Death metal can be extremely blast heavy and dull, and with their band name and artwork you could be forgiven for thinking you'd know exactly how they sound before even listening, basically so challenging it's borderline unlistenable Well how nice it is to be proven wrong, these guys have everything I love about metal, riffs, hooks, proggy bits, and they're interesting, they are not a blast beat from start to finish and just extreme because why be melodic and wimpy, I love this band 😀
Found horrendous when Idol released and it was love on first listen. This album doesn't disappoint. It just sounds like the dudes are having the best time ever making music. It sounds fun.
Same here! Idol was just amazing, stupid good riffs all the way round, not a single dud on the album, clean vocals that fit perfectly with the rest of the music which can be described as chaotically dissonant yet melodically beautiful and moving at the same time... I mean Soothsayer is just the perfect example. Gotta listen to this one now though!
I couldn't handle the style of vocals prior to Ontological Mysterium. The vocalist really stepped up their game on this one. The earlier albums were cool. The riffs and leads where awesome but when the vocals came in I couldn't listen.
I would like to thank Jon the Metal Philosopher for recommending these guys. I’ve been listening to metal for 35 years and bands like Horrendous leave no doubt that the genre is in very good hands. 🤘
I heard these guys for the first time last week when I saw them open for Tomb Mold. It was also my first time hearing Tomb Mold. Horrendous blew me away; they were awesome!
I clicked the thumbnail on a whim only based on its color, not knowing who the artist was and after a few seconds I was getting ready to type a comment: "jeezz, they really must like Horrendous a lot"... Well, I may be blind but I sure ain't deaf :D
Decibel gave this a ten, I had high expectations. I'm not really into progressive metal, but this is killer. They make it catchy, riffs for days, cool vocals, sick bass- lots of Death/Cynic worship, but in their own style.
My favorite death metal band. The bass in particular is sick on this album in a way I don't remember on the prior albums, it meshes very well with the rest of the rhythm. Great production and mix, everything is heard clearly. I love that the band is embracing progressive touches while still keeping it thrashy death metal. This is the sweet spot for me, hopefully they find plenty to explore here. This is sounding like an all time classic. Keep it going, love what you're doing!
This is incredible work! I'm not so big into death metal as I am Black and Doom but this is just superb. The guitars hit with such force. Pearler arrangements. Thank you. Keep doing what your doing please!
Oh my god!! Outstanding stuff!!! First feeling was like history is written!! I never found so many fragments of Death-, Black-, Thrash-, Progressive- and Technical Death Metal in a single album!! Timeless masterpiece!! Unbelieveable - unbeatable!! Absolutely mind blowing!! Thank you very much!!!
imho no - maybe every riff in DM was played by someone in about 40 years of existence of the genre, but i dont think they stealed any song from anyone...@@JdjdbNdjdb
@@ivanferencuk2387 wow youre not vert smart. every single riff is stolen, thats what this bands does did tyou know that? lmfao not original at all, stolen riffs make me sick
This fucking rules, not a single stretch where it feels like they didn’t give their most concentrated effort. It’s hard to say that about the majority of metal records today
I just keep coming back here to hear this masterpiece, I guess I have to buy the vinyl now. Brilliant work and great interview with Heavy Metal Philosophy
After a few careful listenings, this album is a lot of fun, the band reached high level of songwriting and injected plenty of spirit in that work but still, I truly prefer the darker jazzy vibe of Idol
@@vardoger3379 Sorry, RUclips keeps deleting my comment because it mentions another website. But if you Google The Silver The Vagrant Soul it'll come up
This is the first time I'm listening to HORRENDOUS and I love it. On multiple occasions their hardcore sensibilities came through strongly, it almost sounded like Turnstile at times. Love the range and variety this band offers.
Chrysopoeia, Cult of Shaad'oah and Ontological Mysterium are so awesome, very Horrendous-ish. Aurora Neoterica is the new Siderea, love it too. I feel though that Ontolgical Mysterium didn't match their predecessors, Idol and especially Anareta, their best imo. Every song in these albums are great. But in Ontological Mysterium, i feel that some songs are just meh. But still a great album. Horrendous is for me one of the best Death Metal bands today, along with Revocation. Hope they someday come to Brasil.
The more I listen to it, the more I think this is not a mysterium, this is a fucking Ontological Compendium of extreme metal. The sense of artistical freedom coming off this record is insane.
A lot of Chuck worship here, I like it.
RIP Chuck
The bass playing is so nasty on this album!

