Swedish Black Metal horde Pest are back, and with a vengeance! Their slightly delayed third fullength album is out, and I have to say that this album is, next to their amazing Blasphemy is My Throne minialbum, their best material to date. They have progressed somewhat since their last
release, while still maintaining the essence of Pest, and they even have songs here with a serious
groove to them. Their music is still mid-paced to fast, with mostly fast tracks, but with a slightly new approach at times. Musically they have some slight similarities to latter day Darkthrone and Armagedda on this release mixed with their own sound, which has become a bit angrier.
The vocals are a bit clearer, somehow, but still keeping their hateful aggression and harshness.
The instruments and the vocals are at the same level in the mix, so the production has been improved
since their last album. Very nice. Also they seem to have worked a bit more on the material here. After a while I got a bit tired of their last effort, but this album just keeps spinning in my player. Be sure to check this album out!
Standout tracks are "Thrones Ablaze", "A Vengeance Rising", "Slaves of Celestial Bounds" and "Dreams of Life Seem Morbid".
