Review: Burned in Effigy – Rex Mortem
A young band to watch, debuting with well-balanced melodeath full of technical and neoclassical elements

This 3-piece’s sophomore effort might be the most memorable anti-memorable dissodeath I’ve heard all year.
Deliciously proggy techdeath with palpable Cynic influences.
Raw atmospheric black metal with a ton of heart, enthralling melodies, and a unique spin on the genre.
This is an oppressive, murky slab of acerbic and ritualistic black metal. The vocal layers are dense and haunting, combining harshes and uncomfortable cleans into walls of throat-rending expression, complementing the dynamic chaos of these focused and compellingly unique compositions
Fantastically intricate blackened death metal with classic energy but bass-heavy and dissodeath-inspired chops.
Perfection without pretention, this is fucking superb! Scratching my O’Brother itch, but so so much more – huge dynamics and post-hardcore emotions collide with impeccable songwriting sensibilities in a compelling reflection on the destruction humanity has wrought on nature.
Lose yourself in this dynamic, progressive, sax-filled technical death metal epic.
A mixed bag of the most furious metallic hardcore this side of End… alongside a bunch of immersive psychedelic filler.
