With Guts & Glory [LP]

Centinex, the Swedish death metal legends, have returned with their most ferocious and uncompromising offering yet. Guts And Glory is a raw, high-energy album that ditches the excess and focuses on what matters: unrelenting riffs, d-beats, and thrash-infused aggression. Stripping away atmospheric frills and polished production, Centinex return to their roots with a sound that combines the ferocity of early death metal with the urgency of punk. Whether it's the punishing gallop of the riffs or the blazing d-beat drum patterns, this album is an all-out sonic assault - as fast as it is brutal, with no time to spare. "Centinex continue to deliver what only they can: fast, brutal death metal with punk energy that hits like a freight train. If you loved the aggression of old-school death and thrash, this is for you." The band pushes themselves to the edge, delivering 8 tracks of relentless, stripped-back death metal that kicks you in the teeth from the first note to the last. It's not pretty, it's not supposed to be. It is pure, raw aggression, and it's exactly what the underground has been craving.
