Really enjoying this. Very melodic with just the right amount of raw. Surprised it's not getting more praise.

3.9 excellentErwann S. STAFF | January 2nd 24

Ecdysis is where Horrendous' formula of US OSDM, Swedish melodies, and "proggy" song structures" came into fruition, with a superb production that lets every lil element shine in a balanced way - it ain't too raw, nor too proggy!!

4.0 excellentChino smoking it up! | October 30th 18

This album starts simply beautiful and awesome. The leading pinkfloydish melting solos are just so rcool! I'm getting more of the general vibe I got on Idol which I'm fuckin lovin, only with a more rsludgy or doomy tone and distortion on the guitar riffs.

Bump

4.0 excellentAlabaster Jones | August 22nd 17

One of the leaders of the OSDM-revival movement, Horrendous have the appearance of a typical band in the scene, but execute their material the way OSDM-revival should be done: sticking to the roots of death metal while also branching out and seeing what ideas can click while still retaining that undeniable OSDM aesthetic. Ecdysis is truly where Horrendous began coming in to their own, offering a modern twist on the classic Swedish melodic death metal scene as well as the American death metal of the late 80's and early 90's. The production here is absolutely pristine; you can hear everything (even the bass) very clearly, but everything still has an organic feel that supports Horrendous' style of ebbing and flowing rather than just simply bashing your head in. The songwriting improved from The Chills, incorporating tons of influences from just about every death metal style you can think of and mixing them together to create something that sounds both reminiscent and new. It's been said before, but it's still true: Horrendous and bands like them make the whole OSDM-revival thing worth defending.

Bump

4.5 superbBenc | November 9th 14

Ecdysis is an excellent album that showcases the best of old and new-school death metal. Every riff is complex and emotionally charged, and the drumming is phenomenal.

Bump

0.0 emester | October 14th 14

A love letter to classic Swedeath. While it may be a bit to melodic in some places and the vocals could be
worked on, Horrendous still have created an album that is the exact opposite of what their name entails.
Ecdysis is consistent satisfying without being mind blowing. 3.6/5

Bump

3.0 goodAngryNeighbor | October 7th 14

'this is probably a badfuckingass record'
I'd fucking love that to be true, but it's not.
The songs are just not that much interesting and evil like on the Chills..
