SADIST

Release Year: 2022
Artist Origin: ITA
Style: intricate progressive technical death metal

adding exceptionally strong and experienced rhythmic duo of Romain Goulon and Jeroen Paul Thesseling, progressive death metal veterans certainly do not stray from their signature intricate and mesmerizing creative formula, marked by firm dedication to technical refinement with an exotic flair, and indeed, they do not really have intentions to sound much different - if anything, it leans slightly closer to the grandeur of classic era, yet to find faults in these nine compositions is an extremely difficult task, as everything is thought out to the last note, every detail precisely arranged, and the compelling, intense and spacious sound shapes one of Sadist’s most balanced releases, preserving both intellectual complexity and undiminished creative passion; black vinyl edition with a pro-printed lyric insert is limited to 250 hand-numbered units, copy #113
