Gosudar - Morbid Despotic Ritual LP
GOSUDAR (Russia) - Morbid Despotic Ritual (2021) Your choice of Bronze Swirl (limited to 100 copies) or Black vinyl (limited to 400 copies).
With solely a 2 track demo to their credit, Russia’s Gosudar quickly solidified themselves as a future force to be reckoned with within the realms of Atmospheric Death Metal. Now, nearly 3 years later, the Moscow based trio re-enters the arena with their debut full length, Morbid Despotic Ritual, their sound fully realized and developed.
With gut-churning vocals and seasick serpentine riffage, Gosudar wind their way through twisted, psychotic arrangements, while never sacrificing their oppressive heaviness for technicality, nor disregarding the sheer power of a razor-sharp hook. It’s a cyclonic style of Death Metal chaos crucial for fans of Dead Congegration, Mortiferum, Pissgrave and Incantation. I honestly cannot recommend this album enough if you consider yourself a fan of the modern take on Death Metal - one that certainly stands near the top of the new breed. **originally published on gosudardeath.bandcamp.com** Rotted Life – Rotted28
