It has been a while since the band has given us some new ║ ║ material to blast out but their latest album, Young Gods, is ║ ║ something incredible. The three year wait was definitely worth it as ║ ║ the end product is refined, tailored and extremely powerful. ║ ║ ║ ║ Young Gods fires off on all cylinders as the band wields a plethora ║ ║ of genres and influences. From the low tuned chugs of djent and ║ ║ speedy licks of death metal to the pulsating beats of nu metal and ║ ║ the hard hitting breakdowns of hardcore. It can all be found in ║ ║ Young Gods. The sound is reminiscent of No Hope No Mortality and In ║ ║ Shadows but on a whole other level when it comes to the diversity in ║ ║ songs. One minute Bury Your Corpses is bouncing along on a ║ ║ structure of chugged riffs, palm muted grooves and slow neck ║ ║ wrenching beats. Then the next Their Souls Are Mine just drops some ║ ║ nu metal into the mix for the vocals to surf on top of. It gives ║ ║ parts the album a more classic deathcore vibe whilst others inject a ║ ║ little variety into the music keeping things fresh. ║ ║ ║ ║ I couldnÆt help but notice, Kneel bringing the vibes of the original ║ ║ DOOM game. A real hit of nostalgia with the intro dripping in the ║ ║ iconic sounds of At DoomÆs Gate from the gameÆs opening level. Not ║ ║ to mention the blazing breakdown that ends the song. IÆm glad I ║ ║ wasnÆt sat near anything that was wieldable otherwise I may have put ║ ║ it straight through the wall. Not just going for the slow, down ║ ║ tempo breakdowns that you may find in similar bands. Martyr Defiled ║ ║ have blended these slow shattering breakdowns with beatdown ║ ║ influenced, karate kicking and even more rhythmical two stepping ║ ║ stuff. A moshers delight. Young Gods gets a big old tick on the ║ ║ breakdown front. Just be careful you donÆt smash anything, it is ║ ║ tempting trust me. ║ ║ ║ ║ The vocals have improved so much from the already impressive lungs ║ ║ of Matthew Jones. A massive prowess of deeper more guttural lows cut ║ ║ against shrieking highs and the odd hardcore shout out are on show. ║ ║ Every style is just punched in at the right moment. Pestillent ║ ║ Bastille is bordering on black metal in the vocal department as ║ ║ things get mixed up to fit the fast and thrashing instruments . The ║ ║ brilliant guest spots of Konan Hall from MALEVIONCE and Pierre Pelbu ║ ║ of Knuckledust are two highlights of the album. The songs lay nearly ║ ║ slap bang in the middle of the album and bring yet more power and ║ ║ heaviness. ║ ║ ║ ║ Finally I have to mention the dark atmosphere. It creeps in the ║ ║ background taking a back seat throughout the entire album. It lurks ║ ║ in the licks and bridges. Like a good horror movie the atmosphere is ║ ║ never thrust so far in your face that it isnÆt special. Instead the ║ ║ it is hidden under the layers of head wrecking music. Martyr Defiled ║ ║ may not have give it much limelight but youÆll never let it go ║ ║ unnoticed. The droning siren of Through Famine, War &Scorn plays ║ ║ only a minor part in the end breakdown but my god if it doesnÆt add ║ ║ an offset, eeriness to the song. ║ ║ ║ ║ Young Gods is heavier, darker and more of everything I love from ║ ║ bands of this calibre. The album is guaranteed to keep old fans ║ ║ moshing and to drag an army of new ones kicking and screaming into ║ ║ the Martyr Defiled camp. DonÆt fight it people, it is inevitable. ║ ║ You will fall in love with the 42 minutes of heavy mastery that is ║ ║ Young Gods. ║ ║ ║ ╠═══════════════════════════════[TRACK.LiST]══════════════════════════════╣ ║ ║ ║ 01 Sins of the Father 3:44 ║ ║ 02 Bury Your Corpses Deep 3:23 ║ ║ 03 At the Throne of Salem 3:38 ║ ║ 04 Their Souls Are Mine 3:18 ║ ║ 05 Kneel 3:24 ║ ║ 06 Carpe Noctem 4:27 ║ ║ 07 Through Famine, War & Scorn 3:16 ║ ║ 08 Sow, and You Shall Reap 3:28 ║ ║ 09 What Lies Beneath 3:15 ║ ║ 10 Reborn 3:44 ║ ║ 11 Pestillent Bastille 3:36 ║ ║ 12 Sins of the Mother 3:41 ║ ║ ║ ║ TOTAL SiZE.: 12 Files/86.43MB/42:54 min ║ ║ ║ ╚═════════════════════════════════[⌐2017]═════════════════════════════════╝
