7/10 CRUSHED FUCKING SKULLS
This is high-quality death metal from Greece. Sonically they're a mixture of Entombed, Incantation, Asphyx, and especially Hail of Bullets. The remind me a lot of Hail of Bullets. They also share the military obsessions of Bolt Thrower, if not the melodicism. The vocals are the of the currently fashionable cavernous style with tons of echo. They're not afraid of blastbeats, peppering them in liberally throughout the record, and it goes a long way toward keeping the intensity high. This band is as much about a dark atmosphere as they are about brutality, not shying away from slower riffs to create different textures. This is better than average death metal and well worth a look even from grizzled veterans of the death metal scene.
