I took a Comparative Politics class in college with this Indian professor, and he would tell us "In India, we have a saying: you don't cast your vote, you vote your caste"
Yes, Roman gods were partying too hard for centuries, so they weren't able to fight back the Germanic ones. Suddenly they woke up christianized, surrounded with popes and vikings.
demise of poverty and underlying 3rd world issues in India. A country whose market stability is on Import/less of Export, not a manufacturer hub and slum-stricken land.
@corrupt - Indians are gullible. Easily convinced to what establishment does at macro level. You can easily manipulate with them building religious conscreations, which he did buidling Ram Mandir. Sweeping votes on demise of pover
Starspawn was one of 2016's most hyped albums in the metal underground. In the midst of a death metal renaissance, Blood Incantation delivered a debut full-length that cashed in on the good reputation they gained after their 2015 EP, Interdimensional Exctinction. And while countless bands are looking back at the genre's roots nowadays, unfortunately most seem unable to move away from ultimately being characterized plain copycats; Blood Incantation, however, is not one of these bands.
Nah, this has a general "likeability" which for the most part, matches those of the other great dm albums released last year.
It is excellent too eventhough I prefer Howls of Ebb to it. But still doesn't make us enjoy this any less.
I mean the album is basically Morbid Angel's Blessed Are the Sick that's pumped to the brim with Timeghoul and shot towards the planet Nocturnus. I think the problem that Jooe and gang have with it is that, yes, its not an album that 'moves the genre forward' so to speak. Its rather an album that looks back at what made the old '90s Florida death metal records so great and rather than copying it verbatim like 80% of other death metal bands do, they added to it techniques learned over the genre's 25 year evolution. It feels modern but tickles that itch that the old records used to scratch. (Kinda getting deja vu with the Chthe'ilist thread over here).
That being said, I still think that Howls of Ebb and Vanhelgd as well as a few others released better death metal records this year. Hell, this album didn't even break into my top 20 (though to be fair it was a really good year hehe)
