Grave Desecrator are a band from Brazil that has been featured before in this zine and plays a mixture of war, black and death metal and this is a review of their 2023 album "Immundissime Spiritus" which will be released in May by Caverna de Sangue Productions.
Dark soundscapes start off the album before going into a heavier direction while the riffs also add in a great amount of evil sounding melodies. When the music speeds up a lot of tremolo picking, blast beats and war metal elements can be heard which also gives the album more of a raw feeling.
Vocals are mostly high pitched black metal screams while death metal growls can also be heard at times along with the songs also adding in a great amount of old school influences. Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts along with the solos and leads also being done in a very dark yet melodic style.
All of the musical instruments on the album also have a very powerful sound to them along with the spoken word parts also giving the recording more of a ritualistic feeling when they are utilized, synths and clean playing can also be heard briefly and they also bring in a G.G Allin cover. The production sounds very raw and old school while the lyrics cover Occultism, Necromancy, Blasphemy, Death and Darkness themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding album from Grave Desecrator and if you are a fan of war, black and death metal, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Necromanitical Hex" "Finis Hominis" "Occult Bewitchment" and "Rapists From The Cross". 8 out of 10.
