Upon Desecrated Altars, by LEFT CROSS

Upon Desecrated Altars

by LEFT CROSS

supported by

Sugammadex Some serious-sounding death metal for adults. The guitar tuning alone leaves me disembœweled, jejunum-&-all spewed 'cross the dirt. It's some real wicked shit, my brœthers.

Dan Hébert Pummeling death metal with a war metal sensibility. Check it out. Favorite track: Unbinding The Covenant.

Bart A noisy roar of an album, that occasionally shifts into d-beat death metal. It breaks up the mood and almost lets you catch your breath. Almost. Favorite track: The Blood Of Mars.

about

Emerging in 2015 with a uniquely hostile brand of war charged death metal, Virginia’s LEFT CROSS quickly established themselves as a merciless live act seemingly incapable of restraint. Forging and refining their sound over several releases, LEFT CROSS continued their relentless assault while losing none of their murderous intent. Now veterans of countless campaigns, LEFT CROSS returns to unleash their sophomore effort, “Upon Desecrated Altars”, under the banner of Profound Lore Records.

A cacophonous offering, “Upon Desecrated Altars” joins grotesque melodies with an inhuman vehemence that forgoes any ambiguity. Little to no respite can be found as each track builds upon the devastation of the last, ultimately rising to a crescendo of conquest. With a salvo of blistering solos, thunderous percussion and infernal commands, LEFT CROSS declares victory and marches onward.

Man, this is some flat out foul death doom metal. Crushingly heavy and intimidating. The whole album oozes a thick and murky atmosphere that will leave you feeling hypoxic and catatonic. Do what you can to brace yourself against this torrent of sludge and slime. 8/10 RJ

The Enduring Spirit
by Tomb Mold

supported by 166 fans who also own “Upon Desecrated Altars”

Derrick manages to bring a bit of his Dream Unending urges into Tomb Mold, and with great effect. Every track on this is a winner, but "Will of Whispers" feels the most forward-thinking, mixing melody with heaviness and a near-fusion level of musicianship. My favourite modern death metal album. jcridford

the second album from spectral voice is majorly a great success to there abilities. it opens up new boundaries that they did not cross in there eroded corridors of unbeing in my opinion. the way that this album roles is complete labyrinthine morphology. jensen5g

The whole album rips...but my GOD the solo on this song...The pinch harmonic at the end...This is the kind of song that makes you get really into it - making faces and head banging with intensity - even in socially awkward and inappropriate settings. It just takes over. Archmage Orladin
