Paths Of Possession - Promises In Blood

Third effort for Paths Of Possession after their split with Dark Faith out in 2003. PoP started as the band from former Morbid Angel guitarist Richard Brunelle. But nowadays the vocalist attracts attention. It is Corpsegrinder from Cannibal Corpse. Don't think PoP is a 2nd CC clone because they are not. George is singing a bit different and the songs are more mid paced tempo. Ofcourse their are breaks with accelerations but thier death metal is more orientated towards thrash. Headbanging is a must at these songs. Guitarleads, melody riffing and solid drums. The sound production is ok and with the nice artwork this is a great disc for death metal fans.
