The first Polish band to win M2tm in England, Ashborn deliver some seriously grooving metal.
“Mute,” is the first song on the record. It starts things off with a piano introduction that slowly filters through, twisting and turning into a line that produces one of the great scotts. “Monsters,” is next. Producing a thunderous riff and a slanting and changing torment, the song shows a band in peak form. “Crush Ant,” roars into being, demanding to be heard and ensuring the listener knows just where to go. “If The Walls Could Speak,” is a swaggering master piece constantly turning over and over. “Light That Creates Darkness,” smothers over the raft of hell and then twists and turns into something new and exciting.
“Awakening From Death,” is a snarling monster, that twists and turns into a filtering cesspit of destruction and chaos, brutally executed. “This Is Slowly Killing Us,” snaps and turns with the added bite of the maddening chaos. “We Are Going To Die,” brings about the edge of the world, allowing for a chaotic goodness to bring itself through. “Every Word,” snaps and crunches. “When Darkness Comes,” truly brings the house down.
The album is out now.
