5/10 CRUSHED FUCKING SKULLS

Finally we have a band from Indonesia that isn't all-out brutality, but rather fairly strong, slower death metal firmly in the Incantation-influenced camp, with cavernous vocals and a doomy atmosphere. The drums are huge-sounding, and even the snare is deep. This band is all about atmosphere over intensity, and while there's nothing wrong with that, it's not my preference. It's a little slow for me most of the time, although there are a few up-tempo moments (thankfully). I'll put this in the "very ok" category of death metal that is true and that I respect but that will likely not end up in my collection.
