Review by Lilli Koisser

Depths Of Despair by Systemhouse33: A Thrash Journey That Punches Hard Alright, let’s talk about Depths Of Despair. This 2013 release from India’s own Systemhouse33 is one wild ride through thrash metal chaos. It’s raw, unfiltered, and hits you like a freight train—exactly what you want when life feels too damn tame. Released under "Not On Label," this album doesn’t need some big-name backing to make noise; it just slams its way into your ears. The opening track, “Depths Of Despair,” sets the tone right off the bat. It’s heavy as hell, with riffs that feel like they’re clawing at your soul. The vocals are angry but not in a whiny way—they’re more like a battle cry. You can tell these guys aren’t just playing music; they’re spilling their guts out. And honestly? That’s why I remember this track. It’s not perfect—it’s messy, loud, and kind of unhinged—but isn’t that what despair actually feels like? Polished would’ve ruined it. Then there’s “Resistance.” Oh man, this one sticks with me for different reasons. The guitar work here is insane. Like, I caught myself air-guitaring in my room like a total dork. There’s something about how the rhythm shifts—it keeps you on edge, never letting you settle into comfort. It’s like a fight scene in an action movie where you don’t know who’s gonna win until the last second. Plus, the lyrics hit different when you’re feeling stuck in life, fighting against things you can’t even name. Feels personal, ya know? Tracks like “Courtesy And Protocol” and “Death Wish” keep the energy high, but they also show the band experimenting a bit. They’re not just repeating the same formula over and over. Same goes for “Armistice” and “Stark Revelations”—each song has its own vibe while staying true to the thrash roots. Honestly, it’s refreshing to hear a band take risks instead of playing it safe. But here’s the thing: this album isn’t for everyone. If you’re looking for radio-friendly hooks or polished production, you’ll probably bounce after the first minute. But if you dig real, gritty rock with teeth, this might be exactly what you didn’t know you needed. What blows my mind is that this came out of India back in 2013—a time when most people thought thrash belonged exclusively to the West. Systemhouse33 proved otherwise. They made something raw and authentic, carving their own space in a genre dominated by legends. So yeah, listening to Depths Of Despair feels like getting punched in the gut—but in a good way. It reminds you that music doesn’t have to be pretty to be powerful. Weirdly enough, it makes me think about how much we try to smooth out the rough edges in life. Maybe we should embrace the chaos a little more. Or maybe I’m just overthinking because my neck hurts from headbanging too hard. Either way, check this album out if you’re ready to dive deep into the mosh pit of emotions.
