Fisthammer are a band from Pennsylvania which has been featured before in this zine that plays a very brutal and technical form of death metal and this is a review of their self released 2014 album "Infallible".
The album starts out with acoustic guitars and dark sounds before adding in growls and screams which leads up to the recording going into a heavier direction along with all of the musical instruments having a very powerful sound to them along with solos and leads before going into a more brutal death metal direction.
As the album progresses blast beats are added into certain parts of the recording along with a mixture of mid paced and fast parts as well as some melody and black metal elements and at times acoustic guitars are added in briefly and the music also gets very technical sounding at times, and when we get more into the recording black metal vocals are added in certain parts.
With this recording Fisthammer continue their brutal and technical approach to blackened death metal while also bringing in a great amount of melody along with a dark and occult atmosphere being mixed in at times.
Song lyrics cover darkness, occultism and mythology themes, while the production has a very strong, powerful, heavy, brutal and professional sound for being a self released recording where you can hear all of the musical instruments that are present on this album.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Fisthammer and if you are a fan of brutal, technical blackened death metal, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Evoking The Wrath Of The Revenants" "Temple Of Poseidon" "The Coven" and "The Conjuration Of the Fire God". 8 out of 10.
