Throneum - Decade of Necrostuprumical Madness
March 21 2008 at 02:10:52 AM

Contrary to this record’s title, Throneum has been around for six years, wreaking havoc with taut and genuinely aggressive Death Metal that benefits greatly from a refreshing enthusiasm and devotion to the genre’s war chest. Decade is a 23-song compilation of prior recordings, most of which differ little, showcasing torn throat vocals, scorching guitar work and unrelenting battery. With nary a selection reaching over four minutes, Throneum scream and slash through each song, applying gruff vocals in contrast to anguished shrieks; snare and cymbal rumble and crash; guitar that digs itself into deep ditches and rises quickly, shaking worms and dirt from its crusty form. Certainly not a weak link in the batch, and that’s saying something in a time when banal form is king over content.
