Wombbath are a band from Sweden that has been featured before in this zine and are a very legendary yet underrated death metal band and this is a review of t heir comeback 2015 album "Downfall Rising" which was released by Pulverised Records.
A very distorted sounding intro starts off the album along with the sounds of human's being tortured before going into a very fast old school Swedish death metal direction that also introduces growling vocals and blast beats onto the recording as well as some blast beats and morbid sounding melodies.
All of the music goes back to the bands early 90's style but with a more modern production and the songs also bring in a great mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while the guitar solos and leads are done in a very melodic fashion and some tracks also bring in a few seconds of synths and clean playing and you can also hear all of the musical instruments that are present on the recording.
Wombbath creates an album that goes back to their heavier style of death metal in the early 90's while also staying away from the death'n'roll style of later material to create a very true comeback, the production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover Satanism, gore, torture and violence themes.
In my opinion this is a very great sounding album from Wombbath and if you are a fan of this band, you should check out this recording. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Underneath The Rotten Soil" "I Am The Abyss" and "Putrid And Bound (By The Seed Of Satan)". 8 out of 10.
