From the depths of Trondheim, Norway, Chton rises from their long awaited slumber with their latest release, The Devil Builds. The name Chton stems from the word "chtonian", pertaining to the deities, spirits, and other beings dwelling under the earth. This fits perfectly into the sound the band has created with their death metal roots, as well as the influences of black and even some doom metal. The Devil Builds proves to be the perfect addition to their discography and I think it is their best work to date. If you're looking for some of that in-your-face death metal, this band may be for you. Taking their musical cues from a broad range of influences like Suffocation, Morbid Angel and Immolation to Nile and Behemoth, Chton serves up a veritable cacophony of dark, brutal death metal with just a hint of Scandinavian blackness seeping through its underbelly.
