Brazil (9,0 out of 10)
"An album that kicks you in the stomach. It’s brutal from the first deadly second to the final tone. Brutal death metal, written by the Brazilian band. To those of you who remember Rebaelliun, Mr. Penna is an essential part of The Ordher. "Weaponize" is basically a good death metal album. It has all the necessary ingredients and there’s enough variation to make it last several spins. That the production is strong is of course an addition to the positive remarks, and the band slows down a bit in the middle of the album is also in favour of the release. It takes "Weaponize" as a whole a bit more dynamic than it already is."
INHOTEP WEBZINE - Norway (5,0 out of 6,0)
"Not everything on this album is speed, tracks such as "Rise" and "Father" are heavier and slower, tracks that will please the traditional death metallers. The facility that this band have to turn from fast parts to heavy ones is their great mark, as we can hear on tracks like "Won’t Stand Behind The Line" and "Through The Walls". With "Weaponize" THE ORDHER has proved that they came to stand and can go even further."

THE ORDHER FIRST ALBUM
CONFIRMED:
The debut album of THE ORDHER named WEAPONIZE will be released in October 23rd in America and Europe. The album was recorded and mixed in the home-town of THE ORDHER, Porto Alegre, RS (southernmost state in Brazil) during February and March of 2007. The fans of extreme metal will be surprised with 11 songs not only based on extreme velocity and lots and lots of blast beats, but also with extremely heavy guitars and basses in low velocities passages, potent vocal lines and impressive lyrics (and some very interesting surprises within the extreme metal genre). The release of the debut album of THE ORDHER is one of the most expected releases for 2007 and I guarantee you that the band will not disappointed anyone who wait until now!!!!

WELCOME TO THE BLOG OF THE ORDHER (Brazilian Death Metal Band)
Welcome to the blog in honor to the Brazilian Death Metal Band THE ORDHER. My intention with this blog is to publish (maybe diarily, maybe not...ehehehehe) some of the pictures that I took from the band during the first rehearsals sessions in 2006.
Below you will find the complete history of the THE ORDHER and what are the main plans of the band. Such text was "stolen" from the official web page from the band (www.theordher.com) but I know that the guys will not kill me for that....ehehehehehehe
If you want to see more pictures or hear some of the songs from THE ORDHER, you can also access the adress www.myspace.com/theorderextreme. Any comment, suggestion and criticism will be really appreciated, for me and certainly for Fabiano Penna, Fábio Lentino and Maurício Weimar!!!
HAIL THE ORDHER
Fabio Lentino (vox/bass), Mauricio Weimar (drums) and Fabiano Penna (guitars): this is the team called THE ORDHER. They’re three of the most talented musicians in the Brazilian Metal scene, actually ex members of two of the biggest acts that came out from Brazil on the late 90’s but already split up: REBAELLIUN and NEPHASTH. Fabio Lentino and Mauricio Weimar, both from NEPHASTH, the responsible for two well acclaimed albums (Mighty Music), a huge Brazilian tour (shared the stage with bands such as HATE ETERNAL, BEHEMOTH and VADER) and a status of the most promising band from South America on the last years. Fabiano Penna, leader and songwriter of REBAELLIUN, the combo that made two albums and two EP’s (Hammerheart Records), 4 European tours (some beside bands as DEICIDE, CANNIBAL CORPSE and VADER), a Brazilian tour, and that even today keeps alive a strong fan base worldwide. This union could not happen in a better time, after the end of their previous bands; they’re now together under the name THE ORDHER.
The short history
The project started around April ’05, when the group did the first rehearsals still checking out how would be playing together… quickly they all were aware that it would work out very well, so the true work took place instead the first jam sessions, and music started to be developed. The band wrote a lot of stuff, recorded it many times and kept trying some different ways, till they reached what they now classify as the music of THE ORDHER. So between July and August ’06 they recorded their official demo with 3 songs: “Rise”, “The Poison” and “Father”, a stuff made to reach even record labels and Metal fans all over the world, since band decided to make the songs available on the web straight from their official website at www.theordher.com as well as their page at Myspace ( www.myspace.com/theorderextreme ).
The music
Although most of people involved in the extreme Metal world think that it will be a mix of REBAELLIUN and NEPHASTH, THE ORDHER is not just the result of the end of two great bands. Of course fans will recognize the sound of the powerful voice of frontman Fabio Lentino, will once more get shocked with how fast and tight is Mauricio Weimar on the drum kit, and will also get familiar with the vicious guitar riffs and twisted guitar leads of Fabiano Penna. But this band is not based only on the Death Metal camp, and does not depend on speed only to sound as powerful and heavy as the music of the demo sounds. THE ORDHER use and abuse of all kinds of elements available for Metal genre and even Rock genre to try to sound unique in an age where most of bands sound just as one…
