Listening to these eight tracks requires a willingness to enter a harsh world, but the payoff is worth it.

…an entrancing, yet murky doomed out death metal sound, as if some horror of hell has managed to crawl forth from the sewers and is now hunting for flesh.
When combining these components, you are left with a very unsettling, nauseating template to lay some vocals on.
Perhaps we could call this atmospheric OSDM, but the atmosphere is one of blackest horror.
With veins of droning terror running throughout, The Wretched Sermon is a riff-filled manifestation of brutality.
Death metal with a grindy sound, but not the grind speed. Nasty riffs that I’m pretty sure could actually cut you if you listen too closely. A nice mid-paced groove that gets the ole noggin’ banging. What’s not to like?
As black metal and death metal, generally speaking, rise in popularity, and show no signs of slowing down any time soon, we can still find black/death metal hidden away underneath all the grime of the underground.
Jump in. Enjoy the chaotic ride. Catch your breath. Repeat.
Punishing down-tuned death metal riffs, belligerent drumming, and David Ingram’s trademark bellow.
