Deamonicus - Host Of Rotting Flesh

Host Of Rotting Flesh is the debut album of Daemonicus, death metal band from Sweden born in 2006. After two well received demos this is the first important step for the guys and the final result is good enough to get the pass-mark but not a really positive vote. Daemonicus play an old school death thrash metal, clearly influenced by well known names like Dismember, Grave and many others, mainly based on mid tempos (never too fast and aggressive if we compare them with the biggest bands from their country), with a good dose of melody. It's clear that the guys have worked hard in the research of the right feeling and we have to say that sometimes the purpose's been reached: the problem is that Host Of Rotting Flesh is also often monotonous and boring, the tracks are quite well structured but still need the right crescendo and the real killer and memorable riff and so on... Daemonicus are not a band of beginners but their ideas are still not mature enough and perfectly expressed: they have to grow but they're already on the right way.
