Review

Nominon have been rather quietly going about the business of becoming one of the most reliable bands in the new Swedish scene. This is their fifth album in an under-the-radar career that goes back well over a decade, and while it is solid, I think it does not quite measure up to their last one. On this album, Nominon sound a good bit more like The Crown than they used to, and while The Crown are awesome, I just find this disc lacks the snarling, spitting edge of Monumentomb. This is a stalwart disc of Swedish thrashy Death Metal, with the expected fingerprints of Dismember, Carnage, and Deathrace King all over it, but the guitar sound is a bit too restrained, and the songs all sound a bit too much like each other. Solid but uninspired.
