This is a review of a split ep between New Zealand's Heresiarch and Canada's Antediluvian called "Defleshing The Serpent Infinity" which will be released in July by Iron Bonehead Productions and we will start off the review with Heresiarch who return with their mixture of war, black and death metal.
Their side of the split starts out with a very fast, raw and brutal war metal direction which also uses a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Vocals bring in a mixture of bestial growls and black metal screams along with the guitar solos and leads also being done in a very chaotic style.
The songs also bring in some of the 90's Australian style but with a more modern day brutality. Throughout their side of the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with the music also adding in a small amount of melody, synths can also be heard on the closing track. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover death and war themes.
in my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Heresiarch and if you are a fan of war, black and death metal, you should check out their side of the split. RECOMMENDED TRACK "Excarnation".
Next up is Antediluvian a band that plays dissonant mixture of war, black and death metal.
Their side of the split starts out with a very fast, raw and brutal war metal sound which also uses a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Melodies can also be heard in some of the guitar riffing while the vocals also bring in a mixture of bestial growls and black metal screams.
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are also done in a very chaotic style while the riffing also adds in some dissonant and avant garde structures which makes the old school war metal style sound more modern, ritualistic spoken word parts can also be heard briefly along with the songs also adding in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts and synths can also be heard on the closing track. The production sounds very dark and raw while the lyrics cover Chaos, Destruction, Occultism, Prehistory and Metaphysics.
In my opinion Antediluvian are a very great sounding avant garde and dissonant mixture of war, black and death metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACK "Slipstream of Levi".
In conclusion I feel this is a very great sounding split and I would recommend it to all fans of war and black/death metal. 8 out of 10.
