Yet again, listeners are treated to one of the finest Swedish death metal bands of today as Crowpath bludgeon listeners with an unstoppable wall of mathematically supercharged death and grind. As if that's not enough to satisfy your addiction for extremity, Crowpath also manage to find room in their skilled songcrafting for a touch of doom, which breaks the more insane musical passages up nicely, offering a degree of dynamic to the album that many bands of this style fail to ever achieve.
Evading the sophomore jinx seems all too easy for these guys, as they expand upon the direction of their 'Red On Chrome' debut, offering a new level of technical ability, while staying true to sounds that are nothing save exercises in the exploration of the horizons of the brutality of death and grindcore.
With a guitar sound that emulates dropping Piggy and Mitch Harris in a blender on high speed, Crowpath is all over the meter, issuing rapid-fire, rolling blasts, urgent grunts, anguished, piercing squeals and a stringed attack that is formidable, to say the least. Tracks like 'The Will To Burn' and 'Pigeonsmasher' showcase the group's high level of proficiency on their respective instruments, all the while making for a chaotic, blistering sonic bruise for thine ears to behold.
