While Ulcerate have really stepped up their atmospheric sound and improved the flow of their songs, it rsometimes falls into a similar trap which hampered their debut; dynamics. Yes, they have now whole-rheartedly embraced the fast/slow dynamic which was introduced on Everything Is Fire, but the only thing rholding them back now, is the constant atmospheric density. Texturally, much of this album ends up at the rsame level; a constant contrapuntal assault, with not too much diversity in the riffs. rThat being said, the riffs are incredible, and the atmosphere is even bleaker than previous outings, creating ra fantastic album. It's just that now instead of pummeling you into the ground with jarring riffs and rbreakneck pace, Ulcerate choose to weigh heavily on your soul, suffocating you under a constant wall of rsound.

It all sounds the same: crushing, dense, nigh impenetrable heaviness. There's no variation, which makes for an extremely boring and thereby ineffectual listen.

EiF was better but Ulcerate album so it's still amazing.

Masterfully written...Perfectly executed. This is a band at their pinnacle, this is extreme metal at its finest.

Felt a tad weaker and more generic than its predecessor. Drums are a big part of that - I
don't know if it is from the way they're composed, the way they're mixed, or both, but
where drums on EiF felt technical, subtle, and a fantastic framework for the rest of the
instruments, here they just feel like a wall of blast beats after the other, which again
feels more generic and is just less interesting to me. The snare in particular is quite
high, which may affect this phenomenon, which the conclusion of 3 is symptomatic of. Now
this is is still quality, brutal death metal, but except in a few places (the start of 3 is
the first time the album evokes EiF, and the midtrack of 6 is another holy fk moment), it
has nowhere near the wow factor EiF had. Might be a slightly excessively low rating, but
this felt like a 3.7

If DsO played death. Brutal, technical and even quite atmospheric, this is a behemoth that did not wait any second to slap your bitchy face.

I like this album a lot, it blends brutality and atmosphere like no other, however it's hard to listen to the whole thing in one time. Some songs are too lengthy for the sake their own sake but my biggest problem is with the drums. Jamie Saint Merat is a great drummer but he is just all over the place on this record. The drums hardly follow the other instruments or set the pace; they are changing pace/tempos all the time as if they were soloing constantly and this to the detriment of the atmosphere the band is trying to build. I'm all for variety when it comes to music composition but too much variety is definitely an issue in this case. A well deserved 4 but with the feeling that it could had been higher.

Although not on the same level as EIF, The Destroyers Of All is still a solid release.

Sags in the middle. The songs should be shorter. Nothing about the music actually needs changing. There's already great riffs, great percussion, passable vocals, and great atmosphere, but it's too much of the same thing.
