Powerful album from this death gods ! The first things that take your attention here is how well mixed the guitars are, specially the rhythmic ones that are a kick in your face. The sound, to give you an idea is like having a mix of Morbid Angel and Fear Factory and throwing this into a brutal death metal machine. There are some interesting lead guitars phrases thrown into this mix too (there is a killer solo in "With Blood they Pay" with good legato technique and some tapping too). There are no subtle things here, everything here is designed to crush you like a one thousand ton hammer (ten ton hammer is for Machine Head, so I think One thousand ton hammer is more apropriated for Aeon). Fans of brutality will have orgasms here !!. Favorite tracks: "With blood they pay", "The Return of Apolluon". Contact: www.necropolisrecords.com
