Ashen - Ritual Of Ash CD

Hailing from Perth (Australia), Ashen delivers a crushing 10-track barrage of classic yet modern-sounding death metal. Ritual of Ash bridges the gap between Swedish buzzsaw groove (Entombed, Dismember, Bloodbath) and punishing American death metal power (Morbid Angel, Cannibal Corpse, Necrot). The album balances neck-breaking speed, heavy mid-tempo stomps, and dark macabre atmospheric passages without sacrificing song structure or memorability.
