Since their heavy leaning Swedish Death Metal debut, ‘The Splendid Iniquity’ in 2018, to their more mature Blackened Death evolution on 2020’s ‘The Divine Apostate’, Angerot have been a beacon of darkness for the US extreme metal scene.
Their 3rd opus, ‘The Profound Recreant’, ascends even deeper into the abyss and sees the band continue to evolve (or devolve depending how you look at it). The band’s consummate professionalism and meticulous attention to every detail is on full display here, which has certainly set them apart from nearly any other act on the continent.
More European in presentation and overall sound, Angerot’s midwest roots provide more heft in the backbone of their riffs than their Eastern counterparts, and while the band continue to flirt with more Black Metal aesthetics, the foundation is certainly grounded in Death Metal.
