OS
Stationes Viae Mortis
(Morbid Chapel Records)
33:14min

“Stationes Viae Mortis” is the first full-length by the Hungarian Death Metal band OS. The band self released this and the excellent Morbid Chapel Records has picked this beauty up to be pressed onto a CD. The CD comes with a 6 page folded booklet and is limited to 500 copies, jewel case edition. OS seems to be on a mission here, they’re preaching the virtues and gifts of death in the most sombre way possible. OS drowns you into the deepest of the swamps while the delivery leaves you gasping for air. The band manages to translate their inner turmoil quite well and present it as a monolith of sonic assault. Relying on the ancient and the archaic approach to Death Metal, OS surely manages to impress with the overall writing and the musicianship. However, the band clearly has potential to further drown out any white light and create a suffocating atmosphere that will truly manage to hold the burden. The vocals pay tribute to AUTOPSY and the rhythm sticks to a standard 90s European approach. On the whole, I’d say this is just the beginning and I am confident OS will surely manage to put together a slab of utter darkness coupled with chaos. For now “Stationes Viae Mortis” does the job of passing the message out in the open. More info at: https://osdeathworship.bandcamp.com, www.facebook.com/morbidchapelrecords
