It must be noted here that power trio Arcanum Sanctum, who hail from the icy landscapes of Moscow, Russia play a progressive yet heavy style of melodic death metal. “Veritas Odium Parit” picks up where In Flames and Soilwork left off a dozen or so years ago. This eight tracker simply smokes with its melodic, yet ear-ripping, shred leads and semi-atmospheric synths on a couple of their songs, which definitely keeps things even more interesting here. Musically, A.S. know what they’re doing, and sound like a 6-piece unit with the slew of talent they all possess with their instruments. People, again, do not forget this is a three-man group yet they sound so majestic in their hardhitting, nail biting melodic death metal.
Two of the noteworthy tracks to check out here are: “Beware The Dreamer” and “My Butterfly” with their intricate lead structures, insane riffs and head pounding rhythms that’ll knock the fucking life out of your soul.
Arcanum Sanctum have a fresh sound and a unique way of approaching melody driven death metal, and definitely put to shame the sold out In Flames and Soilwork.
Highly recommended for fans of Dimension Zero, Slayer, Death, Coroner and Kreator.
