Witness Häxan Sabaoth. Both a culmination of their characteristic aesthetic and a whole new, supernatural twist upon it, Häxan Sabaoth sees UNAUSSPRECHLICHEN KULTEN fusing clanging angularity with haunting atmospherics, delirious chaos with eerie melodicism, epic narrative with primal crush - essentially, an extrapolation (and intensification) of seemingly polar opposites. And yet, through that same strange magick, the Chileans conjure a tableau that's undeniably their vastest and most violent to date. Riffs and rhythms pound and mutate with hypnotic ease, breaking down the listener's will; momentum becomes slipstreaming, with dread sounds bubbling up from every crevasse of this abyss; motifs then flicker with frightening clarity before disintegrating into something equally dread-inducing. For however "pure" and primordial UNAUSSPECHLICHEN KULTEN's death metal is, there's' daresay a newfound grace across Häxan Sabaoth - malodorous and miasmic, yes, but it effectively lends an airiness to what's already an exceptionally dense & dissonant foundation. Likewise, the considerably cleaner production ably intensifies the atmosphere with no sacrifice in physicality. That the cover art manages to capture this whole dichotomy is surely no accident.
