Angry Metal Guy<p><a href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/harvested-dysthymia-review/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Harvested – Dysthymia Review</a></p><p><i>By Tyme</i></p><p>Despite a waning stigma, mental illness remains an oft-closeted topic, as those suffering from it struggle not only to cope but to discuss their struggles with others. Here to shed some of their death metal light on the matter are Canadian upstarts <strong>Harvested</strong>, with their independent debut full-length <em>Dysthymia</em>, which, according to Johns Hopkins Medicine, is defined as a long-lasting form of mild depression. Touching on topics ranging from submitting to one’s long-bottled-up ‘shadow self’ (“Repressed Neurosis”) to the gluttonous way humans abuse the earth (“Unanchored”), something <strong>Harvested</strong> consider a <em>form</em> of mental illness, they’ve dialed back the lyrically gorier aspects of their eponymous 2022 EP to intensify the focus on their chosen theme. As evidenced by the beautifully rendered CJ Bertram cover art, which main guitarist Mitchi Dimitriadis says depicts ‘an individual in great mental turmoil’ and represents ‘the abstract visualization of the chaos that is the human brain,’ it’s clear that <strong>Harvested</strong> are committed to the subject. The only question left to answer is whether it’s worth reaping what <strong>Harvested</strong>’s <em>Dysthymia</em> hopes to have sown.</p><p>Nostalgically anchored in 1990s and early 2000s death metal, <strong>Harvested</strong> also incorporate modern elements of slam and tech-death into the mix to achieve <em>Dysthymia</em>’s goal. This is one brutal fucking record, and from the get, you realize Harvested aren’t messing about, as <em>Dysthymia</em> mashes the potatoes and pulls the meaty steaks off the grill, a muscle-bound manifestation of their <strong>Cannibal Corpse</strong>, <strong>Suffocation</strong>, and<strong> Deicide</strong> (“Harvested,” “The Infestation”) influences. Dimitriadis’ and Vitto Oh’s guitar harmonics are pinched harder than <span><strong>Grier</strong></span>‘s butt cheeks at an enema convention, ensorcelled by viscerally blistering riffs, technically proficient leads, and tornadic, swirling solos. Jacob Collins’ drums<a href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/harvested-dysthymia-review/#fn-220096-1" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">1</a> crack skulls and pummel sternums with whirling fills and destructive double-kicks while Eric Forget’s bass lines remember everything necessary to keep things rumbling along. Adam Semler’s vocals, primarily an homage to George Fisher’s chesty aggression and Glenn Benton’s demonic discernibility, also share elements with <strong>Cattle Decapitation</strong>’s Travis Ryan at his most high-pitched and raspy. For such a young band, <strong>Harvested</strong> have planted a flag on the death metal scene, and <em>Dysthymia</em> is the wind through which that flag furls, filled with exuberant, energy-filled performances and solid songwriting.</p><p></p><p>With highlights aplenty, <em>Dysthymia</em> demands attention by way of its genuine songcraft and near flawless execution. I found myself stank-faced and sweaty through many a listen, whether basking in the glow of galloping riffs and percussive bass on “Unending Madness” or taking in the detailed technicality of the <strong>Soreption</strong> and <strong>The Zenith Passage</strong> influenced “Designed Dilemma,” a song that chugs so hard through its last ninety seconds I nearly gave myself whiplash. My favorite track, “Gathered and Deluded,” is a <strong>Cattle Decapitation</strong>-tinted slammer with pinched harmonic progressions that have been living rent-free in my head for weeks as Forget’s bass marches in flurrying lockstep with Collins’ robotically precise drums, and Selmer channels his best inner Travis Ryan. <strong>Harvested</strong> is one tight-knit outfit, belying their relatively brief existence and sounding like a band that’s been together much longer.</p><p></p><p>I’d argue the efforts of <strong>Harvested</strong>’s “sixth member”<strong> </strong>deserve as much credit for the success <em>Dysthymia</em> should garner as the band themselves, and that is the excellent work Joe Lyko performed from the booth at Darkmoon Productions. Lyko’s mix and master slathers Dimitriadis’ and Oh’s guitar work in a tone that, for me, defies obvious comparison, as bright and bouncy as it is deadly and devastating. Like a calculated throat punch, it was the first thing that hit me when album opener, “Harvested,” launched, holding my rapt attention all the way through to “The Infestation,” an excellent close to <em>Dysthymia</em>’s very manageable thirty-two-minute runtime. Each instrument exists within its own space, breathing freely and intertwining with high-definition clarity, thereby topping this auditorily successful sundae with a big, fat, juicy cherry.