Description
ADVERSARIAL – All Idols Fall Before the Hammer 12″LP
Original pressing from 2011 on Blood Harvest Records.
This Canadian trio’s debut album after the great ‘Thralls’ DEMO (Zombie Ritual Tapes), ‘All Idols Fall Before the Hammer’ is an aural assault which blasts the listener through eight songs in over 36 minutes of blackened metal of death. Prepare to be struck by the Hammer of ADVERSARIAL!! Adversarial was formed from the desire to create dark, vicious music and is another outlet for its members to release blackened death metal fueled by the fire of ever tested convictions and beliefs. The ‘Thralls’ DEMO was released in 2008 and showed a promising band, even as a two-piece. Now with a full line-up to back up the dark & twisted sound of Adversarial, the band will enter the studio in the very near future to record their debut full length.
Excerpts taken from Jason Campbell’s review at Voices From the Darkside:
“The influences that are folded into their sound are sufficiently charged with an individualized touch such that the result is something intangibly unique. Evaluated under this rubric, “All Idols Fall Before The Hammer” is quite possibly the most phenomenal debut Death Metal LP since DEAD CONGREGATION’s “Graves Of The Archangels”.”
“There is little doubt in my mind that this record will not only be at the top of most Death Metal fans’ album of the year lists, but will also stand the test of time and be recognized as a classic of the post-Black Metal era of Death Metal.”
