Inferi - The Awakening Of The Black Hordes

Review by Sherman Brown

The Awakening Of The Black Hordes is the latest album by the American technical death metal band, Inferi. The album was released on April 12, 2019, and it features nine tracks that showcase the band's technical prowess and musical prowess.

From the opening track, "Within the Dead Horizon," it is clear that Inferi has not held back on this album. The band's signature blend of blistering guitar riffs, intricate drumming, and soaring melodies is on full display. The album's production is top-notch, with each instrument given the space to shine.

The album's title track, "The Awakening Of The Black Hordes," is a standout. The song begins with a haunting piano melody before the guitars kick in, and the song explodes into a frenzied assault of technical death metal. The track showcases the band's ability to seamlessly blend melody and brutality.

Another highlight of the album is the track, "Through the Depths," which features guest vocals from Trevor Strnad of The Black Dahlia Murder. Strnad's vocals add another layer of intensity to an already intense track.
