The Gallows - Gallows - COMPACT DISCS [CD]

2014 , the third album from this band led by Dutch Avant-Metal madman Mories. On PLAGUE BEASTS, Mories delivers a ferocious affront to Black Metal form and structure, combining his otherworldly strain of sweeping Symphonic Black Metal with bursts of intense electronic chaos, waves of nebulous synthesizer and spastic rhythmic violence that, at times, feels more like something you'd hear off of a Planet Mu 12'. More than anything else from Mories, this stuff is closest in spirit to the malevolent necro-industrial and fractured drug-fueled machine-ecstasies of bands like Aborym, Blacklodge, Dodheimsgard, Mysticum, and Abigor. But as with anything that this guy is involved with, PLAGUE BEASTS seethes with a deliriously demonic atmosphere entirely it's own.

The hardcore band that made huge press waves after forming in 2005 in their homeland of the UK and are now based all over the world had an evolutionary overhaul on their self-titled full-length in 2012 with new vocalist Wade MacNeil. But that was just the beginning. The band's fourth full-length overall, Desolation Sounds continues their journey into weirder, esoteric territory that stretches the genre's boundaries and yet retains mammoth rock power.
