Recorded by Dennis Munoz (Solstice) and Stuart "Batlord" Laurence (Agony Column/Ignitor) The UncreatedDemo features the recording lineup of guitarist Necron, vocalist Vladibeer Reebs, bassist T.A., and drummer Dennis Sanders and serves as a disease-ridden apocalyptic precursor to the band's forthcoming Book Of The Worm full-length.
"Consider HOD 2013 to be the snake eating itself and a bigger snake eating the smaller snake, a kind of infinite (and horrifically malign) Ouroboros." - Decibel
"HOD has the most lethal attack, commanding ugly fucking blackened death slabs punctuated with micro-rending buzzsaw leads. I also like that, if you read all the song titles of The Uncreated Demo together, it becomes full-on badassery..." - Last Rites
"...a thrashing charge of hybridized black and death metal that's as dynamic and technically impressive as it is primally appealing." - No Clean Singing
"These three songs are some of the best I've heard from the US death metal scene in years, maybe ages." - Voices From The Darkside
"Right from the beginning...the band pummels the listener with straight ahead death metal insanity... an absolutely stellar demo that really whets the appetite for more from the band." - Sea Of Tranquility
