It’s official… you can now dismiss all your possibilities for “album of the year”. It has been found and everything else will be a mere runner-up. I was anxiously waiting for the release of the new Undergang album, the same way a kid is waiting for Santa Claus to come down the chimney at Christmas Eve. Except Santa is imaginary (sorry, kids) and Undergang is not and is not fooling around!
Keeping their trademarked ultralow sound, Undergang found a way to incorporate new elements into the mix by the way of guitar melodies and even a piano intro! Combined with all the elements Undergang usually brings to the table, this is, by far, their best release and clearly puts them light-years away from the rest of the competition on this filthy and rotten Death metal subgenre. One final note for the 10th and final track which is an excellent tribute to the Finnish band Disgrace with a cover of ‘The Chasm’.
