Where most bands are content revelling in the sound of the glory days of early 90s death metal, German band Typhonian have not only beautifully reimagined it with blackened elements laced with the classic Swedish Finnish melodies, they are also attempting to take that sound ahead in the most logical manner. Their approach being reminiscent of Edge of Sanity and their 40-minute masterwork Crimson , Typhonian are going a step further, adding more progressive and atmospheric elements, which become perceptible especially towards the end of the album, ultimately culminating in a near 20-minute epic closer. It s a phenomenal journey of the music that s evidently rooted in the old school death metal sound metamorphosing gradually and finally taking on a gleaming, breathtaking form and ascending. They have broken the shackles that have held back the style for a couple of decades by encompassing various influences organically and forging a cohesive sound that has dominance over them all. With the visionary The Gate of the Veiled Beyond release, Typhonian have more than just outdone themselves; they have surpassed expectations for the style as a whole.

For fans of: Edge of Sanity, Unanimated, Necrophobic, Dismember, Dan Swano, Desultory, Unleashed, Evocation
