Well I am not familiar with these dudes at all and before I listen my mind goes into a bad place when I see anything with the word 'programming' by a band member's name, not that there's anything wrong with that but I am usually not going to be into it.

So I start listening with a tainted mind and much to my surprise sounds really fucking sweet. The programming (drums) sounds nice. I am digging the guitar sound and the vocals, the bass is hidden underneath somewhere but no big deal the guitar tones are brutal.

The band is touted as technical death metal but It's not too technical that it loses it's bite and ear candy, plus it's not over the top technical. There is some cool licks and chords mushed up through out for a nice blend of technical to basic (plenty of strums and grinding riffs). I'm not a solo guy and there is plenty of solo's here but they are tasteful and not the sporadic I'm playing fast high notes variety...In my opinion there are a cross of Immolation (lots of guitar squeals/harmonics) meets Hate Eternal and that's not a bad combo at all.

​These guys sound like they spent a lot of time putting this together and it shows, The song titles are all classics, my favorites are "To cum is to Die" and "Fornicating in the blood of the mutilated". Anyway this is solid and the production is mighty sick so check it out.
