Voodoo Gods – The Divinity Of Blood

Featuring vocalist George “Corpsegrinder” Fisher, guitar virtuoso Viktor Smolski, bass titan Jean Baudin, drummer Alex Voodoo and guitar god Jacek Hiro, death metal supergroup Voodoo Gods is ready to unleash the inflamed sophomore album “The Divinity Of Blood” characterized by a striking technical approach and solid thrash/death metal roots. 

“Isa” goes straight to an aggressive assault that emphasizes the extreme metal dynamics with abrasive guitar riffs and cavernous growls while the fiery guitar leads are always ready to showcase prowess and sonic diversity. 

“Rise Of The Antichrist” tends to channel the classic vibes of thrash metal building monumental grooves as the tight rhythmic blasts demand increasing speed and amplify the essential role of the wicked bass lines.  

There is a mournful mood on “From Necromancy to Paraphilia” as guitars focus also on darkened melodic progressions besides the generous dosage of belligerent riffs while the elaborate acoustic phrases add delightful exotic nuances followed by extensive virtuoso style solo. 

The complex composition of “The Divinity Of Blood – From Darkness To Light” leads to sharp malevolent rhythmic patterns yet the slower tempo variations highlight a dramatic depth enhanced by the mysterious aura of the guitar phrases.  

“The Ritual Of Thorn” relies on colossal guitar driven grooves courtesy of the monolithic rhythmic section and the killer riffage that will successfully induce constant headbanging yet there is space for some fascinating somber melodic progressions and impeccable shredding. 

“The Absolute Necessity To Kill” offers loads of thrilling guitar leads that continue to showcase a superb musicianship and enrich the main savage rhythmic onslaught with intense shredding and stylish neoclassical variations. 

The strength of “The Divinity Of Blood” certainly comes from the talent of the musicians involved in Voodoo Gods so you can expect all kinds of massive hostile grooves and charismatic guitar work.
