User Album Review
2013's "Okkult" was damn near album of the year and certainly one of the finest in the subgenre. Now five years later...we can finally hear the much anticipated "Okkult II."
One of the biggest differences between part I and II is that the band has nearly stripped down all of the symphonic elements and, much to the delight of this author, has relied heavily on the power of riffs. Fear not though, some of those symphonic elements are still present, but merely act as accents rather than an overpowering force, which is best depicted in the shredding "Bloodshed And Triumph," "All Men Must Die" and "Infernal Sabbath."
However, in most cases..."Okkult II" is a full on return to sheer brutality - best shown on songs like "Shadowtaker," "Spell of Blood" and and the absolute crusher "The Golden Dawn."
On "Okkult II," Atrocity strips it down even further to what really matters...the core of its death metal riffs, thus giving birth to the pure and familiar child of evil. The guitars are a feast for the ears and a overwhelming reminder of what makes metal, metal. Letting the riffs wash over you like purifying fire is the perfect bath, allowing authors like myself to reset and be able to take on the crap that fills the inbox on a weekly basis. The rotten air of death has never been so refreshing.
