Sounds Like This debut album from the Spanish stoner/doom/thrash band Rhino has just been picked up by the American label Arctic Music for rerelease here in the States later this year, but we've got the original Spanish release from Odio Sonoro here, and fans of ultra heavy stoner metal will bug out for Rhino's ferocious blend of brutal sludgecore, soaring dark rock, and ragged thrash metal. Imagine a cross between High On Fire, Alice In Chains circa Dirt, Danzig's first two albums, Kreator, and Crowbar, with an awesome, deep, soulful lead singer, and you'll have a rough idea of what Rhino sounds like...sure, those references do kind of look odd together, but that's the best comparison I can come up for Rhino. They've managed to create a masive riff heavy sound that is ULTRA catchy and impossibly rockin', enough that I easily see these guys getting HUGE with fans of stuff like Black Label Society, but Breed The Chosen One is way, way heavier than anything you'd hear on rock radio, with one foot in raw doom metal and the other in bestial, old school thrash metal, at times channeling the sound of High On Fire's Blessed Black Wings backed up by a chorus of undead Layne Staley's, or Slayer forcefed a steady diet of Southern Lord albums. Man, I love this album, and I've been playing it nonstop since it came in. Awesome riffs, thunderous drumming, wicked vocals that switch between sick tortured howling to that Layne Staley-style croon, massive stretches of molten doom, ugh....this album rules. The artwork is awesome, all black and red illustrations of goat's heads and demonic thugs, and the song titles are pure luciferian kitsch: ""Name The Horn Bearer", "Exposed To The Rotten Sun", aND "Goat Behind The Gates" stand out as some of my favorites. And that awesome final track "Goat Behind The Gates" recasts Alice In Chains as pure Sabbathian doom...awesome. Sure, alot of Rhino's lyrics are flat-out dumb and read like Glenn Danzig's writings on PCP, but it works fine with Rhino's brand of crushing biker doomthrash. Nice package for this album, with a six-panel digipack and 12-page accompanying booklet.
CRUCIAL BLAST (USA)

With no accompanying press release, sparse information in the booklet and very little to be found on t..internet, Spain..s Rhino must be more than happy to let their music do the talking for them. Part stoner doom, part thrash, this is as heavy as their moniker suggests. Had Metallica recorded "St Anger" as a Down/Goatsnake tribute and invited Spice (Ex-Spiritual Beggars) to add his immense voice, "Breed The Chosen One" could have been the result. If this sounds promising as a blueprint, the reality is even better. "Name The Horn Bearer" and the epic closer "Goat Behind The Gates" are simply stunning examples of pure doom, while "Loaded With Thunder" echoes proto-thrashers Hellhammer. Safe to say that if Rhino were American they..d have been snapped up by a major label by now. But just for the moment they remain our little secret.

Con un gran bagaje musical a sus espaldas y con influencias referentes del Rock más bestia, el Doom más enfermizo y el Metal más pesado, nace en Bilbao Rhino, una banda que descarga temas monolíticos y brutales caracterizados por unas guitarras aplastantes, baterías atronadoramente apocalípticas y voces agresivas. Sumado a las toneladas de actitud de sus miembros y a la oscuridad de sus composiciones, Rhino se muestra como una de las bandas más bestias y brutales de todo el estado. Formados en diciembre de 2004 de la mano de Javier Gálvez, guitarra y voz, (Burial, From The Cross, Left Hand Riders) y Julen Gil, bateria, (Subliminal, Positiva), la banda empezó a labrarse una buena reputación en directo al mismo tiempo que lanzaron su demo debut “Name the horn bearer”, ya con Miguel Moral como bajista. A comienzos de 2007, y después de un año de duro trabajo en los escenarios junto a bandas como Warchetype, Moho, Positiva, Bort o Moksha, Sergio Robles sustituye como bajista a Miguel Moral justo antes de publicar su primer trabajo, titulado “Breed the chosen one”, vía Odio Sonoro/ 7th Gate records y producido por Rubén Zea Mays, siendo aclamado por medios especializados como Terrorizer(UK), This Is Rock(SP), Metal Maniacs(USA) o Rock Hard(SP). Después de tocar en varios festivales (Bracara Extreme fest, AgroSkate…) y de dar bolos junto a Gorefest, Monarch, Lords of Bukkake, Taint o Grey Daturas, RHINO fichan por Arctic Music Group(USA), preparando así la salida de su segundo largo “Dead Throne Monarch”, para publicarlo en verano de 2008.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

With big experience on their backs and with influences of the most bestial Rock, the sickest Doom and the Heaviest Metal, born in Bilbao Rhino, a band that delivers brutal and monolithic songs with blasting guitars, thundering apocalyptic drums and aggressive vocals. Plus the attitude of their members and the obscurity of their songwriting, Rhino is shown as one of the most punishing, arrogant and merciless bands of their country. Formed in december of 2004 by Javier Gálvez, guitars and vocals, (Burial, From The Cross, Left Hand Riders) and Julen Gil, drums (Subliminal, Positiva) the band released in January of 2006 their demo “ Name the horn bearer” with Miguel Moral on bass and start to gain recognition as a brutal live act. At the beginning of 2007 and after a year of hard work on the stage along bands like Moho, Shisha Pangma, Bort, Moksha or Warchetype, Sergio Robles replaced M. Moral on bass just before the band released in april the critically aclaimed debut album BREED THE CHOSEN ONE (OdioSonoro/7th Gate Records), produced by Rubén ZeaMays, and get great reviews from the media such as Terrorizer (UK), Rock Hard (SP), Metal Maniacs (USA) or This Is Rock (SP). After playing in several summer festivals ( Portugal..s Bracara Extreme Fest, Gernika..s Agroskate…) and shows with bands like Gorefest, Monarch, Lords of Bukkake, Taint or Grey Daturas, RHINO gets signed to Arctic Music Group(USA) for the release, in summer 08, of their new album DEAD THRONE MONARCH.
