Review: This ‘black
metal’ often sounds like death metal and then
suddenly spurts into open-chord black metal waters, with
lots of melody and vocals that sound a bit more like
screaming. The ‘clean’ vocals that pop up every
now and then are quite irritating. There are certainly
interesting passages in the music, but they often seem to
come from the emergence of death metal parts. Godless
could probably appeal to death and black metal fans
alike, since both styles are represented in a well-played
manner. The sound is quite thick - a must for all the
death metal in there - but still far from modern brutal
technical death metal, to name one of the popular
branches, despite structures that could have come from
that subgenre. One other annoying element: after Zyklon
no band should again use ‘ov’ as a permanent
replacement for ‘of’ as a gimmick. Luciferian
Insectus does that on every track, which is unnecessary
and immature.