Mixing Death Metal with Voivod Great!
Yeah, I'm hearing some shades of Voivod, Sigh, Wrathchild America...😅
Crazy mfers
I thought it so too, besides Death as well from symbolic's days and the early stuff from Chuck Schuldiner masterpieces
Massive thumbs up for the bassist, he's killing it here, stellar performance!
Best of the year contender, blends the agression of death metal with intrincated and progessive passages. Thanks for sharing Season of Mist!
Totally agree!
As a metal/punk artist I've always been driven when I feel like giving up on music I find something new and it expands my horizon.
Horrendous evolved so much since they added this amazing bass player
Death metal can be extremely blast heavy and dull, and with their band name and artwork you could be forgiven for thinking you'd know exactly how they sound before even listening, basically so challenging it's borderline unlistenable

RIFFS for days. Their music actually evokes emotion which I feel is rare
Especially in metal.
Death Metal Hawkwind. Nice. 🤘🏻🤘🏻
The lead tones on this album are absolutely second to none!
Found horrendous when Idol released and it was love on first listen. This album doesn't disappoint. It just sounds like the dudes are having the best time ever making music. It sounds fun.
The only time they have any more fun is playing live, their energy is insane.
Same here!

Metal is dead, long live metal! 🔥😈☠️
Listening in the warehouse!
Same. Warehouse metal gang unite.
Me too!
dont crash the ept
This is one of those bands for me that I'll just pre order the LP before hearing a single riff
Exactly what I did. No regrets
Sick avatar! I just got the picture disc version of that!
I heard these guys for the first time last week when I saw them open for Tomb Mold. It was also my first time hearing Tomb Mold. Horrendous blew me away; they were awesome!
Sooooo good! Both timeless and surprising. I get tired of most albums pretty quick, but you can tell this'll hold up to obsessive, heavy rotation.
This is WAY up there on the entertainment and talents scale. Really enjoyed this.
An album with absolutely no filler. Its a lean & mean, killing machine. Horrendous have put out another masterpiece. 🤘🤘
kinda reminds me of a mix of gothenburg melodeath mixed with Death. loved their previous records, and i love this one too.
Easily gonna be in my top albums of the year, and this year has been so sick in metal terms ♡♡♡
Holy shit the bass riffs on this thing … MASSIVE!!!
Title track, Chrysopoeia, Death Knell are definitely the highlights here.
Another great example that you dont need to be tunned down to F# to be fast aggressive and heavy.
This album just slays and kills it front to back.

these boys been spinning some cynic
Back and as good as ever! Exactly what I needed to get me through to the end of the work!
This album is incredible, I'm on my third playthrough and I could easily listen to it another 97 times at least.
Oh heck. They done did it again! 😍🔥🙌
Really interesting approach from album to album and this one's so unique I can't even tell where they're coming from.
They really fucking killed this shit, bravo man
Decibel gave this a ten, I had high expectations. I'm not really into progressive metal, but this is killer. They make it catchy, riffs for days, cool vocals, sick bass- lots of Death/Cynic worship, but in their own style.
Outstanding album!
Wow wow wow this is spectacular!
Such a crazy mix: thrash, death metal, prog (anybody else hears a bit of The Accüsed in the vocal style?). And really a pleasure to listen to.
Auf das Album freu ich mich im Jahr 2023 am meisten! Deathmetal der den Hörer nicht unterfordert und das Ohr schult.
Sublime
Merci pour le partage et la découverte 🎉🎉
Track 2 kinda Vektor-y and im here for it 🤘🏻
Yeah I heard it and wanted to beat my gf up
@@serpentinefire921 derrrr
Might be my favorite track in the album. Unfortunately I can’t pronounce the name
@@LguanadonTRex I believe it’s CRISS oh po EE ya

