The Pitch: A genre that is one of my favorites but rarely done great, Ravencult from Athens, Greece deliver torment and depravity with their latest bit of the blackened thrash.
What I Like: Vile, grim, and aggressive. This album is full of energy in both the guitar and drums. Certain tracks really get the blood boiling, and the vocals are extremely effective.
What I Don't Like: I know this keeps coming up, but it's no less relevant here: less is more. Especially when it comes to anything thrash, pushing beyond 3 minutes often detracts from what otherwise might be a truly ferocious track.
The Verdict: Force of Profanation is a thrashy good time, but one that would benefit from being much more concise. There is a clear reason why my favorites below are all under the 3:30 mark.
Flight's Fav's: "Altar of Impurity," "Tormentor of Flesh," "Doom Oracle"
