Lay Down Rotten – Gospel Of The Wretched


On album number five, the guys in Lay Down Rotten chose for a more melodic route compared to their earlier work. And while it still isn’t an earthshattering release, this is an example of Germans on the move. Not to Poland this time, but on to more recognition.

With every release they become a little more subtle and a little more melodic but don’t go around calling this radio-friendly material just yet. The title track and “Altering The Whore” are prime examples of solid death metal you can bang your head to like crazy.

Overall “Gospel Of The Wretched” is a good example of a band slowly but surely evolving into an evermore finely tuned machine not unlike Kataklysm or Amon Amarth.
Score: 6 out of 10
