There are no signs of the death metal genre waning as another decent debut full-length album gets coughed up, this time in the form of Re-Buried, a Seattle, Washington-based combo that formed in 2018. I love the cover artwork of this one and thankfully the music contained is as equally riveting, especially if you like grinding, gnawing death metal.<\/p>\n

There isn\u2019t anything remotely bright about this lumbering opus, where you get the usual blubbery mid-paced segments of morbidity which get washed away by occasional tirades of chunky, dense speed. It\u2019s a bit like hosing down your patio after you\u2019ve just bludgeoned someone to death with a hammer; those stains need removing.<\/p>\n

Even so, as evidenced on tracks such as \u2018Planetary Obliteration\u2019, there is also that destructive mix of pace and mid-tempo gnashing, all the while being dragged through the chambers of gore by those chesty vocal barks.<\/p>\n

The album also boasts some atmospheric melodious sparks too; again I refer to \u2018Planetary Obliteration\u2019 as well as the mournful clamber of \u2018Infinite Suffering\u2019 where the band really comes into its own for dragging, smothering grinding.<\/p>\n

Re-Buried boasts a dense sound for sure, but hidden within their depths are streaks of subtlety and colour although the heaviness remains. \u2018Sepulchral Stench\u2019 and \u2018Smoldering Remnants\u2019 act as vast walls awash with congealed blood with both being catchy in their perverse manner. Meanwhile, the title track expresses speed and aggression, but for me it is the monstrous \u2018Throne Of Asmodeus\u2019 which provides the heftiest riffs of all.<\/p>\n

This is solid, often ghastly death metal that fits in nicely with the current brigade of flesh-chomping ghouls, and while it\u2019s not an easy field to navigate, Repulsive Nature<\/em> does enough to ensure its status as an album that may very likely feature highly in the end of year polls.<\/p>\n
