Beheaded is a crushing band that plays death metal with a strong emphasis on rhythmic riffs combined with fast parts. Everything here is conceived to spread the brutality of the band to the ears of the listener. I loved specially the slower riffs combined with the hyper preecise double bass drumming that gives a lot of power to the tracks. Here we have a killer drummer who is technical and bryutal playing the fastest parts and changing rhythms with no difficulty. I must remark the guttural vocals which are powerful but at the same time clear enough to distinguish the lyrics of the songs. This is a CD that I will recommend to those who love brutality and intensity in music.

Favorite tracks: "Horde of the Stolen Sun", "Recounts of Disembodiment" and "Inherited Plague"
