GOG - Self Titled Release (2021)


This heavy bass driven death metal is a notable act. Speed and slowness in a brutal way is what do you get. GOG's production is actually loud and audible. The pace on this cd interchanges quite frequently. Ranging from fast drumming to mid pace sections and to spice it up they throw in some crunching doom riffs. Vocals are extreme raw. Basically it is like a slow moving tank. How it arrives and you hear it coming. The sound being the loudest when passing but also faded when leaving. The best thing about this album is it is actually headbangable! Unlike other acts.  GOG proves this "noise" can be put into very productive ways. By creating a single deep heavy sound with variety thrown into a melting pot. And what comes out is brutal death metal with a hint of doom in this 2021 release that shall be the marching drums to your death!

Stand out tracks: "Reduced To One Atom" and "Chemical Boar"
