7 years since their last album, the death metal-band Morbid Angel from Florida released a new album that took 5 years in the making. One can wonder why the album is such mediocre when they had so much time. In a few songs the band has mixed in techno-beats instead of real drums and, tried to make something new? These songs are terrible; I don't mind them trying something new, and why not try this, but it really isn't any good at all, just endless repetition of the same beat and lyric-lines. The "normal" songs on the album are better but it's just too much for me.  I want to have more melody and heavy riffing, not just playing as fast as possible.

On this album Destructhor is the new 2nd guitarrist. He is norweigan and has played with Myrkskog and Zyklon. It's the 1st album to feature drummer Tim Yeung who replaced longtime drummer Pete Sandoval who has undergone back surgery. Tim plays with Divine Heresy and World Under Blood.

1)Omni potens (-) Intro.

2)Too extreme (2,0) Crazy and meaningless mix of death metal and techno.

3)Existo vulgore (6,0) This is real death metal! Skullcrushing superfast drumming and brutal vocals. Too repetitive refrain though.

4)Blades for Baal (5,0)

5)I am morbid (5,0) A heavy metal-song. Boring.

6)10 more dead (6,0)

7)Destructor vs the earth/attack (3,5) Strange Rammstein-marching techno-track.

8)Nevermore (5,0) Sounds just like some of the other tracks. No variation, just aggressivity and boring vocals.

9)Beaty meets beast (4,0)

10)Radikult (5,0) More variation but the techno-marching is also present here. Terrible.

11)Profundis-Mea culpa (2,5)

Score: 4,40
