6/10 CRUSHED FUCKING SKULLS
From Colombia, this reeks of the old South American sound, and while most would classify this as black metal, I hear plenty of old death metal in their sound, so it gets a review here. This is total 1980s black/death worship - think Sarcofago, Sepultura, Holocausto, Sextrash, Bathory, Hellhammer, and Sodom all chucked into a blender and rendered into a damn fine soup of blasphemy-riddled metal. The riffs are mostly mid-paced affairs played dark and hard, with emphasis on an evil atmosphere. The Spanish lyrics make the record sound all the more evil for some reason, much like how Morbosidad's atmosphere is helped by the same thing. I do hear some Blasphemy influence in the vocals with some of the barks the vocalist performs, which is great. At times, the songs can be overly repetitive, but the riffs are good enough that it doesn't bore me - they just ride the riff until a change makes sense. This is something you should definitely hear if you're a fan of that old sound like I am, and I recommend it for black metal and death metal afficionados alike. Plus there's a badass goat on the cover!
