Album Review
Impending Doom - The Serpent ServantImpending Doom - The Serpent Servant

Impending Doom is a five-piece Christian death metal band from California that started in 2005, This is there 2nd release on the Facedown Records Label.

The album Starts with Wgen Waters Run Deep, a more regular metal sound, then the death growls towards the end of the opening track start, kickstarting the following track,The Serpent Servant with blast beats, before slowing down to a grind in parts of the song, even at almost 3 and a half minutes the track seems to drag on. The album is heavy with its down tuned guitars and in places kicking up a gear showing good blast beat drumming from Chad Blackwell, the death growl vocals from Brook Reeves are at times ledgable, The an almost accessible track to non fans of this genre is More Than Conquerors, its a good fast track that holds the listener from start to finish, with good solid guitar work from Manny Contreras & Cory Johnson in the break down.The tracks at times seem to be a tad too long, they seem to drag even when the times are around the 3.30 mark, although the tracks near the end of the album fall under the 3 minute mark and seem to go by quicker.

This album is released on the 30th of March.

3/5
