The Boys from Brazil are back with another phenomenal record. This disc could be THE perfect death metal record. Although it is a brutal assault on your senses as all Krisiun records are this one is incredibly easy to take in without being overwhelmed by its fury. The production is incredible, I mean everything sounds clear but the heaviness is just awesome. This band is known for its pulverizing drums that lead the band through intense levels of speed. There’s plenty of blasting as usual but the double bass work is really killer and song writing is top notch. These songs for me were very memorable, not just a mish mosh of parts strewn together with blazing drums in an attempt to be brutal.
These guys define brutality in the most tastefully executed form. Their instruments have been captured on this recording in a way I had hoped they would since I first heard the band in the late 90s. Each members contribution has been layered into one powerful release that will keep their loyal fans happy and most likely win over even more people. I have had the pleasure of touring with these guys when Apocalyptic Revelations was released, it was their first US tour. They were modest about their skills as musicians and so appreciative of their fans, I knew they’d become huge, and here they are one of the most respected bands in death metal. They also happen to be one of the hardest working bands I have ever encountered. They tour constantly and are always working on new material. At every single show, they take a minute to tell their fans “We hate rock star bullshit attitudes, without you our fans.....we are nothing!�. These guys mean it. They never talk shit about other bands, are always happy to have a beer with fans and friends and do not hide out until they hit the stage like many bands do. This record is not just another death metal record. It is a record some may have hoped earlier heros like Deicide would have cranked out instead of some of the mediocre releases they crapped out for a while.
Moyses is one of the best guitarists I have ever seen and his use of effects is so tasteful you must label him guitar god, as if you don’t you are only admitting your jealousy. The effects compliment his playing....and do not bury mistakes [as if he ever makes any HA!] and the shredding is always impressive. Alexs vocals are always killer and this release is no exception. Lyrically, Alex spews forth the hatred in a harsh poetic way that just emanates the powerful message of disgust with humanity and religion. Max’s drum work has only improved as this band continues to release amazing record after record. This band is like a machine, they are so over the top and brutal you wonder if they can pull it off live. The truth is, they’re every bit as impressive live as they are on their recordings, matter of fact they’re one of the greatest live death metal bands you will ever see. Just do yourself a favor and buy this disc. If there is one death metal band on the face of this Earth that deserves to be worshiped it is
Krisiun.
