Atrocity
Okkult

Here on “Okkult” their tenth full length album, you’ll get to hear high tempo melodic death metal, done the swedish way, but with the enrichment of their sound with keys and choirs the result surely is something far more than just death metal.

I have to admit that lyrically I can’t find any interest at all. Musically, I’ll have to say that I was amazed by the “octopus” performance of drummer Joris, that surely gave the songs the energy they needed to sound straight forward and aggressive! At some point I hadn’t heard such music lately in terms of how rotten and modern these songs sound simultaneously. Fast and boilking riffs, Brutal growls and some industrial glence here and there complete the puzzle.

Summing it all up, I’m forced to say that, despite the energy and the obvious abilities accompanied with the excellent crystal clear mix, after the first half of songs playing on my stereo, I started getting a bit tired. When the record got to the end, I really needed to listen something less intriguing and confined. This weird personal identity and bizarre mixture of sound walls ATROCITY’s music is about, really confused me for the outcome.

All of you who want to dare, give yourselves the cahance and you might find something special.. The rest just stay away, because there’s nothing you’ll miss after all…
