Sepulchral – Beneath the Shroud
Genre: Death Metal
About: Sepulchral’s sophomore full-length Beneath the Shroud digs into grim, old-school death metal — filthy guitars, murky riffs, cavernous vocals and a raw, unpolished production that channels the grit of early ’90s Swedish- and Scandinavian-style death metal. Reviewers call it a “rotten triumph of old-school death metal filth,” filled with decaying atmosphere and old-school savagery.
