Early Sodom\/Sepultura type production is also part of this sound&#8217;s foundation. The question is this: is this by accident, or un-purpose? We&#8217;ll see in the coming period&#8230; I, for one, enjoy this type of stuff, because underneath the raw, unproduced production, there is, in every song, a real aspect of individuality to each song. As the simple guitar &#8220;solo&#8221; on song #5, &#8220;Ritual of the Advent&#8221;  demonstrates, Eddie Van Halen is no influence here. The cover of Possessed&#8217;s &#8220;Satan&#8217;s Curse&#8221; is heavier on the bottom end than the original version. Overall, this is pretty raw death metal  from Mexico. Beware though, it&#8217;s not Emperor or Morbid Angel, more like children of Hellhammer.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you are familiar with Samael&#8217;s, &#8220;Worship Him&#8221; or with the wonderful early 80&#8217;s feel of Pentacle (big time Hellhammer-influenced death metal), then you might enjoy Sargatanas.
