Just from looking at the artwork for this album I’ve come to expect this to be death metal. Yeah, you shouldn’t judge an album by its cover but sometimes it is hard not to do so. This one has a cover that screams death to me. There is something to this that promises a blast along the lines of early Morbid Angel and Death. And it does deliver in those regions. This is death metal that is neither too technical nor too simple. It is just right in every department and without it making this a weak album in any ways. This one surprised me by being just death metal, nothing more and nothing less. And if that isn’t enough for you to check this out you’ve either overdosed on Cryptopsy or any other overly technical bands or you have lost all interest in death metal. Anders Ekdahl
