Wow, this was quite the blast of musical
tenure when I put this chunk of metal in my CD player! For Death
du Jour is a death metal band from Finland with some of the most
technical extremities I have heard since yesterday (...when I heard
Anaal Nathrakhs' Codex Necro). The only real difference between these
guys and any other band is well - no one really cares to play this
chaotic! Unfortunately for those others and fortunate for Death du
Jour, they present a fresh and fairly original sound that will soil
any death metalheads' shorts. The vocals are super-hateful, the guitar
and bass riffs are completely off time and technical, and the drums
are over-the-top! All this crazy-ass melee that makes up "Fragments
of Perdition," fits the mold they were trying to cook up with
a spice unknown. It's like Gorguts' "Obscura," but more
like early-Deicide on crack! This 4-piece is fast, technical, aggressive,
chaotic, period. Most notable hymn for me: "Harlot Deliverance".
Consisting of 8 tracks and around 35 minutes of pure agony to the
ear lobes. You will not leave your listening station without some
sort of relief! Better check your shorts just in case, though.... Rating: 93 Reviewed By: Thomas Mitchell |
