5ş álbum de 2011 de los estadounidenses THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER, una de las bandas más importantes del Melodic Death Metal moderno. “Ritual” perfeccionó aún más la fórmula característica del grupo, ofreciendo una magistral combinación de velocidad, agresividad, técnica y melodía, al tiempo que mostraba una notable evolución en la composición y las atmósferas.
Con una potente producción y una inspirada interpretación de todos sus miembros, el álbum equilibra intensidad desbordante, melodías memorables y oscuras atmósferas con gran naturalidad. Considerado por muchos como uno de los trabajos más sólidos de su discografía, “Ritual” ayudó a consolidar definitivamente a THE BLACK DAHLIA MURDER como una de las referencias del Melodic Death Metal contemporáneo.
Recomendado para fans de AT THE GATES, ARSIS, THE HAUNTED, DARKANE y CARCASS.

Debut album from 1989 by the Canadian ANNIHILATOR, one of the essential releases of late 80s Technical Thrash Metal. “Alice in Hell” combines speed, aggression and an impressive display of guitar virtuosity from Jeff Waters, developing a sound that merges the intensity of classic Thrash with a more elaborate and melodic approach.
The album stands out for its complex song structures, memorable riffs and outstanding instrumental work, making it a mandatory reference within the genre. Tracks such as “Alison Hell”, “W.T.Y.D.” and “Human Insecticide” showcase a band capable of balancing technicality and impact without sacrificing any aggression.

13th album from 2014 by this legendary American Death Metal band, released after the acclaimed "Torture" and marking a new chapter as the first album since "The Bleeding" not to be produced by Erik Rutan. Far from affecting the quality of the material, the band once again demonstrated its remarkable consistency, remaining one of the leading institutions of Death Metal more than two decades into its career.
Its sound combines classic CANNIBAL CORPSE brutality with powerful production and particularly strong songwriting, highlighted by varied riffing, constant tempo changes and flawless musicianship. Balancing aggression, technicality and dynamics, the album stands among the strongest releases of the band's modern era and confirms its ability to evolve without losing its core identity.
Recommended for fans of: SUFFOCATION, MONSTROSITY, MALEVOLENT CREATION and DEICIDE. [Digipack]
