THE BEAST

Nocturnal Hollow (USA) – Wretched Rituals - Reviewed By cultmetalflix ! check it out https://cultmetalflix.wordpress.com/2023/08/14/introducing-23-with-a-thunderous-roar-5/

Proving yet again that they can deliver the Old School goods Nocturnal Hollow drop another opus upon the masses. And it takes but a few seconds for the message to hit home. These guys aren’t screwing around. Brandishing a buzzsaw tone, enough hooks to strike fear in the fleshy denizens of a nearby large body of water and melodies enough to excite even those whose interests might have only recently been perked by the realm of extreme audio. This release encompasses eight tracks to spark the senses into moshtastic frenzy. Varied in texture and emblazoned with atmosphere this strangely isn’t all that removed from the assumed (genre) template, although it somehow delivers that certain something to lift it from the  hordes of wannabes. The tempos within are varied, give nods to a slew of genre stand outs including (not surprisingly) At the Gates, Entombed, Dismember, Lik, Unleashed, Carcass, Vomitory and Jungle Rot. However, in instances other influences swirl around the familiarity senses, a few which are not quite so expected; Candlemass being an example. The album flows with a fantastic fluidity, tempo ‘flares’ alight movement and the production of the pummeling (drums) heightens the adrenaline, inciting one to bop along (and that’s the only 60’s reference you’ll find here). The album comes complete with a fitting bestial throat accompaniment with and the whole carves another high caliber notch upon the totem of the acts discography for others to gaze upon in wonder and attempt to emulate.
Seriously, these guys do not get enough credit. Jump on this stat!
