I’ve been coming across several short releases that pack a hell of a punch lately and Laudem Antichristus is part of that crowd. Fast, grinding blackened death metal is the name of the game here and, except for about one minute at the beginning of each track, it’s essentially pedal-to-the-metal throughout. The drumming and the vocals are decidedly death metal whereas the guitars and the atmosphere bring in the blackened vibe. The vocals are kind of a bark-ish growl and I’m not crazy about the style here, but that’s just nitpicking. Heavy and punishing stuff right here.
