It is a shame some bands do not stick around for longer and give us more opportunities to hear what they can produce. Sweden's Repugnant only produced one full length record in Epitome Of Darkness, but my God did they make the most of it. One of the most incendiary slabs of death metal to have been produced since the turn of the millennium, you owe it to yourself to give it a listen.

You have to hear this. I recently discovered this gem of an album, dripping in old-school death/thrash metal with an equally old-school production. This is what metal should be like.

I wouldn't blame U for thinking this was recorded way back in 1985. It's typical old-school 80's Death/Thrash Metal played at a thunderous speed and aggression coupled with a hyper raw production reminiscent of such classic acts like Possessed, Morbid Angel & Entombed. Enjoy !!!

Yeah, what a strong recommendation, this seems just my cup of tea. Dirty, raw old-school and viciously catchy, judging from the couple of songs I've heard so far.

I would have liked to hear a little more the drum in the production for my taste, i think it sounds a little low.

Love the fact that the vocalist here is Papa Emeritus I & II of Ghost.

I just added that to band trivia yesterday upon realizing no one else had done it yet.

No one knew it before and you're the only one discovered it ? Sounds like a Metal 007...
How do you justify your updates ?
