Death metal is one of those genres that always sounds the
same no matter the act portraying it, all that's built upon it is fast
instrumentals with growling or screaming vocal chords, that are so intense no
matter how hard you try to listen nothing makes sense. Acts like Cannibal
Corpse, Deicide, and Obituary have embraced this for the course of their
musical careers, but not only have they done it but other acts have as well,
for instance the Greeks in Obduktion, have been releasing material left and
right over the last 20 years, most recent being an EP "Mors Janua
Vitae". It contains 2-tracks one of which is their single "King Of
Terrors", this track is filled with tempo beats from mid-tempo to
slower-tempos it brings forth a double aspect of flipping between the two
making the guitar be more crafty wit it's source of tones. While the drumming
is slow yet steady but keeps up the pace with the bass and vocals layering atop
it all, making it round off to sounding intense and effective. "Lordship
of Superior", the only other track offered captures more of the guitar
momentum having the riffs, drums, and bass working on a higher level while the
vocals remain the same but still bring that effective stance of being intense,
making the music more eye catching and interesting. Obduktion's EP "Mors
Janus Vitae" may be brief yet intensifies the genre that is death
metal.
