PROFANE ORDER - Tightened Noose of Sanctimony - CD
Includes as bonus, the first release of the band, "Marked by Malice"
"Tightened Noose… is a finely crafted implement of destruction, a withering blackened death metal blitzkrieg full of toxically corrosive grinding and swarming riffs, crater-creating bass munitions, a thundering, head-cracking drum attack, and an assortment of sparingly used but freakish and incinerating solos. Ghastly howls and roars accompany the electrifying instrumental torrents.
And to be clear, the music here isn’t some murky froth of shapeless chaos. As ruthlessly destructive as they are, the songs are also heavy-grooved and catchy as hell, and more dynamic than you might be expecting. For me the standout track is “Terror Worship”, in part because of the bewildering black magic that the band practice when they slow the pace. But you can’t go wrong with any of these six obsidian gems"
NO CLEAN SINGING
Marked by Malice, the Montreal four-piece’s debut, has more muscle and groove than anyone would rightfully expect from a black metal demo. But that’s exactly why you’re reading about it here and now: because Profane Order’s demo is simply exceptional.
