A lot of death metal is either ultra-polished technical wankery or derivative old-school worship. And then there's Horrendous, which is a bit of both but without the downsides.

With that cover the album could have been called Crowded Teeth.

That's good to hear coming from you. Ecdysis remains one of favorite death metal albums of the 21st century, but I thought Anareta didnt quite live up to it.

<3 Soothsayer. It's been a long time since I heard such a refreshing death metal track. Looking forward to the album. Never heard of the band .

What an amazing album. Good Death Metal with touches of Tech/Prog, but just the right amount.

One of the best in the catalog, even surpassing the new album whatsoever.
