Riffs are so hard that the vocals don't really matter much to me bThat said I don't hate the vocalist. He's just pretty standard for that kind of style imo. Didn't know about the new song but I'll check it. Not normally big on orchestral stuff but I could see this guy's pulling it off

Fr I don’t pay attention to vocals in like at least 60% of metal I listen to. If they’re great it adds to the experience but I couldn’t care less it’s just screaming or growling which is dumb to begin with

Good move coming back to it Cas. Feel like these guys dish out not only some of the sickest riffs in dm but also some of the most unique all around

This definitely set a standard of sorts, not sure if they'll ever be able to top it themselves

Probably not. Chalky is sorely missed.

Definitely not holding my breath on them topping this one. I will say if anyone loving Scepter hasn't heard the debut you're doing yourself a major disservice. That one is neck and neck with this one in terms of quality. It seems to get slept on compared to this one. Review thread over there just got to it's second page recently lol. So go jam that shit if any of you haven't and help me bump that shit until it too has 12 pages!

I dig their most recent two albums a whole bunch, but without Chalky they can't top this



This is fucking perfection



Their first album is really good too, but this is next level imo

The riffs are outrageous and this vocal performance is honestly up there with Lord Worm on None So Vile for me

Vox are infinitely better than on None so Vile



Riffs are probably slightly better on NoS tho

I mean this and None So Vile are top tier, trying to think of a dm performance I like as much as those
