Free Music Review: Crushing Blackened Death Metal
Hit: 5 Stars
I stumbled upon this band by accident, and I am glad I did! Angel Corpse's "Of Lucifer & Lightning" is a masterful, albeit expected, piece of Blackened Death that any fan of either genre should enjoy.
The vocals are the gurgly, Black Metal type throughout the album. They fit in perfectly with the music. Powerful, consistent, and blasphemous sum them up fairly well. Even if you are not a fan of Black Metal's vocal style (I myself am a Death-Head, so I tend to enjoy the bass-laden roar of that genre more) you will certainly appreciate how perfectly this vocal style fits in with the music. This album wouldn't be the same without them.
The music itself is wonderful. This album is everything that is to be expected by a Death/Black Metal fan. Fast, brutal, heavy, evil, foreboding. Each of these are embodied fully throughout the CD. From the first note of the opener "Credo Decimatus" through the last second of "Lustmord" Angel Corpse RAGE through their tracks. That isn't to say songs are repetitive or predictable, each one has its own time signatures, riffs, and personality. The drumming is very fast throughout with very few breaks but constantly shifts its focus from blasts to gallops to triplets, etc, making for a rock-solid foundation on which the rest of the music is placed. The guitar work is awesome, with fast, technical riffs, blistering solos (which remind me of Morbid Angel's earlier works) that are short, but so technical that they feel quite long. Bass is barely audible but is still "felt" due to the Black Metal tuning (low-fi and raw sounding, but with color and depth. A great achievement).
All-in-all, this is a magnificent album. If you fancy yourself a fan of extreme Metal, pick this up. The faint-hearted need not apply.
