Putrid are a band from Peru that plays a mixture of blackened thrash and death metal and this is a review of their 2020 album "Antichrist Above" which will be released on March 13th by Godz Of War Productions.
A very heavy and brutal sound starts off the album while the faster sections of the songs also add in a great amount of blast beats. Vocals are mostly blackened metal screams along with the music is also very heavily rooted in a 90's death metal style and tremolo picking can also be heard in t he faster sections of the songs.
When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are done in a very chaotic yet old school style while the songs also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. elements of thrash metal are also utilized quite a bit throughout the recording as well as the riffs also adding in a small amount of dark sounding melodies at times.
As the album progresses a brief use of spoken word parts can be heard briefly along with one of the tracks that being very long and epic in length and all of the music also sticks to a very heavy and brutal musical direction. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover ancient myths, demons, death, blasphemy and apocalyptic themes.
In my opinion Putrid are a very great sounding mixture of blackened thrash and death metal and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Warfare In Golgotha" "The Corpse Of The Messiah" "Pig Of Liars" and "Morbid Prayers Of Death". 8/5 out of 10.