</p><p>Lyrically poignant, brutally heavy, and bursting with engagingly twisted, hook-filled instrumentation, <em>Dysthymia</em> is a helluva debut, and one <strong>Harvested</strong> should be proud of. As poetically as I have waxed, I still believe there’s room for <strong>Harvested</strong> to grow. God help those who might lay their ears on a sophomore effort from this line-up, should they remain intact. Rest assured, I’ll definitely be watching and waiting. For now, however, I wholeheartedly recommend you spend some long-lasting, quality time with <em>Dysthymia</em>.</p> <p><strong>Rating</strong>: 3.5 / 5.0<br><strong>DR</strong>: 7 | <strong>Format Reviewed</strong>: 320kbps mp3<br><strong>Label</strong>: Self-Released<br><strong>Websites</strong>: <a href="https://harvested.bandcamp.com/album/dysthymia" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Bandcamp</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/harvested666/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Facebook</a> | <a href="https://www.instagram.com/harvestedband/?hl=en" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Instagram </a><br><strong>Releases Worldwide</strong>: August 1st, 2025</p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/2025/" target="_blank">#2025</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/35/" target="_blank">#35</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/aug25/" target="_blank">#Aug25</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/canadian-metal/" target="_blank">#CanadianMetal</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/cannibal-corpse/" target="_blank">#CannibalCorpse</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/cattle-decapitation/" target="_blank">#CattleDecapitation</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/death-metal/" target="_blank">#DeathMetal</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/deicide/" target="_blank">#Deicide</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/dysthymia/" target="_blank">#Dysthymia</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/harvested/" target="_blank">#Harvested</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/independent/" target="_blank">#Independent</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/review/" target="_blank">#Review</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/soreption/" target="_blank">#Soreption</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/suffocation/" target="_blank">#Suffocation</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/technical-death-metal/" target="_blank">#TechnicalDeathMetal</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/the-zenith-process/" target="_blank">#TheZenithProcess</a></p>
Angry Metal Guy<p><a href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/volur-cares-breathless-spirit-review/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Völur &amp; Cares – Breathless Spirit Review</a></p><p><i>By Twelve</i></p><p>“Avant-garde doom metal from Canada. Do I really need to say more to pique your interest?” So said I a little under five years ago, closing out my Things You Might Have Missed feature for <strong>Völur</strong>’s <a href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/volur-death-cult-things-you-might-have-missed-2020/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"><em>Death Cult</em></a>. The Toronto-based project launched itself to the top of my end-of-year list in 2020, owing to their expert fusion of an impressive blend of sounds and genres primarily rooted in doom metal. Wielding the violin like a sledgehammer, <em>Death Cult</em> featured intelligent, clever compositions that really impressed me in 2020. Now, at last, they’re back for their fourth full-length, <em>Breathless Spirit</em>, with one key change: a collaboration with <strong>Cares</strong>—UK/Canadian producer James Beardmore—whose influence aims to transcend an already-impressive trio to Valhallan heights. However do they fare?