2 demos, 1 split, 1 MLP; these are the releases Astriferous have already left an impression with. But now, this Costa Rican Death Metal juggernaut is back with their full-length studio debut. Decay, despair and bubbling rot come to the surface with the abhorrent opening piece. Setting a gargantuan monolith to crumble before us, the intensity is high even before we truly begin. Roaring vocals and meaty riffs stain the air as pummelling drums bludgeon the skull to smithereens. The raw and ineffably dark production is one that will immediately leave non-die-hards running with their tails between their legs. But those who can hack the savage attack of the senses will hear some truly phenomenal, atmospheric and yet unforgiving Death Metal that spews rot and hacks limbs while some cleverly placed riffs give a very uncomfortable ambience to the whole thing. The gripping and unique approach is delivered at high-tempos to insure maximum damage while some gloomier passages give a rich, textured and hauntingly ghastly dynamic to the record. Blending the cacophonous Finnish Death Metal titans of old with some South American Death-Thrashing violence, Astriferous conjure an atmosphere and sound entirely of their own while reading from the ancient tomes of morbidity.
