Belgium’s Possession have released a four-song EP, His Best Deceit, of extreme madness.
After an (1:34) eternity-long intro, the real music gets going.
The band channels a deep, ‘fizzy’ production and simplistic song structure in to four intense tunes.
Mixing equal parts Bathory, Sodom, Bloodstorm, and maybe a little Morbid Tales era Celtic Frost or even an early ‘bleak’ practitioner like Burzum, Possession emphasize brutality over virtuosity.
Track highlight: “Possession”.
Give them a few more years immersed in ‘the scene’, and they’ll have a greater command of their instruments.
The band will be a crushing songwriting force that will be glorious to witness.
