SEBASTIEN COTE
Let's see...On the plus side: great musical ideas, great arrangements, lots of potential. On the downside: lyrics too cheesy, songs are lacking a bit of length: they always kind of fall short. There are great riffs, but the songs need more development. overall, very interesting: let's see what comes next. 7/10

What the hell, why are there legit emotions in my Death Metal? Excellent example of progressive death metal.
Favorite track: Day Of Reckoning.
Metallurgical Fire
Agonist is terrific, but the anemic drum production almost made me pass it up. I’m not sure why people want to neuter drum sound sometimes, but please stop. Otherwise everything is on point. The vocals really stand out.
Favorite track: Red Death.

Formed by members of Memoriam and Pemphigoid, As The World Dies are among UK’s most promising new bands. Gritty and spiteful, the music rampages mercilessly hearkening back to the era of Bolt Thrower, Grave and the like, even though As The World Dies have their own approach to it all. The music is even atmospheric at times, littered with unpredictable tempo changes, and it’s clear that they have their own method to the madness. Skulls get crushed either way, as they rally support from the genre’s greats - Karl Willets (Bolt Thrower), David Ingram (Benediction/Hellfrost And Fire), Kam Lee (Massacre) and many more. It’s a formidable lineup and victory is certain. Death triumphs over all. As The World Dies make sure of it. 'Agonist' is as powerful a debut as can be expected and fans of classic-sounding, UK-styled death metal will find a new favourite in this one.

Abyssus have created what's possible one of the best death metal albums in this style. They're imbibing the best elements of the classic bands and reinterpreting it without diluting the appeal. Ace. As The World Dies
Death metal legends return with easily the finest album of their career. They're taking the sound ahead in ways never done before, while remaining just as powerful. This is the future of OSDM. As The World Dies
This is Benediction's vocalist David Ingram's new band and it's every bit as crushing and satisfying as you can expect. It's a non-stop riff-fest from start to finish with some of the deadliest hooks! As The World Dies
