Suffocating darkness from, of all places, Tennessee, not Sweden or Norway as the melodic Euro-style riffs might initially have you believe. Levitating blastbeats and ultra-fast double-bass drumming set the pace for rapid dual-guitar shredding and a hateful two-pronged vocal attack. Only the occasional clean-spoken, deep-voiced interludes (perhaps better suited for a monster-truck challenge ad) undermine the technically precise extremity at work here.