</p><p>But first, a correction: in reviewing <em>Death Cult</em>, I noted that “the guitars do not dominate, nor do they crush the listener; instead, they unsettle, distort, and act as anchor for the vocals and electric violins that make up the true meat of the music.” <strong>Völur </strong>has no guitarist—only Lucas Gadke (<strong>Blood</strong> <strong>Ceremony</strong>), who plays bass (in addition to vocals and piano). The electric violins are indeed the “true meat of the music;” <strong>Völur</strong> create their uniquely haunting sound through intense distortion on Laura Bates’s violin and viola,<a href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/volur-cares-breathless-spirit-review/#fn-219608-1" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">1</a> giving them a surprisingly heavy metal basis to work with—certainly I’d never have thought there’s no guitar in the blackened doom mania that is “Windbourne Sorcery II,” and I’m still not 100% sure I believe it. Previously, I compared the group to a gloomy “<strong>Apocapyse Orchestra</strong> meets <strong>King Goat</strong>” project, but, in hindsight, <strong>Apocalyptica</strong> might have been a better base point to use.</p><p>Realistically, though, none of that matters because <strong>Völur</strong> is unique in too many ways to build adequate comparisons, and <strong>Cares</strong> has only strengthened that position. Where <em>Death Cult</em> emphasized the heavier, doom metal basis of <strong>Völur</strong>’s material, <em>Breathless Spirit </em>leans more classical, a change that highlights the incredible range of the music, passing also through doom metal, black metal, folk, jazz, and drone along the way—and all of it done with “just” a violinist, bassist, and drummer (Justin Ruppel). What’s extra interesting (on an already very interesting record) is that <strong>Cares</strong> contributes piano, synthesizers, theremin, and textures. His production adds layer upon layer of grimy, modern darkness that contributes heavily to the metal feel of <em>Breathless Spirit</em>. It is, put simply, extremely experimental. It also works magnificently.</p><p></p><p>From the classically-inspired<a href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/volur-cares-breathless-spirit-review/#fn-219608-2" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">2</a> “Hearth,” <em>Breathless Spirit</em>’s instrumental intro whose motifs just keep reappearing, to the towering doom metal conclusion of “Death in Solitude,” <strong>Völur</strong> are as engaging as they are unpredictable. I mentioned that “Windbourne Sorcery II” has the album’s blackened highlight, with Bates’s utterly unhinged shrieks atop a steady alarm of urgency from her violin. That same song has an almost funeral buildup, a chilling passage I compare favorably with <strong>Bell Witch</strong>’s <em>Mirror Reaper</em><a href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/volur-cares-breathless-spirit-review/#fn-219608-3" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">3</a>. The title track is the highlight for me; Gadke’s roars are front and center, and all of his vocals have depth and command to them, recalling <strong>Barren Earth</strong>’s <em>On Lonely Towers</em>.<a href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/volur-cares-breathless-spirit-review/#fn-219608-4" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">4</a> Guest vocals from Amy Bowles (ex-<strong>Hollow Earth</strong>) are a fantastic counter to his baritone cleans, and the brief improvizations a third of the way in is chaotic and delightful. You can dance to the haunting middle section, but it ends on a sense of heavy, epic urgency. Whatever style they try, <strong>Völur &amp; Cares</strong> can’t help but create something beautiful. Much credit also belongs to Ruppel, whose measured drumming keeps <em>Breathless Spirit</em> grounded in a steady, doom-laden theme that serves it well.</p><p>I’ve run out of words, but there’s so much more to say. <em>Breathless Spirit</em> is a <em>hard</em> album to describe with any level of brevity. It explores worlds I’ve only hinted at here, and is much stronger than the sum of its parts. It’s not perfect—”On Drangey” is perhaps a touch too long for my preferences—but it hardly has to be. <em>Breathless Spirit</em> should enshrine <strong>Völur </strong>and <strong>Cares</strong> as experts in the experimental. Equal parts beautiful, haunting, and dark, <em>Breathless Spirit</em> defies my vocabulary—you simply must listen for yourself.</p><p></p> <p><strong>Rating:</strong> 4.0/5.0<br><strong>DR:</strong> 6 | <strong>Format Reviewed:</strong> 192 kbps mp3<br><strong>Label:</strong> <a href="https://blackthroneproductions.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Blackthrone Productions</a><br><strong>Websites:</strong> <a href="http://volur.bandcamp.