Athenaeum Of Sin Reviews

As soon as the listener presses the play button, the opening piece, Intro, greets the listener with an acoustic introduction, building up the mood and atmosphere of what’s to come.

The listener continues their journey with the second piece, Body Decomposition Engineering, and the remaining seven pieces. It is a dark, brutal death metal soundtrack to a collapsing universe full of hatred and contempt for the lies of humanity and religion.

As the listener delves deeper into Attendite a Falsis Prohetis, they will uncover a unique and fascinating blend of brutal death metal and melodic sections in each track. This unexpected brutal fusion, veiled in a dark-blackened atmosphere, will captivate even the most discerning brutal and extreme metal fans, leaving them intrigued and excited for what’s to come.

Each of the nine songs, meticulously composed and spread across a thirty-minute playtime, offers a unique experience. The contributions of two guest vocalists further enhance the album’s depth. Female guest Amira Gaafar (Premonitions and Vephar) brings her balls to the wall, crushing brutal growls that will dismantle the listener’s soul into shreds on track three. At the same time, Pawl Cymerman (Symbolical) adds his crushing growls to track five. The guest guitarist, Jim Ross (Bandwhore and Nader Sadek), features on track seven, and track eight sees the addition of Dave Suzuki (Chruchburn), further enriching and bringing colour to the musical spectrum.

As I listen to Attendite a Falsis Prohetis, I do get this feeling: the darkest and most blackened atmosphere of the music is shattered by the melodic and rhythmic sections, somewhat lifting the music from the darkness for a brief moment, but this doesn’t last long; that dark and blackened atmosphere soon overcasts the music and the melodic and rhythmic sections.

Attendite, a Falsis Prohetis, is a forbidden fruit of art. Every element is executed flawlessly, from the lyrics to the intricate instrumentation and music composition, and the devilmanship within the music spectrum of Spirits Way.

The production quality is not just exceptional; it’s extraordinary, with a crystal-clear sound that brings every melody, note, brute force and beat to life.
It is the framework of the production and music, keeping the atmosphere of the production dark and gritty with a rich, immersive sonic soundtrack.
While many brutal death metal bands stick to a straightforward, brutal sound, Spirits Way dares to be different. They have broken the norm and ventured into uncharted territory, experimenting with their sound and adding complex instructions and other elements. This bold and unique approach features brutal compositions and devilmanship, killer melodic/rhythm sections, heavy breakdowns, and a dark, blackened atmosphere that veils the music.
