Cutting the Throat of God

by Ulcerate

supported by

Jon M that is so good Favorite track: To Flow Through Ashen Hearts.

quaedd my 2024 album of the year and among the best post-metal i've ever heard. Favorite track: The Dawn is Hollow.

Abyssius Murkraken By far one of the most awe inspiring, thought provoking progressive technical death metal albums i have ever heard! These guys have a very specific sound and it is addictive. Feels like i have new standards for tech death after hearing Ulcerate. Highly recommended. Favorite track: The Dawn is Hollow.

Forbidden to see the evident In fires immersive Demolish the myth of permanence Imprisoned by inward revulsion The dawn is hollow Failing to distinguish between life and death The iconoclast’s separation from meaningless decay This adornment trivial when we will all burn Deception interwoven in poisoned judgement Transfixed by illumination Last steps to withdrawal The dust cannot settle as disorder persists The iconoclast’s separation from meaningless decay This adornment trivial when we will all burn Toward a bitter end Reckoning with the aftermath Of a future left wanting What once was whole Now shattered into pieces Lacerations are the sign to relinquish Foreshadow immiseration Toward a bitter end Unceasing dereliction Unrelenting decline Desolation is the arc of life’s motion

about

After triumphantly casting off the shackles of claustrophobic dissonance on 2020's lauded "Stare Into Death and Be Still", New Zealand unorthodox Death Metal legends ULCERATE up the ante even further with mind-bending 7th album "Cutting the Throat of God".

An acknowledgement that the band's most powerful and affecting material leans to the melodic side, this refined and hook-laden new record is a self-sufficient universe unto itself, a conflagration of inventively visceral Death/Black Metal where dizzying experimentation meets head-nodding abandon - obscenely twisted and addictive, heart-stopping in its depth of feeling.

After a quarter-century of playing music together, Hoggard/Saint Merat are cemented as one of the strongest guitar-percussion combinations in Extreme Metal, and their music has evolved organically into something completely its own. The most well-produced ULCERATE record to date, "Cutting the Throat of God" is filled with peerless rhythms, the band's smoothest transitions, most compelling phrasing, and truly staggering riffage. The exhilarating, liquescent flow is topped off by a destructively dynamic performance from vocalist/lyricist Paul Kelland.

"Cutting the Throat of God" explores a cohesive lyrical theme centered around the rupture of morality, the delicate boundary between depravity and extremity, and the irreversible descent into darkness.

Derrick manages to bring a bit of his Dream Unending urges into Tomb Mold, and with great effect. Every track on this is a winner, but "Will of Whispers" feels the most forward-thinking, mixing melody with heaviness and a near-fusion level of musicianship.

Everything comes together extremely well in this album. Probably my all time favorite black metal album now. The mix of atmospheric almost shoegaze playing leads extremely well into the intensity black metal normally has. The saxophone they use on almost all the songs really puts it above others in the genre for me. DevilsKnock
