ARGHOSLENT
Galloping Through the Battle Ruins

Reissue 2022

Everyone else can pretty much give up right now. With Hornets of the Pogrom, the infamous Arghoslent have outstripped the competition to such a degree that it's almost unfair. Anyone who's heard these guys' prior two masterpieces, 1998's Galloping Through The Battle Ruins and 2002's Incorrigible Bigotry, already knows this band is capable of delivering some of the best death metal out there. But on Hornets of the Pogrom, Arghoslent step it up to a whole different level entirely, and I can honestly say that I'm floored by the results. If any album was ever worth a six year wait, this one is.
