Album Review
Ragnar of Ravensfjord
Reviewed 2006-08-02
Fast & “brooootal” & battering old-school Florida style death metal. Nothing that original but a lot of fun to listen to. For those who can’t enough of Malevolent Creation (who drummer Gus Rios wrote music for), old Morbid Angel & early Slayer solos.
(((1))) Charging & thick death metal with bit of crazy, spirialing chords.
((((2)))) FCC (“Fuck” sung once). Blasting fast & fast like Possessed or Death (the band) on fucking crack.
((3)) Just ok melodic yet brutal DM with too many pinch harmonics & Slayer-isms.
(((((4))))) Tons of blast beats and jud-jud that’ll knock you off yer ass.
((((5)))) Crazy mix of midpaced to bursts of speed. impressive with some cool hammer-on/pull off effects.
(((6))) Straight-ahead death thrashing with plenty of divebombing & pinch harmonics.
((7)) Slowish to mid to fast, nothing that hasn’t been done already on the album.
(((8)))) Vicious, pummeling & fast ‘ala Morbid Angel’s “Dawn Of The Angry”
(((9))) Varied tempos, some interesting riffing
(((10))) Straight-ahead riffy DM
((((11)))) Fast, bare-bones USDM. This is a cover of the old Death tune (from their 1st album “Scream Blood Gore”).
