42. Vitriol – “To Bathe From The Throat Of Cowardice”

A grand claim but this lot are the future of Death Metal. Well at least the ultra-heavy non-melodic kind. This is Death Metal restored to its nasty primal former glories. All the flourishes and enhancements and technological implants have been removed. This is pure, nasty, brutal pounding Death Metal. And it’s excellent. Minimalistic in places, it has stripped away anything unnecessary or that dilutes the surging power. Aggression captured in a bottle.
