Today’s review is of American Death Doom Metal band Bestialord’s new album.
This release doesn’t really fit in your common Death Doom denomination, but it’s one of the most accurate labels to put on the album. These songs are more upbeat than the usual ones of the genre, and some Thrash elements are also present. It may be much better compared to Celtic Frost, current Darkthrone or Dungeönhammer than to anything else.
With a fairly raw recording, a fascination for the old-school and heavy pounding riffs under a rotten vocal performance, this full-length may surely appeal to fans of early Extreme Metal. If you want something obscure, straightforward and evil, then look no further. This is a fine addition to the list of Celtic Frost worshipping albums that nonetheless add their personal elements and identity. My personal highlights are “Upon The Altar” and “Herald Of Dawn”.
I recommend this album to fans of Death Doom Metal and early Extreme Metal in general. My rating is of 9/10.
