This fifth album from New Zealand's Ulcerate is the death metal band's most cohesive and powerful release to date, a flawless continuation of the group's signature sonic philosophy. Shrines of Paralysis spans eight tracks of singular death metal, incorporating a wider range of styles and ideas than ever before. Influences both within and beyond metal abound: organic, inventive phrasings and novel compositional techniques round out a thundering package of death, doom and black metal stylings. As is characteristic of the band, Shrines of Paralysis is about much more than just the music. The production, themes and atmosphere all shape Ulcerate's vision and help guide the way through a highly evocative palette of dark and light passages, subtly dramatic rhythmic manipulation and unparalleled technical heaviness.
