Sarmat – R2-28 Review: An extreme (black death) Metal band from Poland. On March 19th, 2021, Sarmat released their independent debut studio album, RS-28, which includes eight ferocious nuclear assault songs, that would gratify fans of Behemoth, Hate (Poland), and Panzerchrist from Denmark.

Sarmat – R2-28 Review opens and discusses the FIRST SIN: THE STRINGS/KEYS, which comprise gargantuan technically/frenzied guitar parts…

Let’s talk about the SECOND SIN: THE VOCALS, which involves monstrously grunting death growls

Moving on to the THIRD SIN: THE PERCUSSIONS, which delves into the vast world of full-throttle rhythmic aural battering of the drums & relentless blast beats

In our following discussion about the band’s musical work, we will focus on the FOURTH SIN, the overall DISCUSSION of the album. Immediately, as the listener presses that play button, one is welcomed to the opening track, COLDGRINDER, which welcomes the listener with the sound of ballistic instrumentation and inhuman vocals,

As one continues their journey with the second piece EVILUTION and the six remaining pieces, where RS-28 takes the listener on this musical journey concept, which is based on “The Weapon of Ultimate Destruction.”

RS-28 creates this perfect nuclear and ferocious assault that provides and delivers the listener’s ears with a solid, relentless, and well-executed fruit of art devilmanship that grinds black metal and death metal together. Thus creating this dark, aggressive/brutal, gripping, dynamic, powerful, and heavy-pounding of extreme metal.

Experience the explosive power of SARMAT, a ferocious nuclear assault that will leave you breathless and wanting more. Its diverse musical spectrum combines technically frenzied guitar parts, catchy melodies and harmonies, and rhythmic passages that will have you tapping your feet and nodding your head. ŁUKASZ‘s monstrous vocals and KRZYSZTOF‘s drumming, complete with fast blast beats, will blow you away. And don’t forget the short moments of chilling ambient keys and extreme bass riffage that add a doom and gloom of apocalyptic feel.

RS-28 is a fruit of art and a well-delivered debut, with clean production and eight equally solid, strongly composed songs. It has an ear-to-ear (meaningful songs/album title) lyrical theme on destruction, the military industry, and human fears and obsessions.

Did you know that the album title was inspired by the Russian hypersonic missile, which is nicknamed “SATAN-2”? It’s a fascinating fact that adds an extra layer of intrigue to the album’s name.

RS-28 is an entertaining, excellent, fresh black death fruit of art and ideal for any black death/extreme metal fan.

I wanted to share our thoughts and MEMORABILIA on the FIFTH SIN. The entire ambience, including the darkened atmosphere, the intense death metal, the intricate instrumentation, and the powerful vocals, all contribute to the overall experience.

Let’s discuss the ARTWORK of the SIXTH SIN. The artwork cover is strong, dark, and meaningful. It captures the listener’s attention and conveys a message.

Finally, the review will close with the last sin, the SEVENTH SIN, the DISRELISH. Since there is/With nothing to disrelish within the musical world of SARMAT. This concludes the Sarmat – R2-28 Review.
