Genre - Technical Brutal Death Metal

" This is Spawn of Possession's debut album, and it's a very impressive piece of work. After a 48 second non-musical intro, these guys rip into 37 minutes of technical, brutal death metal. Their riffs have the tight, syncopative style of Deeds of Flesh with the sharp guitar tone and melodic flash of Necrophagist. Thus, they achieve a near-optimal mix of technicality, musicality, and brutality. They also use a variety of riff tempos and styles, without overusing any particular technique. The end result is that the music remains brutal yet doesn't get boring. The playing is excellent: they're exceptionally tight and handle even the most technical sections with ease. Still, the focus is on the songs, and none of the instruments steal the spotlight. There are a few guitar solos, but they're tasteful, appropriate and short "

" Lyric-wise, exorcism and spiritual/mental control seem to be the main subjects discussed, and considering how violent and haunting each of them can be, it fits the music perfectly. Nothing beats the singer talking about his soul being warped and mutated to the point where he cannot help but want to go on killing sprees, while the music describes every single moment of the man's change, corruption and deeds"

A Total keeper!..........Seek it out...and buy it!

Technically Brilliant!........Get It!
