Description
‘Mortem Solis’ is the twelfth studio album by Brazilian death metal band Krisiun, released on 29th July 2022 by Century Media records.
The masters of Brazilian old-school death metal Krisiun are back. Following their last album, ‘Scourge of the Enthroned’ (2018), the three brothers from Sao Paulo deliver another blistering and incredibly powerful new album. With this being their twelfth album, it is safe to say the band has a sound and style which they generally stick to and that is very much the case here on ‘Mortem Solis’. A classic case of if it aint broke, dont fix it. The band have stated that Mortem Solis is more straightforward. We cut everything that we deemed unnecessary to make it as brutal as possible.
The results speak for themselves with songs such as ‘Sworn Enemies’, ‘Swords Into Flesh’, ‘Necronomical’, ‘War Blood Hammer’ and ‘Worm God’ being hyperactive displays of brutal old school death metal with the bands trademark frantic riffing and machine gun blast-beats raining hellfire out of the speakers. There is very little in the way of a breather on the album with the only exception being an atmospheric interlude ‘Dawn Sun Carnage’ and one or two songs starting at a slower pace before exploding later on.
‘Mortem Solis’ is another solid album from Krisiun that plays to all the bands strengths and is an ultra violent and brutal piece of old school death metal carnage. There is very little in the way of surprise or innovation here but twelve albums in Krisiun dont need to prove anything to anyone and just write and perform the music they love. Plus this is old school death metal, so you should know exactly what you are getting and enjoy it regardless. Krisiun keep the flames of death metal burning and keep on doing things the old way and it is thoroughly enjoyable.
