Here we have a disc of blackened death thrash of the non melody annihilation seeking variety from four Sinaporean lads clad in the official uniform (leathers and spikes, what else were you thinking?) who go by the monikers of Crucifier (incantation), Exorcist (goatsodomy), Imprecator (Bewitchment) and Tombcrusher (Desecration). No, don't read Floridan deathshite into this as it is more an homage to the old gods of black thrash. Nor is it retro bandwagon-jumping as this CD was released two years ago predating the current trend/cash grab.

Lots of serious velocity present. Thrashing and cymbal crashing over deep raw vocals and insane rhythms. "Abandonment Of Chastity" from their powerfully cool 7-inch "Upheaval Of Blasphemy" made it on to the disc while surprisingly it's better song "Heathendom Incarnate" didn't. Basically this is a gift (Abhorer called it quits last year for those that didn't know) to those who appreciate the times that once were. Forest hermits/nature lovers and sorrow weeping Goth boys stay away as this will most assuredly be too brutal for thee.
