Molder - Catastrophic Reconfiguration


Ok - this might be some of the best old school Death worship that I have heard in a long time. If you told me that the songs off of Molder's new album, Catastrophic Reconfiguration were long lost Leprosy era Death b sides I'd almost believe you. While Molder certainly do have a few modern fringes, it's the old school vibes that really help to make them such a special band. These guys execute on their classic sound with aplomb and it's hard not to have a blast as they go rip roaring through your imagination with rager after rager. 

 What's refreshing about this album is that Molder have worked hard to craft well written songs. There are big choruses, exciting climaxes and flashy solos that drive the whole thing forward. Rather than leaning into the contemporary death metal tendency to kind of beat you over the head with riffs and brutality, Molder pull back on the heaviness in order to unleash something that is crushing in its own right. This is death metal delivered on a different pace and in a different way from so many of the bands peers and the end result will leave you gasping for air.

Catastrophic Reconfiguration is the sound of a band unveiling endless and relentless crushing filth. It's death metal done right in the grand old style with plenty of moments to get you raising your fist and banging your head. If you like Death, then this is going to be your album. (Also puns, "Nothing Left To Ooze" is a god tier death metal song title.) Grab this thing when hits shelves in just under a month. It's a ripper.

  1. I want to appreciate and recommend Dr. Abiodun's Herbal Medicine as a good remedy for cold sores to anyone affected by this virus, my friend had a bad case of reoccurring cold sores on his lips and private area, we saw some testimony on how this herbalist cured other people, we decided to contact him and asked him for a solution for my friend. We talked and decided to place an order for his herbs to be delivered to our office in Houston . He used the herbal medicine as instructed by the doctor, its been 2months now without any symptoms. I strongly recommend him to any one out here looking for a real help with cold sores. Contacts: WhatsApp +2348148798783 or abiodunherbalcenter@gmail.com
