When it comes to Swedish Death Metal, there are also a lot of bands that have been working hard for years but are never mentioned in conversation, reviews, or references. And despite Gluttony having been featured several times in this zine, I would confidently say that they are one of those kinds of bands. Nothing against the quality, but some bands are simply are just in that corner.
With ‘Drogulus’, Gluttony has certainly not managed to break out of that cornereven though there’s nothing wrong with the album. The roaring sound, the groovy riffs, tempo changes, and the other standard ingredients are fully present, but it lacks that final push towards online buzz. On the other hand, lovers of Swedish putridness who don’t let themselves be swayed by that flavour-of-the-day nonsense know how to find and appreciate it.
