Piper Haqim I think I listened to this 13x today and it is a brutal beautiful slab of tech death mayhem that constantly pulls the brakes just long enough for you to catch your breath before beating the snot out of you. Great album! \m/ Favorite track: Finding Consistency in the Fourth Quadrant of Eternity.

SALT AOTY 2026 for me....so far.

Skronk Eximperitus has shifted the landscape of technical death metal from the riverbanks of Cairo to the back alleys of Constantinople. Most excellent. Favorite track: The Untimely Fruit of the Unsaid.

XUN Powerful and atmospheric record from one of the brightest Belarusian bands. It's perceiving much slower then predecessor, but has a lot of hooks and more memorable songs. Great record! Favorite track: Inqirad.

Warangelic Weird. Eccentric yet highly enjoyable and intricate technical death metal album. Just calm down with the naming sense, please. Favorite track: Utpāda.

This album has impact, thanks! Favorite track: Anhûtu.

David Fischer So, technical death metal often feels like quite the slog (or show-off), if the song writing skills / self-control of the band are not that high. This album is not a drag at all. Listening to this, even though it is top-notch-busy tech-death is way more calming than even trying to pronounce the band's name. Reminds me of Necrophagist quite a lot, which is one of the biggest achievements a tech-death-band can achieve in my book. Even the 5 minute ambient outro passes by in a few heartbeats. Favorite track: Rytuał Pryzyŭnoha Zaklionu Ŭsioabdymnaj Ęnierhii Ciemry, U Hipastyĺnaj Zalie Matęryjalizacyi Ŭwasablieńniaŭ Kokabaęła, Zaklikany Zubožyć Ahafałahičnyja Abliččy Idałaŭ Anhârąka, Zwajawaŭšych Wypramieńwańnie Pandęmaničnaha Pantęonu Kheri-Beq-F....

bcb723 So this album is completely crazy (in a great way). You have to stand in amazement at the entire package -- the technical perfection, the lyrics from "dead languages of the Ancient East", and whatever the hell is going on with the Egypt meets Erich von Däniken insanity of the cover art. It would almost be a ridiculous joke if the music wasn't so fucking great. Highly impressive and recommended. Favorite track: Da Pytańniaŭ Ab Suziraĺnym Paznańni Naradžęńnia Trahiedyi J Niaŭchiĺnaści Hibeli Isnaha Ŭ Wučeńni Anihiliacyi, Jak Pra Pieršaęliemienty Praŭdziwaj Pryrody Askietyčnych Praliehamienaŭ Mižhałaktyčnaha Smutku Smierciśćwiardžajučaj Mudraści Šapienhaŭęra....

As another user said: behind those gimmicks is actual great music. Do not dismiss this band as a mere joke. Favorite track: Apałohija Samaźniščęńnia Ŭ Daktrynie Wyzwalieńnia Philippa Mainländęra, Jak Dumka Jakaja Biaskonca Pahłybliajecca Ad Z'jawy Da Sutnaści, Jość Adzina Dakładnaje Mierkawańnie Ab Wyšęjšaj Marali Indywiduaĺnaj Woli Supraćstajačaj Nieświadomamu, A Tak Ža Sutnaść Baraćby Za Nieisnawańnie....

Bart One of my favorite grindcore bands in the last few years (both on albums and live). This new album ticks all the boxes. They still comfortably sit in the grindcore chaos while bringing in groove, death metal riffs and the occasional hardcore breakdowns. The frenetic energy of Gobi's guest vocals "Abolition" is another highlight. Top notch album, and I can't wait to see them again. Favorite track: Abolition.

Aram K. Spergus fuck yeah this rips Favorite track: Abolition.

StrengthWithin All grind no filler.

Bart Sometimes you really gotta see a band live for it to really sink in. I didn't "get" this band till I saw them live with Brujeria. Really great set of grinding/thrashing metal. Looking forward to seeing this band get bigger/better. Favorite track: Manipulate-Consume.

John Chaos Alexander A Beautiful constructed bludgeoning Barrage of grindcore madness! That takes no prisoners\M/ Favorite track: Refugio.

vincentfromaarsucks No/Màs fuckin kill this one. super good grind with elements of black metal and death metal thrown in. Favorite track: Police Brutality.
