#FOR FANS OF: Brutal Death

BRUTAL! I like the music on this release. It's not their best release, but I do think it's really solid. Love the guitar riffs the most. And the sound quality is good, too. The vocals aren't as burly as the most, they mainly shift between heavy or heavier. I think the highlight to me is definitely the music. ABSOLUTELY. The fluctuation between throat and deep throat vocals keeps the music at the point to where it follows therein. I thought that the switch keeps it from going monotonous. It's too bad this album isn't longer, but yet again I have to hear their new release! I'll be hearing it soon, though!

This release didn't get very good scores I thought that it was quite solid! The guitars and vocals are sick. They really make the release sound dynamic. I like the riffs the most out of this album the most. They're shockingly good! I heard their previous recording 'Butcher the Weak' which I also thought highly of. I think that this is a talented band. They make great death metal and it's chokingly chaotic! I think that they need to continue making music and I'm hopeful that they will. I don't really have much bad to say about the album, I just have very positive things to utter. Great album, but short!

The production quality is a little sketchy but the music makes up for that lacking thereof. And the burly vocals take state and rip! I'd have to say that they are a band that's true to their roots. I don't necessarily want to talk about the lyrical concepts but the music and vocals are solid. So are the drums. I like how the tempos vary on here. They definitely made some great choices as to what to include here as far as the music is concerned. I think that at this pace they have along life in the metal arena. And discovering this band they made a fan out of me. I can't wait to heart the follow-up to this here.

I believe you can download this album on Spotify or YouTube since it's been out for a while. But yeah, I went ahead and bought their CD. It's about 9 years ago that this was released but that's alright. I'm happy as to what I've heard from this release. I don't have anything really negative to say except that the production could've been a little bit better more flowing in terms of the sound quality. But that's therein the mixing and as far as that goes. Definitely look into this release because it's one brutal album that's highly underrated! I'll keep this playing a while long because it never gets old! Check it out! (Death8699)

#PER CHI AMA: Brutal/Slam Death

This album is my favorite out of all I've heard from Devourment! The music is what steals the listener. And the vocals are so darn brutal, about the same as ever. The riff-writing is fantastic with licks palm muted as ever before! The music isn't too fast though they change it up somewhat! The tremolo picking with the riffs are substantial. Tempos are varying widely with the vocals not drowning out the guitars. I definitely thought that this is their most original sounding album to-date! These guys don't mess around and it's like this the whole way through the entire album: BRUTAL AS F***.

I decided to buy a physical copy of the CD so that I could fully analyze the music and showing support to the band. The whole album is totally HEAVY. They don't let-up and the hatred is definitely there. This band has a long life ahead of them playing underground metal! I think for this album there's nothing that I'd change because the compositions are phenomenal. The music stole me away and the guitars being my favorite. The vocal output is definitely not tough getting used to! There were some blast beats on here (slam!) and the whole of the album featured moderate to fast riffs.

I thought that the production quality was top notch and the music was a product of good sound as well as vigor. The sound was a steal and the music was aggressive as well as brutal! I liked this from start to finish! These guys know how to construct good brutal death metal. Again, I think this is their strongest release to date! The music is the best depiction of what an album needs to show forth and has to show forth. An album that will go down in the archives as the best Devourment has come up with musically. Make no mistake about it, these guys turned up the creative juices on here!

It's a couple of years old now, let's hope that they have another one lined up somewhat soon! Like I said, I bought the CD and I was more than pleased with it! These guys know what they're doing regarding how to construct the music and arrangements. It's not just brutal in your face, it's brutal with riffs and blow the listener away! I showed support for this band/album, why don't you just take the time to listen to this one especially if you're a death metal fan. It won't disappoint! (Death8699)
