Organs, scary keyboards, and fist-banging rhythms offset the hyperspeed paces – but in the end, it seems so random. And “inconsistent” production doesn’t help.
Mostly breakneck-speed black metal, with dabbles of supporting keyboards. When the tempo “slows,” the riffing approaches memorable, almost singable, beauty.
Within minutes, you catch the Kreator inspiration (the cover of “Flag of Hate” is a good tip off), but even “Storming with Menace” was more silly than dumb.
Snakespit vocals, ripping guitarwork, wild fretboard flailings (meaning they play solos), and ump-pa, ump-pa drumming the likes of which we’ve come to expect.
