From the Cave to the Grave

Werewolves with their third full-length album, which keeps up the searing pace of the first two albums, with a mix of black and death metal and unprecedented aggression that is coalescing into a style of its own. Opener ‘Self-Help Book Burning’ kicks the door in Hate Eternal-style before deforming into a blackened ending worthy of Marduk. It’s followed by stadium crowd-pleaser ‘We Are Better Than You’, blaster ‘All the Better to Eat You With’, and social credit score-destroyer ‘Crushing Heaven’s Mandate’. ‘Harvest of the Skulls’ is an ode to the horror of genocide and the rest of the album blasts through to closing threat ‘Watch Your Mouth’, leaving you to enjoy your ringing ears and mild trauma.