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">volur.bandcamp.com</a> | <a href="http://facebook.com/VolurDoom" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">facebook.com/VolurDoom</a><br><strong>Releases Worldwide:</strong> August 8th, 2025</p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/2025/" target="_blank">#2025</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/40/" target="_blank">#40</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/apocalypse-orchestra/" target="_blank">#ApocalypseOrchestra</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/apocalyptica/" target="_blank">#Apocalyptica</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/aug25/" target="_blank">#Aug25</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/barren-earth/" target="_blank">#BarrenEarth</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/bell-witch/" target="_blank">#BellWitch</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/blackthrone-productions/" target="_blank">#BlackthroneProductions</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/blood-ceremony/" target="_blank">#BloodCeremony</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/breathless-spirit/" target="_blank">#BreathlessSpirit</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/canadian-metal/" target="_blank">#CanadianMetal</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/cares/" target="_blank">#Cares</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/doom-metal/" target="_blank">#DoomMetal</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/drone/" target="_blank">#Drone</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/folk-metal/" target="_blank">#FolkMetal</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/hollow-earth/" target="_blank">#HollowEarth</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/jazz/" target="_blank">#Jazz</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/king-goat/" target="_blank">#KingGoat</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/review/" target="_blank">#Review</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/reviews/" target="_blank">#Reviews</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/volur/" target="_blank">#Volur</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/volur-cares/" target="_blank">#VölurCares</a></p>
Angry Metal Guy<p><a href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/crimson-shadows-whispers-of-war-review/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Crimson Shadows – Whispers of War Review</a></p><p><i>By Eldritch Elitist</i></p><p>When a beloved record receives a successor following a decade or more of germination, what do the fans want to hear? What do they dare <i>hope</i> to hear? Comparable cases have shown that the best-case scenario is typically a great record that echoes the artist’s prior success in varying degrees. Notable <a href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/kull-exile-review/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">examples</a> include albums that adhere to the artist’s established formula, yet whose energy has been somewhat eroded by the passage of time. <a href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/cellador-off-grid-review/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Others</a> are major departures that recall the past in genre only. <em>Whispers of War</em>, the third album from Canadian melodic power death metallers <strong>Crimson Shadows</strong>, reveals a third path: A record which adheres so strictly to its predecessor that it sounds like it dropped mere months afterward. With <em>Whispers of War</em> in my hands, I am confident that it is <i>exactly</i> what I’ve wanted all along.</p><p>For the uninitiated, <strong>Crimson Shadows</strong>’ sound is what would have happened if <strong>DragonForce</strong> had been mainstays in the late 90’s / early 00’s Finnish melodic death metal scene, but with a North American metalcore-adjacent sense of chunk and polish tailor-made for the 2009 Rockstar Energy Mayhem Festival. Their blend of sugary lead guitars and rhythmic violence is peak Dumb Guy Metal, and as The Dumbest Guy, I’m thrilled that this new album recaptures the formula perfectly. To compare <strong>Crimson Shadows</strong>’ album-to-album trajectory to that of <strong>DragonForce</strong>, <em>Whispers of War</em> is to 2014’s <i>Kings Among Men</i> as the first half of <i>Sonic Firestorm</i> is to the second half of <i>Sonic Firestorm</i>. Had this record been disc two of a <i>Kings Among Men</i> double album, not a single eye would have been batted. Everything is intact: Big riffs, bigger melodies, and ceaseless double bass drives staunchly locked to 200bpm. My biggest worry was that this unshaken formula would feel obligatory, but <em>Whispers of War</em>’s sheer caffeinated vigor is authentic and as undeniably addictive as ever.