When I first heard Reign of
Terror’s "Threnody Of The Impaled", this album blew me away, and I can only
say that this, their latest CD, reaffirms ROT’s commitment to the dark and
heavy sounding death metal they have been writing and recording for the past
four years. Ten of the eleven tracks deliver everything die-hard death metal
fans thrive on: blasphemous, fast, heavy, brutal Death with lots of doom parts
and occult overtones and lyrics. Richard Osmond and Gilbert Sanchez on guitars
lay the groundwork for fast and intricate riffing, which CJ Holguin on bass
and drummer Marc “The Engine” Arredondo balance with darker, slower moods. CJ
not only provides each song with double-bass doom parts, but also tantalizes
listeners with deathgrunt vocals that bring the composition into harmony.
Arredondo is master of his domain in that he is extremely fast and
coordinated, as his precise timing is in harmony with the rapid guitar riffing
that poses quite a challenge to keep up with. For fans who are into brutal
death "Threnody Of The Impaled" is a must. I highly recommend this album to
any true metalhead.
