KULT OV AZAZEL – Oculus Infernum


Who says that Americans can't play Black Metal? Kult ov Azazel blazes a true path of Black Metal that will shut up all of the elitists who believe that only Scandinavians can create Black Metal art. And after hearing this you will believe too. Hearing Kult ov Azazel is really a tremendous torture… in a good sense. "Oculus Infernum" is really a wicked Black Metal album not for everyone, especially for the Gothic Black Metal fans who are into those who mix keyboards and symphonic stuffs. The second full-length from this Florida-based band has definitely left me with my mouth open with astonishment!! Kult ov Azazel has created a ripping masterpiece that is fitting the standards of the genre perfectly yet offering this little extra to their style that makes them a notch over the others. Aggressive, fast, nasty… "Oculus Infernum" possesses everything a contemporaneous Black Metal fan should like and even more. This album exhibits 8 diabolic hymns, hateful blasphemic Black Metal - brutality and vitality can define their music more precisely. Incredibly rapid-fire drum-blasting and skull-shredding guitar riffs are executed with murderous professionalism and skill …pure terror, fucking holocaust, thunderous assault. Extremely insane creation of high quality… an extra point is added for the scorching, spiteful and devilish howls. What really strikes me is the way Kult ov Azazel can play so damn fast without sounding noisy or cluttered. And not a note is lost due to the excellent but raw as hell production. "Oculus Infernum" is a masterpiece of pure darkness and any fan of Black Metal would find what to like on this slab of pure evil.
