Every other month is Halloween for Six Feet Under vocalist Chris Barnes, isn't it? That seems to be the case with this death metal act's newest full-length release Crypt of the Devil. The morbidly cheap lyrical themes are to be expected and the straightforward, but punishing guitar riffage is pretty good, all things considered; members of Cannabis Corpse worked with Barnes this time around, so I guess that was a safe bet. Though it's far from bad IMO, there's a lot on here that I'm sure you've heard elsewhere on previous SFU albums. If you're one of those ghouls who can easily flock to non-flashy dm with an excessive amount of groove, Crypt of the Devil may be right up your alley; however, if you've an irrational disdain for Shut the Fuck Up or are completely indifferent towards the band, then my advice would be to simply ignore the record.
