Asphagor (Austria)




Asphagor (Austria)

Asphagor and his great album "The cleansing" teach us that not everything is said in extreme metal. The Austrians surprise us with such a composition of an album that takes us from the most extreme to the most subtle but always in the darkest environment. Crushing guitars that can also be melodic, a powerful voice that does not faint that combines guttural and darker vocals, and a huge drums. They can take you from the frenetic to the darkest dance near your death. The Delphic Throne, Sun Devourer, The Solipsist, (In The) Sea Of Empty Shells Each of these titles make up the first part of the album that is really very violent and leads us through a storm of violent and extreme settling as well as dark and cold. Then the cd. continues to take shape and becomes an indomitable animal with individual pieces such as: Circle Of Abaddon, Monodia (He, My Wall), Aurora Night, and the homonym "The Cleansing" To close with a flourish a cd. that I think for lovers of black metal and extreme metal will never disappoint. Very professional sound achieved and a great work of world under. If you are interested in knowing more about this band you can listen to their previous albums "Anti 2013" "Havoc 2010".
