Polterchrist... Another anonymous and common death/black band from the US? Wrong! Unlike their fellow countrymen Council Of The Fallen that I angrily reviewed thirty minutes ago, Polterchrist has everything necessary to impose its mark in the metal world, especially a good dose of personality. It's quite obvious when you hear this 'Engulfed By The Swarm' that these guys are no newcomers: they have an amazing ability to vary their music, from extreme violence to technical violence (I know it doesn't make a big difference to most people but still...), from fast-paced music and blastbeats to extremely melodic passages. They have the grind/death 'The Sun Will Burn Black', and just after a melodic/acoustic/doomy intro a la Dark Tranquillity on 'Terminal' (undoubtedly THE 'highlight' of the album). Read more ›› |
