Cruciamentum – Obsidian Refractions LP

Eight years following their debut album Charnel Passages—which was one of the most anticipated death metal debuts of current canon—US-via-UK abyssic death metal contingent Cruciamentum have finally emerged with their sophomore album Obsidian Refractions.

Now more commanding than ever with a formidable new lineup, Obsidian Refractions sees Cruciamentum deliver their most advanced, demanding and overpowering work yet. Taking everything in the band’s death metal paradigm to the next sonic measure beyond anything the band have previously released, this latest release combines the very essence and aesthetic of ancient cult death metal while encapsulating the dynamic, complex, next-level affectations relevant in today’s death metal landscape. The darkness and resonating unequivocal, uncompromising evil and magnitude surrounding Obsidian Refractions also builds upon the band’s aura of dark death metal majesty, combined with the progressive, savage and complex-yet-aggressive substance of the album through the unrelenting and ever tectonic-shifting riff assault. Witness a modern death metal monument unparalleled.
