Rorcal - Creon (Division Records) 2016
8
Switzerland, the country that gave us Hellhammer, Celtic Frost, Darkspace, and Samael, has once again a heavyweight in its extreme music ranks… even if you are not aware of Rorcal. Three years ago, they unleash Világvége and left their mark with an unrelenting piece of black metal with some sludge/hardcore. Now with Creon, their new and fourth full-length, they go the extra mile and perfect their craft delivering an acutely assault to the body and soul of epic proportions. 51 minutes divided by four tracks that never fail to evolve and shift ensuring that its length has a purpose and merit. A concept that involves the death of four well known Greek characters, all linked to Creon, is the base to an overwhelming, intense, and precise album.
