Impii Hora is a 39-minute love letter to Swedeath’s golden days. Asinhell clearly know the style intimately, and across these 10 tracks lay waste with their song-focused approach to death metal carnage. Continue reading “Asinhell – Impii Hora (Review)”

Spectral Intercession features 31 minutes of old-school death metal, delivered primarily in the Swedish style, (although not exclusively). Yep, grab your chainsaw, and get ready for carnage.

Ritual of Ash is a 38-minute monster of a death metal album. Ashen spend their time on this record carving their way through the killing arenas of the style to appear triumphant and covered in blood by the end of it.