</p><p><em>Whispers of War</em>’s quality is neck-and-neck with <i>Kings Among Men</i>, even surpassing it in certain areas in its battle to justify its own existence. Where <strong>Crimson Shadows</strong>’ preceding album was at its best in scattered instances of monumental grandeur, these new compositions are more compelling in their moment-to-moment execution. No song on <em>Whispers of War</em> feels as singularly massive as, say, the chorus of “<a href="https://youtu.be/tbHfiEa5w8Y?si=orUv5Zwqa_RuQaf0" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Dawn of Vengeance</a>,” yet its riffs feel more gleefully barbaric across the board, stampeding rowdily through verses in tracks like “Guardians” and “Rise of the Fallen Soul.” Elsewhere, the band weaves <b><strong>Wintersun</strong></b>ny blastbeats into the proceedings (“<em>Whispers of War</em>,” “Battle Hard 2: Battle Harder”) in jolts of welcome variety. The more <em>Whispers of War</em> sits with me, the more I believe it superior to its younger sibling, even if I love all of <strong>Crimson Shadows</strong>’ children equally.<a href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/crimson-shadows-whispers-of-war-review/#fn-219841-1" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">1</a></p><p></p><p>What gives <em>Whispers of War</em> the edge as my new favorite <strong>Crimson Shadows</strong> record are its improved performances across the board. The band formed in 2006, yet in a mythically rare occurrence, has maintained their starting lineup, bassist Alex Snape being the sole exception. Guitarist / clean vocalist Greg Rounding has a notably greater control and expanded range during the record’s excellent choruses, and his and Ryan Hofing’s dueling guitar solos are elevated in both complexity and memorability. Harsh vocalist Jimi Maltais, meanwhile, remains a motherfucking powerhouse and one of the most underrated growlers in extreme metal. The only instrumental disappointment comes in the mixing of drummer Cory Hofing’s kitwork. His cymbal patterns are ear-ticklingly catchy, yet his kit’s tone and presence have been flattened in generic modern metal fashion in a downgrade from its thunderous nature on <i>Kings Among Men</i>.</p><p>I love this band. Maybe it’s because I had my old Xbox 360 loaded up with ripped <strong>DragonForce</strong> and <strong>Children of Bodom</strong> CDs, but to me, their music sounds like a Halo 3-branded can of Mountain Dew Game Fuel in the best possible way. There is a youthful earnestness to <strong>Crimson Shadows</strong>’ music that has become increasingly difficult to come by, and the fact that they have picked up <i>exactly</i> where they left off a decade ago with a record this good speaks volumes of their enthusiasm in being true to themselves and the music they love. I’d be thrilled to hear <strong>Crimson Shadows</strong> expand their sound in new directions following <em>Whispers of War</em>, but for the time being, this is an exceedingly rare instance where more of the same is the ideal outcome. There may be better records released in 2025, but I sincerely doubt I will spin any of them harder, louder, or with more jubilance than this one.</p><p></p> <p><strong>Rating:</strong> Great<br><strong>DR:</strong> 5 | <strong>Format Reviewed:</strong> PCM<br><strong>Label:</strong> Self-Release<br><strong>Websites:</strong> <a href="http://crimsonshadows.bandcamp.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">crimsonshadows.bandcamp.com</a> | <a href="http://facebook.com/CrimsonShadowsBand" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">facebook.com/CrimsonShadowsBand</a><br><strong>Releases Worldwide:</strong> July 25th, 2025</p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/2025/" target="_blank">#2025</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/40/" target="_blank">#40</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/canadian-metal/" target="_blank">#CanadianMetal</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/crimson-shadows/" target="_blank">#CrimsonShadows</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/dragonforce/" target="_blank">#DragonForce</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/jul25/" target="_blank">#Jul25</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/kings-among-men/" target="_blank">#KingsAmongMen</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/melodic-death-metal/" target="_blank">#MelodicDeathMetal</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/power-metal/" target="_blank">#PowerMetal</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/review/" target="_blank">#Review</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/reviews/" target="_blank">#Reviews</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/self-releases/" target="_blank">#SelfReleases</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/whispers-of-war/" target="_blank">#WhispersOfWar</a></p>

