4.0 excellent | Alabaster Jones | January 29th 16 | Hailing from Sweden, the quintet known as Dethrone is one exciting act, playing a very thrashy form of melodic death metal. And make no mistake, they don't play MELODIC death metal so much as they play melodic DEATH metal, if you get where I'm going with this. The end result is an album that, while not being entirely original, pretty much excels in all other aspects. The songwriting is fluid and organic, with thrashy riffs and drumming rhythms with the occasional melodic lead, tremolo riff and technical solo. The double-bass is blistering, and the bass guitar is audible and even sometimes gets a moment in the spotlight. The weak point would be the vocals, but even they are really solid, if a slight bit monotonous. The quality of the record remains very high throughout the runtime, and though there may be standout moments within tracks, no track really jumps out. This would normally be an issue, but with memorable moments within each track, it's pretty easy to follow. In short, a really great, energy-laden release from some still-young guys, who might still have their best up their sleeves.
