Album Notes & Community Reviews

Returning to peak form after several turbulent years, the Canadian outfit significantly refines their incredibly fast, chaotic 'northern hyperblast' drumming technique. 'Epic: The Poetry of War' introduces strong, soaring melodic guitar leads to their bludgeoning death metal sound, leaning heavily into grand, war-themed lyrical concepts.