Angry Metal Guy<p><a href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/disembodiment-spiral-crypts-review/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Disembodiment – Spiral Crypts Review</a></p><p><i>By Steel Druhm</i></p><p>It’s been a minute since I got my iron claws stuck into some rancid, cesspool-grade death metal, and I was badly jonesing for some. Along comes Quebec-based filth-death crew <strong>Disembodiment</strong> with their <em>Spiral Crypts</em> debut, and they put <span><strong>Steel</strong></span> right back in the rot pit! Featuring a former member of <strong>Serpent Corpse</strong>, these canucks bring the seeping offal to the public toilets with nary an ounce of excrement left unsmeared. <em>Spiral Crypts</em> is disgusting caverncore awfulness for the caveman death setters, and you’ll feel the toxic grime and gunk accumulating in your pores before you get through the first song. It’s every bit the unnatural mating of <strong>Incantation</strong> with <strong>Autopsy</strong> and early <strong>Tomb Mold</strong>, with bits of <strong>Cannibal Corpse</strong> and <strong>Suffocation</strong> stuck in the soft serve like corn. But is an unapologetic scuzz-bucket puke product enough to sell a cynical deathhead on what <strong>Disembodiment</strong> is hawking? Let’s dive in!</p><p>The album opens appropriately with the sounds of something wet leaking somewhere sticky as flies buzz and a woman whimpers and screams in abject horror. Soon the band shows us why, as they kick the basement door in and proceed to put the “fist” in fistula on “Morbid Infestation.” It’s chuggy OSDM with enough scab and pus on the sound profile to put off all but the twisted. The tempos skew wildly from doomy, oppressive plods and blasty, thrash explosions that reek of the late 80s/early 90s death landmarks, and at times, little strains of vintage <strong>Death</strong> surface from the primordial ooze. It’s not reinventing the wheel, but it’s gumming up the rotors with lots of raw sewage. The riffs are spicy and interesting, and the vocals approximate an overworked garbage disposal trying to process an entire Christmas ham. It’s a shitshow, but one you can’t look away from. The band demonstrates a bit more range on “Stygian Overture,” playing with mood and tempo for a more expansive sound, making sure the rubber boot never comes too far off the trachea as they slow things down and showcase impressive riff-sense. What’s most entertaining is the way the band tries to be more “proggy” while the vocalist seems to devolve into something even less human.</p><p>My favorite moment comes on “Larval,” where all the maggots come home to roost. This one kicks off with an insanely heavy, utterly brainless chug stomp that will flatten your ass. Those chug grooves are heavy enough to decimate a concrete bunker, and you will feel yourself regress to your most apeish nature as you blast this one. While some tracks hit harder than others, none disappoint or leave you feeling clean and safe spacey. Every tune is infused with swampy but sharp riffing and enough tempo shifts to shake your IQ downward several points. At a very reasonable 30 minutes, <strong>Disembodiment</strong> know that too much of a rancid thing may lead to cesspool fatigue, so things go down the drain before you retch up any organs you might really need. The production is a master class in muck, crust, sleaze and revoltingness. The guitar tons is nasty as fook, and the bass is booming and oppressive. My only complaint is that there are skips in the master where it sounds like someone cut a few seconds of the song out entirely. It only happens a few times, but it’s weird and disruptive.</p><p></p><p>Mathieu Breton is credited as the lead voKillizer, and he does a convincing job of sounding like he’s hurling up the biggest, wettest loogey-woogey in the history of mankind. He’s perfectly vile and repellant, and I love everything he does. Guitarist Chris unleashes a vast collection of scathing, scouring riffs and makes <strong>Spiral Crypts</strong> an exceptionally riffy death metal platter. His style is heavily grounded in the <strong>Incantation</strong> / <strong>Autopsy</strong> school but he wanders into the realms of <strong>Death</strong> and <strong>Morbid Angel</strong> as well. He has a great handle on atmosphere and mood, and he can craft a creepy doom riff that makes you feel legitimately uneasy. This is a crew that knows how to snake a shitter.</p><p><em>Spiral Crypts</em> is one of the those fucking disgusting OSDM albums you hear and love on the very first salvo, and it offers everything you could want from this unclean, unsanitary style. <strong>Disembodimen</strong>t are now on my radar and I’m eager to hear what they dump on the floor next.

