Gloria Morti - Kuebiko (2016)

Formed in Finland in 1999, the longstanding act Gloria Morti has been releasing a steady output of full-lengths since 2004 (after a series of demos in the preceding years). After a four year absence however, the band is back with their latest maelstrom of blackened death metal in the form of Kuebiko, their first release via the 16 year old Willowtip Records label. Fans of the band will know more or less what to expect, with plenty of abrasive riffs and blast beats, with an ominous growl that could be the stuff of nightmares. While Gloria Morti is certainly a very capable act, this new release sadly seems to be a little above average and not exactly a classic of the genre.
