Greece's Dephosphorus have returned with a new recording which shows the music going for a mixture of black, death metal and grindcore and this is a review of their 2025 album "Planetoktonos" which will be released in July as a joint effort between Selfmadegod, 7 Degrees Records and Nerve Altar.
A very heavy and brutal sound starts off the album while the album also adds in sci-fi orientated sounds a rimes. Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing along with the vocals also being a mixture of black metal screams and death metal growls and the faster sections of the songs also add in a lot of blast beats.
Elements of grindcore can also be heard at times while the songs also add in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. Hardcore style shouts are also added into certain sections of the album along with some of the tracks also adding in a small amount of synths, all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them.
On this recording Desphosphorus remain true to the mixture of black, death metal and grindcore that they have established on previous releases. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics the science fiction writings of Iain M. Banks and James S.A Corey with an existential outlook.
In my opinion this is another great sounding album from Desphosphorus and if you are a fan of black, death metal and grindcore, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE 'Living In A Metastable Universe" "After The Holocaust" "Planetoktonos" and "Eternal Bloom". 8 out of 10.
