Starting straight into the action with the instrumental “Lord Of Beasts”, you soon realise how, besides being a Technical Death Metal band they sound a lot like a classic Swedish band, especially in the way of singing and the drums. It may remind you of the supergroup Firespawn, with and added technicality of the likes of Atheist that doesn’t contaminate the essence of the music. The song that reminds more of Swedish Death Metal may be or “The Day You Die” or “The Last Prophet”.
Besides the elaborate guitars, the bass guitar is really notable, with some incredibly good solos that no common bassist may be able to perform, especially the one in “A Death Through The Mirror”.
This band is much better than your average Technical Death Metal band that only focuses their music on their talent, these actually remain faithful to the original violence of Death Metal and perfectly makes it fit within their songs.
I definitely recommend this album if you’re a fan of Technical Death Metal or of classic Swedish Death Metal. This band is very talented and deserves more attention, especially with their newly acquired strength with the new members.
