ZEALOT CULT (Ireland) - Spiritual Sickness (new LP copy; not sealed) (2018) Released by Blood Harvest & Helter Skelter Productions on Traditional Black vinyl (includes double-sided lyric insert) (LP IMPORTED FROM SWEDEN)
Featuring incredible artwork from the Italian master himself, Paolo Girardi.  Instantly upon pressing "play" on Spiritual Sickness, this is the same whirl-winding ZEALOT CULT of before, only taken to bolder and more bellicose ends. 
Here exist those same strong, expertly integrated influences from classic Floridian Death Metal and especially the early Roadrunner/RC catalog which fostered same. 
And yet, ZEALOT CULT further manage to make epic, multi-dimensional majesty from that firm foundation, their compositions constantly rising and falling and taking dark 'n' doomed directions, all while remaining immediately memorable. 
So, while various strains of Pestilence, Death, Morbid Angel, and especially Obituary can be heard loud 'n' clear across Spiritual Sickness, its eight songs build upon said foundation and contribute to this rich legacy, underlining the unyielding ties to tradition whilst making majesty in modern times. 
Completed by clear-yet-crushing production and a fully satisfying 42 minutes, Spiritual Sickness is indeed aptly titled. The time is NOW to join the ZEALOT CULT! **album review originally published on bloodharvestrecords.bandcamp.com**  Blood Harvest – HSPBH-LP-046, Helter Skelter Productions – HSPBH-LP-046
