Quick and easy review this one, because spoiler alert – it undeniably can. The album is certain to push for the top spot on any metal album of the year lists and is quality from front to back.
Is there anything truly groundbreaking on this album? No. But that’s what makes it so special. At a time when every heavy act is trying to follow in the footsteps of certain contemporaries, Malevolence have shown that there is also strength in sticking to what you’re already good at.
There is a more classic metal influence on show compared to the increasingly generic modern metal sound. The hardcore sway over that sound increases the adrenaline and ensures that these songs are going to go off when played live.
There’s not much else to say really… just go and listen to this for yourself and metallers rejoice because your new obsession can absolutely live up to the hype!
