Blood Mantra: CD + DVD

Formed in 1996, Polish tech death masters Decapitated have built a reputation as one
of the leaders of their genre and their five studio albums are considered to be some
of the scene’s most influential releases.For their sixth full-length record, ‘Blood Mantra’, the band returned to Hertz Studio,
located at Bialystok in their native Poland. Recording the new creation has proven to
be an extremely demanding process for Decapitated as they have never before faced
such a challenge – the band cross-bred various styles and sounds, setting the bar
higher with this new release. Flirting with various tempos, mixing death metal with
grindcore and black metal atmosphere with more groove laden beats and stoner rock
vibes. There are also modern rhythmic metal riffs that hark back to their 2006
release, ‘Organic Hallucinosis’.“I’m certain that the very fact we are again, after nine years, in Hertz studio will
evoke the spirit of that album. Rasta is a much more experienced vocalist compared
to the ‘Carnival Is Forever’ album times. And his voice sounds more powerful and
deeper,” stated guitarist Waclaw ‘Vogg’ Kieltyka. Vogg himself, the band’s musical
mastermind, also delivers on ‘Blood Mantra’, creating songs with blazing tempos,
crushing riffs and memorable guitar solos.The album will also be the first to feature new drummer Michal Lysejko, who joined
the foursome in time for their tour with Lamb Of God in January 2014. With their
emphasis on inventive songwriting and technical prowess, Decapitated have earned
the respect of their musical peers and have gained a devoted fanbase.TracklistingCD
