Daaaamn, this sounds heavy and massive! Gregor Mackintoshs Vallenfyre is back with a second album and the standard is set with the opening track “Scabs”. The Old School Death Metal has hints with both the Swedish scene (the d-beat) as the US one (Autopsy) and not surprisingly you hear a lot of old Paradise Lost stuff as well with Mackintoshs signature guitar playing. On “Odious Bliss” Celtic Frost is clearly present. Some say its a tad boring or just a simple follow-up of “A Fragile King”, but to me its one hell of an aggressive album filled with fuzzy, sorrowful and massive Old School Death Metal. “These wounds will never heal!” (Ricardo)
