Endemic Divine
Deivos
Poland, since the fall of Socialism/Communism between the end of the 80s and the beginning of the 90s, became a fertile country in terms of Metal, especially extreme Metal bands. Since VADER started to unleash a violent and brutal form of Death Metal on Polish lands, it seems that the band helped to shape the local scene, because there are many common features between Polish extreme Metal bands. And it is always good to hear names that we previously know, as the quintet DEIVOS. And again I have the pleasure to deal with their work, now with "Endemic Divine", their latest review.
Their musical style remains the same: brutal and aggressive, but always with a very good technical insight guiding all. And as I said above, the musical genes of the band carries the same features of every Death Metal from Poland. But don't get the wrong idea, because they have a strong and bold personality pulsing under this thunderous mass of brutality. The sound quality of "Endemic Divine" is really good. The balance between the aggressiveness of their musical work with the good level of sound clarity was done in a way that we can truly assimilate their songs without problem. And the nasty brutality of their musical work comes of the songs themselves along with very good instrumental tunes.
Their best killings: the oppressive and technical "Daimonion" with very good tempo changes (the drummer is really an octopus, with a heavy and technical work), the morbid massacre unleashed by the guitar riffs on "Apeiron", the strike of aggressive technique of "Dust of the Universe" (here, the vocals are really amazing with these guttural way), and the thunderous assault of "Through the Eyes of the Hangman" (with some wonderful bass guitar parts). Again, they unleashed a very good album. Keep the high spirit!
