This disc was released in January and was highly anticipated by a few of us here in The Chamber but I am not sure that the sophomore effort lived up to the expectations set by their debut. It is not a bad album at all and I really like the 2nd half of it but Reign of Rotten Flesh grabbed the throat a little tighter.

I liked this band's 2013 release and had this rip in my November 2016 folder but must admit that I haven't given this disc much attention over the years.

5. Anaphylaxis
6. Stifling Excruciation
7. Scarabs Beneath the Flesh
8. Revealed by Moonlight
9. Return to Planet Earth

Witness: -[*]-
It is my impression that Begravement has been toiling in a bit of obscurity for the past 4 years even though they have a couple of singles, 2 demos, and 1 EP to their credit but hopefully, this new album will get them some deserved recognition because I personally think this is a very good release and my new favorite album of the moment.

Witness: -[*]-
It is getting to the point where there are almost as many 1-man project bands as there are traditional bands with multiple members contributing talent. And, Obscure Form is another example of how this can be done very well and where all instruments are actually mastered and none are programmed.

Witness: -[*]-
Karpathian Relict is a Ukrainian band that at some point moved to Poland, which turned out to be a good move on their part unless, of course, the entire planet ends up in nuclear winter as a result of the war pigs measuring their dick sizes. Regardless, these guys create some entertaining death metal and while it is labeled as technical death metal it is not overly technical and remains compelling for my tastes.

7. Transmissão Semântica

Witness: -[*]-
So, I was saying a year or two ago that Portugal was becoming one of my new favorite countries for death metal and I guess this band is further proof of the talent on display there because Besta are more grindy than other bands I like but I am still digging this disc.

8. Seeds of Disease  
9. Altar of the Fallen

Witness: -[*]-
Here is a album that I missed out on back in '21 and I feel that others may have as well because they didn't even get an honorable mention. These guys are from London and have been around for about 12 years now, and they are tagged as thrash metal but they definitely have enough death metal brutality in their toolkit to appeal to a wider audience. The video below is from their new EP due in October on Redefining Darkness and I see that they are even slated to be on the Knotfest tour this year. I think this is a very cool album from a band possessing high-quality skills and I am excited for their new release.

I want to thank CarlG for directing my attention toward this band from the Philippines a couple of weeks back. These guys have created an entertaining slab of traditional-sounding death metal on Streams of Rot.

Witness: -[*]-
I came across this disc over at Frostdomain back in June and I listened to it a few times and thought to myself that this band's style is very familiar and I really like it. Later, I realized that this is Lacerated And Carbonized with a more efficient moniker, so it is no wonder that I like this album because their older material is excellent.

Here is a rip that I had in my December 2010 folder and I don't think that I ever gave this album the attention that it deserved. Then, several months back CarlG asked if anyone had ever listened to this one, so I dug it out and realized that it is a pretty good offering unfortunately, the band seems to have split up in 2012. The drummer is currently in a band called Phidion who had a very good offering in 2017 but nothing since.
