Success Will Write Apocalypse Across the Sky - The Grand Partition And Abrogation of Idolatry

This Death Metal band from Tampa, FL, S.W.W.A.A.T.S. formed in 2006 and features former members of Bodies in the gears of apparatus and dehumanized. The music that this band have made has been described as bleak and impetuous, turbulent with a hopeless sound.

The album kicks in right away at break neck speed, no intros, no forewarning, just straight in bludgeoning you with its technicality, fast guitar work from Aaron Haines & Ian Sturgill and drumming by Mike Heller, and there's hardly any breaking down at random places in the the songs. All the songs are clear and full but still being rough and grinding, there's very little let up from this Tampa black metal outfit. The vocals are conventional guttural death growls from vocalist John Collett. The music at times almost grooves but there are many changes to the tempo and rhythm of the songs while still going full tilt balls to the wall death metal.

If your after something heavy, bleak, and extremely fast but at times accessible due to the decent production of this album then i recommend that you look out for it on the nuclear blast label on the 13th of April.

3/5