I've played this album like 5 times today.

magical. just finished up with the Bandcamp listening party and needed to hear this again
Same here. That was fun!
This is incredible work! I'm not so big into death metal as I am Black and Doom but this is just superb. The guitars hit with such force. Pearler arrangements. Thank you. Keep doing what your doing please!
I have a feeling its gonna come down to this and psygnosis' "mercury" for album of the year.
God-f***ing-damn! This is definitely one of the best releases for 2023! This album is incredible!!!
One of the best opening tracks I’ve heard in a good while, and the quality doesn’t drop for the remainder of the album!
Fuck yes!!! LETS GO!!!
Where?
i'm not going anywhere, until i'm finished listening to the full album!
I'm there
Oh my god!! Outstanding stuff!!! First feeling was like history is written!! I never found so many fragments of Death-, Black-, Thrash-, Progressive- and Technical Death Metal in a single album!! Timeless masterpiece!! Unbelieveable - unbeatable!! Absolutely mind blowing!! Thank you very much!!!
What a fantastic piece of art! Horrendous is definitely and ultimately one of the best and most innovative metal bands of 21st century.
innovative? every song is stolen from some other band lmfao

10/10 best band in the world ✨
New band to me, great musicianship throughout and varied. Will have to check out their other albums..
This fucking rules, not a single stretch where it feels like they didn’t give their most concentrated effort.
It’s hard to say that about the majority of metal records today
Great album but going to let it marinate before making my decision, so far Idol and Anareta are my top but this is good stuff.
I just keep coming back here to hear this masterpiece, I guess I have to buy the vinyl now. Brilliant work and great interview with Heavy Metal Philosophy
Some sweet lead on this.
Those are some nasty riffs son... Thanks Horrendous.
I’m here for the riffs 1:40
After a few careful listenings, this album is a lot of fun, the band reached high level of songwriting and injected plenty of spirit in that work but still, I truly prefer the darker jazzy vibe of Idol
So glad to see more from these guys.
I've always liked their vocals, but they really stepped them up here. Their new song with The Silver is fantastic too.
where might one find this new song from the silver?
@@vardoger3379 Sorry, RUclips keeps deleting my comment because it mentions another website. But if you Google The Silver The Vagrant Soul it'll come up
Their music never really clicked, but this one, holy macarony.
Finally!!!
Don’t know if I like it as much as idol but I’m going to give it more time
great album
Liking this tech-thrash infused turn they've taken.
This band is fucking incredible.
Man, how the fuck I only came to know about this Horrendou's release only a year later?!
As expected, another masterpiece!
Grandiossoooooooooo!!!!!!!!!🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
I wish there were more bands like this.
This is the first time I'm listening to HORRENDOUS and I love it. On multiple occasions their hardcore sensibilities came through strongly, it almost sounded like Turnstile at times. Love the range and variety this band offers.
HUGE
Wow! I love it ❤ No soy un escucha regular de este tipo de bandas más extremas, pero esto está muy original e inspirado. Congratulations guys! 🤘
This album just solidifies my personal Death comparison. Each album gets a bit more proggy while still standing firm in death metal. Incredible stuff.
God tier

Amazing!!!
fuck yeah
What an absolute banger of an album! masterful!
Easiest purchase of the year!
Holding off from listening until I get the vinyl is hard 😓😓😓
Strong album. Very Strong
Impresionante! Brutal obra de arte 👍👍👍👍
Please come tour this in Europe! ❤🔥🤘
Make Technical Thrash Great Again, great album guys!
Brilliant work from some of the most prolific metal artists of our times! Formidable and unpredictable. What a hell of an album!
This was beautiful
Compared to Idol, it's quite shocking but in a good way
As always, Horrendous delivers!
Rapaz, isso aqui é uma obra-prima!
Sensacional!
Hypppeeee
MAJESTIC BAND, CAN'T WAIT FOR THE EUROPEAN TOUR!
