Upon the Altar – Descendants of Evil

This Polish horde’s second album is one where the atmosphere of death, emptiness, and decay reigns supreme, encased in a musical package of Death Metal with more than a hint of Black Metal influences.

With the heavy bass sound that persistently rumbles, somewhat in the vein of Mortician, the rest remains a fusion of Incantation (the ponderous, sluggish mid-tempo) and Blasphemy (up-tempo chaos) and comparable acts.

It’s a wall of pitch-black sound that besieges you… and you’re utterly cornered.
