Osobnosti scény reagují na smrt proslulého kytaristy:
CHEMICAL VOMIT: "We are deeply saddened by the passing of TERRORIZER/ex-NAPALM DEATH guitarist Jesse Pintado and we issue our condolences to the family and friends of Jesse. Both TERRORIZER and NAPALM DEATH have influenced us greatly, especially on the new material. We hope Jesse is still grinding out there, wherever he is. R.I.P."
NAPALM DEATH: "The band are shocked and saddened by the sudden death of Jesse Pintado this past Sunday. Please expect a statement shortly. Jesse Pintado was a member of NAPALM DEATH from 1989-2004."
BENEDICTION: "BENEDICTION are completely gutted about the passing away of our brother Jesse Pintado. He had been a close friend and a part of our collective lives since he came to live in Birmingham, England in 1989. Our thoughts are with his friends and family. Our thoughts and support also go out to the lads in NAPALM DEATH and TERRORIZER. It is like losing a direct member of our own family to us in BENEDICTION. He has left behind a fine legacy in the music he made with his bands over the years. Go listen to it and celebrate what he gave to us all.
You are with us forever, Jesse, in your music and all the times we shared together getting drunk in Birmingham."
Anders Jakobson (dříve NASUM, nyní COLDWORKER):
"If you are a constant reader of the metal press you already know this, but this last weekend Jesse Pintado passed away at a hospital in Holland.
"Jesse was — obviously for his work in TERRORIZER, NAPALM DEATH and LOCK-UP — a real character in the grindcore world.
"On stage he was sort of a dark and mysterious person who didn't really do much than just stand on his side of the stage, headbanging himself sweaty while bashing out one cool riff after the other.
"Off stage he was a warm and funny person with a big heart and great knowledge in most subjects, be it food or extreme music.
"He also snored like a fucking saw mill.
"We did that long, long tour back in 2000 and I remember that on the second day of the tour Jesse brought us Swedes on a tour of Paris, walking up the hills to the Sacré Coeur. I was totally not prepared for that sort of hospitality from that dark and mysterious person.
"A few hours later Jesse showed us how to play 'Dead Shall Rise', but it wasn't until close to seven weeks later we played on stage with Jesse.
These are memories I will cherish forever.
"In January I wrote a blog about the rumours regarding the musical content on TERRORIZER's long-awaited second album. I was not happy about the talk about 13-minute tracks, chants and classical piano parts. As a TERRORIZER fan all I wanted to hear was that classic grindcore sound that did such a huge impact on me back in the late '80s that I wanted to play it myself. TERRORIZER wasn't an original band back then, taking lots of inspiration from REPULSION, DISCHARGE and probably even NAPALM DEATH, and I didn't see the point in changing something that was perfect.
"That was what I wrote. This blog was recently wrongfully used by a writer for Sweden's Close-Up magazine who twisted this into how angry and bitter I was about the new TERRORIZER, and used that as a big part of an interview with Jesse. The result is almost a constructed beef between Jesse and I which I felt was totally uncalled for. I loved Jesse.
"I bought the magazine last Saturday and read it properly during the Sunday thinking about meeting Jesse to set things straight. To know now that Jesse was on his death bed at this time sends shivers down my spine.
"I've listened to 'Darker Days Ahead' a couple of times and I am even supposed to review it for the paper where I work. I can't say that I've liked it so far, but I will certainly listen to is in a totally different way now. It will remain Jesse Pintado's grindcore legacy for years to come.
"My thoughts are with all the people who have played with him and of course his family in L.A.. Rest in peace."

ANDROMEDA
HAVOK - New Eyes
16 minut šťavnatého technického thrashingu a dva covery od kapely, která má řemeslo v paži. Je v tom ta patřičná lehkost, drive i finesa, které člověk od téhle žánrové generace automaticky čeká. Jako drobný příkrm v čase thrashového hladu obstojně zasytí!

ENVY - Eunoia
Trochu rozpačitý počin po čtyřech letech od minulého alba "The Fallen Crimson". Nedotažené, možná zbytečně stručné album stojí na pouhých náznacích síly, kterou skupina v minulosti disponovala. Ale hezké momenty s typickým rukopisem se najdou, to zase jo.

ISBJÖRG - Falter, Endure
Objev na první poslech srovnatelný s Nory MEER, Dánové ISBJÖRG uchvacují podobně hravým a progresí provoněným poprockem. Ty melodie, klavír a vzletné aranže včetně sebevědomých vokálů mě napoprvé prostě dostaly do kolen. Uvidíme, zda první dojem vydrží.

PAGANIZER - Flesh Requiem
Rogga Johansson nepolevuje. PAGANIZER jsou jednou z jeho hlavních kapel a samozřejmě doručují švédskou deathmetalovou klasiku. Rychlejší kousky jsou standardem bez překvapení, osvěžení naopak přinášejí ty pomalejší. Nejlepší skladba je ta úplně poslední.

SENTIENT HORROR - In Service Of The Dead
SENTIENT HORROR narukovali k mrtvým do služby a v novém zaměstnání se jim daří náramně. Lásku k (převážně) švédskému death metalu nezapřou, hlavně pak k prvotnímu chrastění v režii ENTOMBED. Živelná OSDM deska s lehkou thrashovou patinou. Šlape to skvěle.

PRVNÍ HOŘE - Achtung, Sultan!
Urzovci jsou zpět a vyráží do klubů, radujme se! To by asi tak stačilo. Snad jen drobná poznámka. Minulá deska byla a je až příliš dokonalá. Nová je dokonalá poněkud méně, je pouze vynikající. Kdo by to byl čekal?

ONE WITH THE RIVERBED - Succumb
Atmosférický black metal / post-metal. Hodně odlehčená produkce plná vybrnkávaček, náladových pasáží a košatých atmosférických vsuvek. Zuby se moc necení, možná občas mléčné jedničky. Příjemný poslech, vyloženou hitovku však na "Succumb" nenajdete.
