"Neuraxis are a veteran death metal band who have put together a fourth album of impressive heaviness and quality. This is also intermingled with melodic sections, while still retaining the brutal atmosphere that hangs over the album.Whilst musically Neuraxis wear their death metal credentials on their collective sleeve, lyrically 'Trilateral Progression' is a strange beast. Not many death metal albums begin with the line "Wisdom is the apex of intellectual performances" and end with "temporal cycles, hidden melody of the stellar regulations "

" The music on this disc, although a few tracks stand out, congruent with the musical themes of the album. All of the songs tie together, in other words. Tight, fast riffing, blasting drums, melodic passages, and vocals which can only be described as a malevolent swarming force combine to make one of the most interesting and unique albums in recent metal. The production is clean, with all instruments (even the bass is somewhat audible as it lends heaviness to the riffing) being presented clearly. The drums are in the forefront, but do not drown anything out. Think Testament’s “The Gathering” and not Cryptopsy’s “Once Was Not” and you’ll have a good idea of the preeminence of the drum sound in the mix. The vocals seem to come at you from all directions at once, and feature guest spots by Jason Netherton of Misery Index, Pat Loisel of Augury, ex-vocalist Maynard Moore, Alex Erian of Despised Icon, and Guillaume Audet of Nefastus Dies "

" Neuraxis are tight, technically adept, and fast yet are able to write infectiously groovy songs which inspire headbanging !.......Cant wait for the new album.........

The album art, done by Mike Riddick, is absolutely stunning!


An Atmospheric Holocaust!..........Get It!
