Description
US progressive/technical death metal Xenosis have been at it for years, honing their craft with each album and showcasing a flair for experimentation too. On their fifth full-length album, "Hermetic Transmutation", they retain their core sound as they elaborate on both the progressive and technical aspects, even borrowing elements of brutal death metal and dissonant death metal. The influences are finely integrated into their ever throbbing, busy music, never seeming forced and instead adding variation to their intense sound. The music's persistent groove belies its highly intricate quality; there's so much happening while you're busy bobbing your head, tapping your feet, or rolling on the floor. Xenosis have created a delightfully engrossing album that is bound to confound, tantalize, and ultimately satiate fans of this kind of music.
