Kataklysm
“Heaven’s Venom”
2010
Amen to Kataklysm one of the most brutal technical death metal bands ever to grace the music industry. With hard hitting guitar riffs, bass that is spot on with harmonies with the percussion, and the percussion that makes you just want to brutally murder a pregnant nurse! I am telling you this band has what most so called death metal bands lack… dedicated to perfection. They have yet to release a song that in my eyes did not suck. Sure some of the songs are a bit mellow but with the guitar and percussion you cannot beat it. The vocals are spot on as well with awesome ranges in harmonics. This is a band that could be the poster band for what death metal should be. The tracks Determined, 1999:6661:2000, The REnnisance, and Blood in Heaven, are just a few of their hard hitting songs that will leave you begging for more ear raping. If you are a purveyor of death metal this band will leave you smoking a cigarette as if you just had sex with something other than your hand at a Metallica show.