Angry Metal Guy<p><a href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/decryptal-simulacre-review/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Décryptal – Simulacre Review</a></p><p><i>By El Cuervo</i></p><p>Québec has long been a region synonymous with uncompromising death metal, with stacks of excellent bands bleeding from its fertile cemetery grounds. Débutants <strong>Décryptal</strong> emerge from said land, unveiling their first full-length entitled <em>Simulacre</em> after just one prior demo. This release arrives with the promise of a sound steeped in French Canada’s murky traditions, plundering tombs and raiding caverns alike. But in a scene so replete with bands treading the same territory, is <em>Simulacre</em> able to carve out its own grave?</p><p><em>Simulacre</em> fits neatly – if powerfully – into the cavernous style of death metal, exemplifying the new school of the old school. In this way, <strong>Décryptal</strong> strongly recall <strong>Phrenelith</strong>. Everything about the album is bruising. From the burly guitar grooves to the battering drums, to the guttural growls, to the meaty production, it feels like proper death metal. It prioritizes fat rhythms above shredding melodies, with the chunky guitars, bass, and drums offering a thunderous accompaniment to everything that happens. And even if the riffs and performances already conveyed the sense of a pungent vaulted cave system, the production wraps all this into something pitch-black and haunting. I love how the rounded drums, thumping bass, and jagged guitar edges create a void of hope.</p><p>Besides the album’s overall aesthetic and the atmospheric production, it’s hard to argue that <em>Simulacre</em>’s strongest quality isn’t its guitar leads. The release is stuffed full of undeniable riffs. My highlight is the passage from 3:20 on “Horde d’Invertébrés” or “Dendrites.” I’m unclear which, because these two tracks are the same on my review copy, leaving me to assume that there’s also a corresponding track missing. In either case, the riff checks every box I want a death metal riff to check: groovy, meaty, driving, and headbangable. The guy who wrote it deserves to dine out on its quality for a substantial period. Likewise, the lead that commences at 1:10 on “Flétrissement” offers a compelling blend of bludgeoning brutality and scything sharpness. Though <strong>Décryptal</strong> like to smash more than they like to slice, they’re capable of swapping their hammers for knives when the situation demands it. And while things never descend into <strong>Incantation</strong> death/doom territory, the band also enjoys slowing the tempo into passages with thick, doomy leads (“Zisurru,” for example).</p><p></p><p>You may question where <em>Simulacre</em> falters. The songs are consistently good, but also feel like they are constituted from various great riffs haphazardly arranged. <strong>Décryptal</strong> don’t sound as if they were especially focused on meaningful, coherent song construction. You can hit play from anywhere throughout and immediately have fun, but you could also switch around many passages without feeling like much has changed. This undermines the album as a unique art form, intended as a deliberate arrangement of songs in a particular order. This is compounded by the songwriting, which is robust but predictable. There are no surprises here as everything is exactly what you expect it to be. Variety, or moments of true inspiration, are thin on the ground. Part of this sense that there’s little to truly stand out is that the shredding guitar solos are relatively buried compared with the punchy rhythms. I understand that the band is plumping for a thick, murky tone, but louder solos would help to break up the songs if they were mixed higher.</p><p>Dissecting <em>Simulacre</em> exposes a <strong>Décryptal</strong> that’s already brushing up against the bands that influence them; though it may not be as innovative or exciting as those bands once were, it’s a remarkably good execution of cavern-core death metal. While stylistically brutal, there’s no shortage of technicality; it’s just that the band rightly prioritizes power above showmanship. <em>Simulacre</em> isn’t perfect, but could be the start of a Very Good Thing.</p><p></p> <p><strong>Rating</strong>: 3.0/5.0<br><strong>DR</strong>: 5 | <strong>Format Reviewed</strong>: 320 kbps MP3<br><strong>Label</strong>: <a href="https://www.mesacounojo.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Me Saco Un Ojo Records</a><br><strong>Websites</strong>: <a href="https://decryptal.bandcamp.com/album/simulacre" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">decryptal.bandcamp.com</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/Decryptal" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">facebook.com/decryptal</a><br><strong>Releases Worldwide</strong>: July 11th, 2025</p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/2025/" target="_blank">#2025</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/30/" target="_blank">#30</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/canadian-metal/" target="_blank">#CanadianMetal</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/death-metal/" target="_blank">#DeathMetal</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/decryptal/" target="_blank">#Décryptal</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/incantation/" target="_blank">#Incantation</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/jul25/" target="_blank">#Jul25</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/phrenelith/" target="_blank">#Phrenelith</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/review/" target="_blank">#Review</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/reviews/" target="_blank">#Reviews</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://www.angrymetalguy.com/tag/simulacre/" target="_blank">#Simulacre</a></p>
