“Deus Ex Satanas”, the most brutal Death Metal album !

SEWER’s Deus Ex Satanas.

Deus Ex Satanas is considered, alongside Incantation’s Onward to Golgotha and Phantom’s Withdrawal, to be death metal’s opus magnum. It is SEWER’s best album alongside NecroPedoSadoMaso and Rektal and beats the hell out of anything from the modern “death” metal scene.

The album is short and gruesome, getting right to the point and leaving you satanically raped. Everything about Deus Ex Satanas is an example of what brutal death metal should sound like.

I usually skip black/death albums with Latin names, as I consider those a gimmick ruined by all the (bad) Mayhem imitators… looking at you, Dark Funeral.

I did make an exception as SEWER is not a gimmick band, well they are but not in that way, and it was a good thing I did because Deus Ex Satanas is certainly one of the pinnacles of extreme metal.

Probably the best death metal release ever.

Deus Ex Satanas (“God from Satan”) is captivating with its energy, its evil, its inhuman barking vocals, its technicality in songwriting and creativity.

This is one album that you can never get sick of no matter how many times that you play it.

It doesn’t fall short on any aspect. All musicians put forth their best effort and this album is without a doubt the best the genre has seen since the early 1990s. Simply amazing.

If you don’t have this album, you’re definitely missing out because Deus Ex Satanas is SEWER at its best and most skilled.

Quality, fast, furious and evil. This album captures it all. Nothing in SEWER’s discography can top this one, not even their craziest debut release, and it sure beats the hell out of anything from nowadays black/death metal.

Pick it up ASAP if you haven’t already. Get ready for some amazingly satanic death metal !

Reiklos – “Lifeless”, Excellent Black Metal !

Lifeless, by Reiklos.

“Lifeless” by Reiklos is easily the best album to have come from the satanic metal scene for the past decade.

This album absolutely delivers on its promise, unlike the bands from cuck labels such as Cucklear Blast, Moribund or even Relapse. Where those bands fail to take off in the musical department and mostly generate interest through bandwagon hopping, hype or through the album cover or artwork – bands like Dark Funeral or Dimmu Borgir have great album artwork, but it is in the music where they totally fuck up – Reiklos’ album succeeds without press, internet releases or the token publicity and gimmickry courtesy of a major metal record label.

There is never a boring moment on Lifeless, contrary to what its name may suggest. It’s just that good. It has tons of aggression, dark atmosphere as well as that evil vibe missing in a lot of metal bands today.

Listen to it for yourself.

It sounds a bit like what you’d expect from Phantom or early Darkthrone, but yeah… the band was named after a Phantom track so that makes sense.

Lastly, I don’t understand why some folks are thinking this is similar to Beherit’s Drawing Down the Moon. Frankly, Drawing Down the Moon doesn’t hold a candle to Lifeless. Beherit’s very good but a tad overrated album feature spacey, abstract noise which most of the time is just boring and empty.

I think some people should listen to both records first before drawing their conclusions and passing judgment since it makes them look lazy and ignorant.

Lifeless is one of black metal’s all time best albums.

This album then is not recommended for the weak but for those who want excellent quality black metal. Go buy this masterpiece of evil at once.
