Crypt Hammer's self-titled debut album is a brutal and unrelenting assault on the senses. The band's blend of death and black metal is executed with precision and ferocity, resulting in a truly punishing listening experience.
From the opening track "The Tomb of the Forgotten Ones," Crypt Hammer establishes their dominance with crushing riffs, thunderous drums, and guttural vocals. The album doesn't let up from there, with tracks like "Catacombs of Horror" and "Ritual Sacrifice" delivering more of the same bone-crushing intensity.
Despite the unrelenting aggression, there is a certain level of technicality and intricacy to the music that sets Crypt Hammer apart from other bands in the genre. The guitar work is particularly impressive, with intricate solos and harmonies adding depth and nuance to the otherwise brutal sound.
