Brings to mind the bands like Entombed/Dismember and even the mighty Bolt thrower in places.. Really impressive.

[@-Tiques-]

sound engineer of the fucking year....you can actually hear the different notes (unlike some similar bands). No knock to them, this is just a masterpiece.

[@Dems-fk8sh]

Damn yes !!

[@jonduff3311]

it was mixed by Kurt Ballou, the sound engineer of many years..!

[@propanekid686]

I really appreciate you posting this album Relapse Records. I may have never known about this band otherwise.

[@joeyoksh]

Same here. Relapse is such a great label for stuff like this

[@danbougourd2525]

Pandora, pig destroyer radio for me.

[@allencantation]

These dudes kick so much ass! We need more heavy mid-tempo metalheads.

[@MetalLife]

Fucking love the fat death metal Tone from records like this and bloodbath's the fanthomless Mastery

[@martinrodriguez2466]

Malevolent Creation also, some récords.

[@JackieNihil]

I'm Swedish and I always loved the Stockholm death metal sound the best. Finally the Americans have brought it back to us.

[@thychaos]

the Americans brought it back?...it never went away, and there are plenty of bands in Europe doing it, what are you talking about.

[@eSchlumpberger]

what Jackie is saying is that they are tired of the cookie cutter sound out of sweeden and are happy that old school brutal shit like this is still being made. very common here in america just not as popular as some genre. so its harder to find in other countries that have tried to my some kind of hybrid shit. personally i like black tongue more than this but this is still good tunes. these guys remind me of a slightly different version of bolt thrower. i miss those guys.

[@thychaos]

hes tired of the cookie cutter sound so hes glad that bands like this are doing the same thing the old school swedeath bands were doing (which makes them cookie cutter)? makes a lot of sense.

[@eSchlumpberger]

mm i stand corrected. it is ok to be wrong. ty.

[@ericwilliams7374]

Good grief guys!!! Just enjoy the music and don't be dicks to one another!!!

[@duanedrummond2685]

I got to hang and talk with one of those dudes when they were on tour with Cannibal Corpse. Truly a kind and thoughtful young man. Fuck yeah!

[@shanemyers7654]

Such an unexpected rare gem of an album!! Literally takes me back to the mid 00's in high school listening to old school Swedish death metal and black metal... Simpler times

[@Emily-uy6cx]

One of the most beautiful album arts I've ever seen

[@joeyoksh]

I like it a lot, too. Paolo Girardi does a lot of cool stuff too for bands like Power Trip and Bell Witch

[@thomasedwardlawrence9775]

@@joeyoksh I knew I recognized the artstyle from somehwere

[@DizzyDez613]

Funny how I’ve never listened to this before considering how much I enjoy their newer few albums. I’m loving the “Wolverine Blues” style guitar tone.

[@Sgath393]

Gatekeeper, Cruciamentum and Chthe'ilist are providing great old school influenced yet modern death metal with riffs and loads of feeling

[@jacobdacosta7685]

I'd say "new" rather than "modern." When I hear "modern" I think of crap like Necrophagist, Soilwork, Origin, Decapitated, etc.

[@phatnana2379]

2020 and still bumping this album regularly!! When it comes to my death metal, black metal, hardcore, blackened hardcore or whatever other sub genres there are, I NEED bands to be ALL BALLS, and GateCreeper is one of those rare bands like Dragged Into Sunlight, Nails, and Pig Destroyer (first 2 full lengths especially) that take "ALL BALLS" to a new level!! Respect due!

Dragged into Sunlight is NASTY

[@trevorjacobs1282]

[@phatnana2379]

​@@austinsteed1581 for real! they were everything i was looking for in a band when i first found them!! In my opinion, there is literally nothing to complain about on their first 2 full lengths lol! Just wish they released more stuff!!

[@anthonycardott3541]

exactly, metal bands need to be STANDING ON IT, not dragging their fashion getup behind the beat. just found this record, pretty cool. pro tip, youtube people: do not put "metal 2021" into the search bar, it goes haywire...

[@vincenttwitchell325]

Saw these guys last night in SLC at the Urban Lounge with Exhumed, Necrot and Judiciary. It was such a good show.

[@tiestovanbuurenfold]

Went to that same tour in October. It was indeed excellent.

Never heard anything from Gatecreeper before. I'm digging it! Thanks for the upload.

[@soullessSiIence]

They're a new band, of course you hadn't heard them.

[@joeyoksh]

They had a demo out before this, but yes, this is their first LP

[@Iareachild]

[@SocialGore]

Kurt Ballou makes brutal sounds.

[@poopacapinyapants1797]

This isn't death metal. It's entombed-core/hm2-core.

First time I heard them (which was yesterday), I immediately thought Dismember/Grave, close enough :)

Thank-fucking-Cthulhu. Less guitar wankery and more actual riffs that make me want to go into full tard mode.

wonderful entombeb and boltthrower

[@karrazaki89]

Does somebody know if the guys in Gatecreeper played in Skinfather? The riff writing style is very similar (although in general is very similar to all the Stockholm bands from the 90´s)

[@soullessSiIence]

Death metal is copy/paste music. Why would you even ask. In art, originality is non existent. You just alter the order of the factors, but the pieces are the same (only 13 sounds in occidental music! Just think about that)

[@joeyoksh]

When in doubt, check Metal Archives
