Dysmorphic Demiurge is becoming quite prolific with 3 full-length albums released in as many years and coming off of a strong 2021 release here they're back already with another highly effective slab of brutal death metal. The songs here are a little more refined and don't rely on being stoopid brutal to be heavy as Hell.

Highly skilled and varied brutality from this long-running band. It is hard to believe that this disc is 20 years old already and some of the band members sat down last year to talk about the longevity of this classic album. This is my CD rip by the way.

Witness: -[*]-
The songs on Watch You Burn are more thrash than death and would have fit in nicely back in the '90s but the album still makes for a mostly enjoyable listen now.

I have been on a bit of a tech trip this weekend and our buddy DDM dropped a couple of good recommendations on us here with disc and countrymates Fuck You And Die. This is a pretty mature effort for a young band with their first LP.

After a 9 year absence, DeathFuckingCunt is back with a new album and backed by a new label in Transcending Obscurity. They maintained the same lineup after all of those years and the material they are offering here sounds very good to my ears. Listen and judge for yourself.

Wow! These guys are quite prolific, after releasing their first album Horror Chronicles in February of 2021 they are already back with their 2nd full-length offering in just over a year. I can hear that their sound has morphed a bit in that short time but I am really liking this disc and want to say that I am impressed with the skill and quality of this band's material \m/\m/

I came across this disc at Frostdomain a few weeks back and picked it up because I was intrigued by the lo-fi album artwork and after listening to this a couple of times I want to promote these guys as well. They have a strong grasp on old-school-sounding death metal.

There is a lot of HM-2 fuzziness incorporated into this French band's sound. It makes for a nice bit of old-school worship.

Witness: -[*]-
I really liked the previous release from Thempest as it was more straightforward and even slightly technical death metal. Now, after a 7-year absence, they have returned with their new album and a new more "atmospheric" sound and I am not sure that it is to their advantage. I preferred the more traditional approach of the previous album.

I wanna give props to my old friend OT for turning me onto this disc several years ago, a big thanks, man!

Witness: -[*]-
This is currently my new favorite technical death metal album for 2022. I'm not sure that it will end the year in that spot but for now, I am thoroughly enjoying this, their 6th full-length album in 10 years. I started listening to them back in 2012 with their debut Liberation Through Hearing. While I haven't posted any of their material in between then and now I feel that they have remained fairly consistent over the years and have created their best work since their debut with The Masquerade.
