Damn, I really like this disc! It is seriously aggressive at times but then there are progressive moments as well, which won't be for everyone but if you love complex and well-crafted death metal then I am sure this will appeal to you. The drummer on this album is a beast and the way that the drums are recorded sounds excellent \m/\m/

This is really a very cool death metal album in my opinion and one that is worthy of many listens.

Damn Finnish death metal has been hitting hard again the past few years and these guys are a prime example. This disc dropped on 1/1/23 and I have to thank ElF for the intel on these guys, after hearing this I went and searched out their 2020 album which is quite good and probably underappreciated by most.

High Command is a band from Worcester, Massachusetts, which is a place I have been to several times in my past work career and these guys were still unknown to me. They play an atypical, yet very entertaining brand of American thrash metal that I thoroughly enjoy. I want to give a big thanks to our friend El Faffo for the heads-up on this band. It is too bad ElF disappeared so suddenly around here as I really appreciated his opinions and commentary.
