Today’s review is of Polish Technical Death Metal band Redemptor’s upcoming new album, out on December 3rd.
Proving once more the talent of the members that also play in other renowned Polish bands, the album offers powerful Technical Death Metal in the likes of Nile or current Pestilence, though their approach is usually more atmospheric, bringing to mind acts such as Ulcerate, though despite the same kind of darkness is weaved this full-length also has much more straightforward bits to compensate. With this in mind, the album is pretty innovative and displays a new direction for Death Metal that sounds fresh and is interesting to hear, although it strays from the classic approach.
If you want something modern yet dark, violent yet hypnotic and oppressive yet technical look no further. This full-length certainly proves that Technical Death Metal can be a neat subgenre in the rare occasions when it’s not all about proving the band’s brutality and virtuosity. My personal highlights are “Potion Of The Skies” and “Les Ruines De Pompei”.
I recommend this album to fans of Technical Death Metal, Progressive Death Metal and Atmospheric Death Metal. My rating is of 9/10.
