German band's new wave of death/black metal, where
combined guttural voices black metal, incorporating the musical technique of
rich and varied from both schools, with enough changes of rhythm and a sound
compelling but rather commercial for my taste. The music is an ode to the good
work, dominated by good quality riffs with good musicians that go perfectly
with both the drums and bass guitars, harmonies are very good Bill, a mixture
of sounds that AMORPHIS/HYPOCRISY/DIMMU BORGIR evokes me a mix of these three
bands, which makes this work rather hard to forget for those who like the sound
more offering new death/black metal harmonious of both styles. The album
contains 11 tracks of the same court, where paramount is good sound, with
mixtures of death/black metal at all, made to attract followers. If you like
the style of these bands this work without fear to be wrong is to you.
Succubus
- "Into The Heptagram's Maelström" (Wolfsgrimm Records). Thomas-Morris:
All Vocals, Matthias: Lead, Rhythm & Accoustic Guitars, Dennis: Lead &
Rhythm Guitars, Christian: Bass, Marek: Drums, form this great Death Metal band
from Germany. Lyrically, the band remains in previous styles in obscure
mysticism. After the introduction of the track 'Blackwater Witch' a real
journey without a break for the fifth track 'The Last Door' ... perfect work of
guitars and excellent drums and bass reminding a lot of the best Swedish bands.
"Necromantic Heptagram" is a track that draws much attention, perfect
in its parameters, clean sound with destroying vocal. "The Crypt (ic)
Choir", "Call of the Sirens", "March of the Undead
Hordes", "The End and the Beginning", complete this devastating
death metal album.
