Gerogot - Eidoloklas - CD

Indonesia's GEROGOT are prepared to unleash the ultimate expression of their flesh-dissolving, bone-breaking, soul-rending horror... 'Eidoloklas'.

GEROGOT have been an ever-present force on the burgeoning Indonesian brutal death metal scene for more than a decade. Now they're prepared to unleash the ultimate expression of their flesh-dissolving, bone-breaking, soul-rending horror... 'Eidoloklas'. With "The Barrier Collapses" wave after wave of pure destructive force is unleashed, grinding and crushing at furious velocities, with superb intricate guitar riffs rising up through the tumultuous onslaught. There's barely a moment to reflect on the damage done before a second strike of formidable power and intensity hits, "Presage" delivering punishing blows between blinding blasts of speed. It's a breathless pattern that's maintained throughout 'Eidoloklas', tightly controlled attacks, precise and purposeful, landing in a whirlwind of violence. The vocals are an inhuman rumble of absolute hostility, emotionless and pitiless as they roar across the immense blasts and staggering riffs like lurching monstrosities and disfigured demons. The malicious strength is uniform throughout this litany of eradication, be it "A New Dogma" where shocking intensity collapses into a screaming, squirming morass of sickness before unleashing a fresh barrage of unbelievable fire power, or the wild annihilation of "Drowned in Fear" where vocalist Krisna Saptian seems gripped by an uncontrollable blood rapture. Each track seems harder, faster, more skull crushing than the last as 'Eidoloklas' charges on, until right at the end where we slam into the monolithic presence of "Will Come..." The frenzy dissipates, becoming a bleak and broken crawl through the ruins of the world, heavy with portents of a new order, built upon blood and destruction. Expertly mixed and mastered by Indra Cahya at Texas Sicklab, 'Eidoloklas' sounds unstoppable. The superb artwork of Andik Godfinger provides the final touch, completing GEROGOT's most explosive album to date. When Comatose Music set this beast loose on November 20th, nothing will stand in its way...
