The brainchild of Tommi Grönqvist, whose bands Unholy Redeemer and Slugathor are also worth checking out, is one where “stoic” is a word that fits really well.
The Doom-infused Death Metal, surrounded by a brooding dark atmosphere, is present from the first to the very last second on their eighth album called ‘Deserted Realms’. As is always the case with Desecresy, we can safely say.
The heavy, lumbering sound of bands like Rippikoulu, Krypts, and Incantation mixed with the rolling style of Bolt Thrower is the main foundation you can expect from Desecresy, but those who are already familiar with the threatening darkness of previous Desecresy records and even the Slugathor days know what Grönqvist can do.
Anyone paying attention already knows that nothing innovative or unusual should be expected when listening to ‘Deserted Realms’, and that brings us right back to “stoic”.
