AKERCOCKE - Choronzon
"This time round, Akercocke have had enough time and financial clout to deliver the album they've been threatening to make all along. And it's absolutely f**king magnificent. It's time to put all those long-held prejudices about death and black metal aside. Yes, this band use elements of those often staid genres; there are inhuman, guttural vocals that owe a great deal to Suffocation's 'Effigy Of The Forgotten', vitriolic riffs that resound with the evil simplicity of Possessed's 'Seven Churches', and enough Christ-slaughtering blastbeats from drummer David Gray to put even Morbid Angel's Pete Sandoval to shame." "There are countless moments of innovation that will dazzle and delight anyone lusting for a dash of the truly inspirational amid the pummelling subversion of their standard extreme metal fix. Whatever kind of music you generally listen to, this is one album that simply demands to be heard. You will not hear a more imaginative or daring record this year. The Devil doesn't just have all the best tunes, he also has the best album of 2003." KKKKK - Kerrang Review October 18th 2003
