Angelic Dread

Killer death metal though the songs are short in duration. I didn't mind that, they reined with fury! Catchy riffs and tolerable vocals, there's no going wrong with this band! The vocals go well with the music! Best Nunslaughter I've heard from them. Excruciatingly immense death metal galore! Check out one of their lengthier songs called "Looking Into The Abyss." I like how the riffs are constructed. There are all different types of tempos going on be it the guitars, drums and screaming vocals. I enjoyed this whole 68 minutes of a release! I feel like the music itself was strong enough to earn it a "A-" rating. What takes over to me are the guitars. There's a quite of a technicality to them and originality that goes along with it!

The music is thrash/death metal more thrash in the guitars and a tinge of death metal with the vocals. But I know they're considered to be solely a death metal band. The vocals reflect Jeff Walker via Carcass. Same screaming sound if you didn't notice but it seems to be true to that! Hearing other albums from this band I admired it's just this one seemed to be the strongest out of at least 3 of them I've heard! They really put together some irreplaceable songs even if they're only a couple of minutes in length. The guitars are blistering and technical. The chords and the tremolo picking are top notch! That's what sucked me into this release were the guitars. Not much in the way of leads, mostly rhythms.

Riffs sound crunchy and catchy. There isn't a Nunslaughter album I've heard that tops this one. And it's good they're re-establishing a great fan base. They need it and their music is totally unique.

The production quality on here is superb! I enjoyed how they weaved everything into place in terms of instruments/voice. The aggression is totally there and wouldn't want to change anything on this release. They diversify, they're not aggression totally, but the guitars are HEAVY! I think that they down-tune the guitars to reach that thickness sound. What a great band, they're wholly underrated! I ordered their CD from Hells Headbangers because I thought it one album that I couldn't pass up! The music took over and I loved the vocal department. This band is way unique and uncompromising! Be sure to take a listen to the song I mentioned and see if it's up to your death metal pallet!
