Another embarrassing doubled up Record o’ the Month post? Wow, man. Just, wow. Just wait until you see how I didn’t choose the particular thing that you worship, again. I’m sure the comments section will be a delight.
Aenigmatum
Ænigmatum – Deconsecrate Review
“I’ve had my eye on Ænigmatum for two months now. As with most things that cross my path on the river Bandcamp’s neverending stream, the colorful but still fleshy and spiny cover for the Portland, Oregon quartet’s sophomore effort Deconsecrate caught my attention—and, thankfully, so did the advance track. It was a twisty, gnarled hurricane of blackened death metal from a label I normally associate with more knuckle-dragging fare. Needless to say, Ænigmatum seemed poised to deliver something fresh in a summer that’s been remarkably dry for this sponge.” Songs for scouring.
