pretty much another masterpiece... sometimes shreddy, sometimes thrashy, sometimes spacey... but always complex and multi-layered. No unpleasasnt surprises of any kind

an awesome comeback stint from the UK veterans; solid proggy-speed/thrash of the old school, not always similar to their old style. There's a new guitar player in the line-up, and the man is unstoppable, filling in the space with brilliant virtuoso guitar work.

this is not really heavy metal, at least for most of the time; this is a mixture of thrash and groovy post-thrash, a hesitation between the old and the new school. Strange unusual stuff, with some of the songs combining furious thrashing with calm balladic sections... not so bad

I don't understand why this band continue to be flagged around as just death/grindcore hybriders... their music is very technical death metal, complex multi-layered stuff that is easily a highlight even on the very competitive Polish scene.

This new opus is no exception, another intricate hyper-active collection of songs, a delight to fans of Deeds of Flesh, Spawn of Possession, Arsebreed... the Czechs T.O.O.H. as well

excellent stuff, complex varied progressive with a lot of interesting twists, think a mix of Psychotic Waltz's "A Social Grace", early Canvas Solaris and Sanctuary's "Into the Mirror Black". Very good soulful clean vocals as well

twisted unusual stuff... echoes of Demilich, Cosmic Atrophy, Timeghoul as well (the guys make a cover of the latter on the "Reek of Putrescine" single); atonal arhythmia crossed with more linear intense passages. Interesting, strange music

As Distillator the guys were doing a much better job, very intriguing technical old school thrash... here what we have is average modern thrash/death with slight progressive pretensions, think poor man's Darkane. Perfectly skippable

Sadus meets Hellwitch... an old school technical and quite aggressive death/thrash hybrid; a bit more complex than the previous two albums, and probably superior

much more diverse than previous recordings... there's thrash, but there's also progressive, doom, power, speed, death, psychedelia... an interesting, unusual combination that will take a few listens in order to sink in. Great leads all around, though; the lead guitarist is the absolute star of the show.

boring tedious 90's post-thrash; this is so far from Dark Angel having in mind that two members of the thrash legends participated here... perfectly skippable by the old school thrash fanbase

mighty stuff... classic speed/thrash, as expected. Can't wait to hear the full-length...

Wow, what a fresh-sounding, classic metal masterpiece; great stuff! power, doom, progressive, heavy, thrash, speed... a most handsome melting pot of styles. And this vocalist... a stunning very passionate tenor. Venezuela has talent, that's for sure. A very pleasant surprise

there's not much thrash here; this is quite comparable to the band's debut, "Half in Shadows" (1994), a progressive power/doom metal mixture not far from the 90's Swedish wave (Memento Mori, Veni Domine, Abstrakt Algebra, Pathos, etc.).

very weird, outlandish music; shades of Demilich's "Nespithe", Molested's "Blod-Draum"... visionary old school death metal with both speedy and atmospheric parts mixed together. A lot of captivating melodic tunes as well

this is retro thrash/death actually, very technical and twisted stuff, with nice atmospheric etudes. A very interesting listen with echoes of the 90's Dutch school (Creepmime, Rhadamantys, Phlebotomized)

this has very little to do with death metal; this is very strange weird music which can pass for progressive, alternative, rock, doom... minimalistic psychotic stuff that distantly resembles early Alchemist (Australia)

those who loved the previous offering "Their Worm Never Dies" will do no wrong getting the album here; excellent classic tight, compact technical/progressive death, no show-off complexities, no overt brutality, no outlandish gimmicks... the essence of the genre provided in a bit over half an hour.

excellent modern technical/progressive thrash/death; complex multi-layered stuff with echoes of Darkane, Vektor, Altered Aeon, Biomechanical... short intricate roller-coasters and longer complex excursions take turns for a thrilling , not very predictable ride

Ha, if this isn't a big surprise... Mr. Mike Patton gives us vintage classic thrash, fast energetic stuff helped by none other than Scott Ian (Anthrax) and Dave Lombardo (Slayer); very good music, for old school speed and thrash fans mostly.

There's quite a bit of early Pestilence, too; a blend of "Consuming Impulse" and "Testimony of the Ancients"
