Coagulating Darkness
by Hellripper
supported by 9 fans who also own “Path To Empyrean”
Pretty much the best Black/Speed Metal I've listened to since I learned about Evil Invaders and Vulture. Everything you'd love to be reminded of about this musical era is there. The influences are what you'd expect too: Motörhead, Venom, Bathory, early Slayer, Celtic Frost; aggressive vocals, tortured guitar solos, pounding drums; everything is fast, clear and still a little grimy, but without reverb cranked up to the max. Amazing band, amazing album.

Wicked blackened/thrash. A great holdover while waiting for their new album on Peaceville to come out.

Un album dense et une atmosphère oppressante. Mélodique et puissant. 3/5

Patiently Waiting For Wonderful Things
by Corrupt Moral Altar
supported by 8 fans who also own “Path To Empyrean”
Absolute banger of a track, opens with some punky riffs before descending into spazzy grindcore madness. Can't recommend this band enough.
