Rescuing heavy metal from the back rooms of American sports bars and putting it in the earbuds of indie-rockers has earned bands like Mastodon, The Sword, and Oakland’s Saviours the backhanded sobriquet “hipster metal.” Still, that’s hardly a fair assessment of the group’s sound, which crams black-tarred gobs of Venom and St. Vitus into a frenzied, buzzing, welt-raising assault with zero irony. Last year’s sophomore effort for Kemado, Into Abaddon, is every bit as punishing as fellow thrash revivalists Skeletonwitch.
