Review

From the outset on Sattvi Bali, the band showcase their talent, with a great melodic riff played high up the fretboard, before the band brings on the heaviness, playing that same riff down down an octave with more distortion amongst punchy mid-paced drums. With the two guitarists they have a great sound, their lead guitarist playing the lead riffs in a more melodic style higher up the fretboard, while the rhythm guitarist plays riffs with a great old school chunky tone, with a thick trebly sound similar to Asphyx. The vocals are fantastic, screaming away like a deeper, more tortured Chuck Schuldiner, in the Indian language of course, but it's the production on it that makes it work so well. Echoing slightly, there's a cavernous effect on the vocals, which range from more straight forward screams to brutal grunts. - 5/5
