| The ultimate emergence
of heavy metal in all of its fearsome and desolate nihilistic power and
violence, death metal is the extremism of the direction metal took to escape
its roots in "normal" music, and freed metal composers to use more dynamic
and chaotic abstract structures in songwriting. Death metal is life, for
those who have let go of living.
Death metal is about
the absolute and its breakdown, a retrospective of contrasting forces which
drive our world. With the power of hardcore-influenced madman power riffing
and the gutteral roar of brutal and devastating vocals, death metal moves
its world with a bulldozer shockwave of sound: a gigantic deconstruction
that assembles its own aftermath of totality. |
