THE AMENTA
“Flesh Is Heir”
(Listenable)
I know that I reviewed an EP by this band earlier but to be honest I don’t remember too much about it other than I sorta liked it. I hope this new album will do the same to me as that EP did, or better. I’m not averse to this being a high light of 2013. Apart from hearing that EP I have very little knowledge of THE AMENTA. But from what I hear I can make this out as a death metal band. I get a Vader vibe in the attack of this album’s opening track. It takes me back to a time when death metal was simpler to understand. But that didn’t last too long. This to me is like mixing prog with Devin Townsend with Vader with Morbid Angel with anything else that goes. You might think it is one thing to begin with but at the end you sit with a whole different bag of references. Despite it messing with my head I have to admit to liking this. Anders Ekdahl
