Death Metal is going through a renaissance in this new century, taking elements from Black Metal, Folk, and other genres. Of course Death Metal’s trademark sound with its typical brutality, technicality and blasphemic concept is still present, yet “Deciphering the Soul” delivers all those elements wrapped inside a very strong and modern sounding album, with TOP NOTCH production, placing Council of the Fallen way ahead of the Death Metal pack ! To top it all off, the record was produced by Extreme music legend Eric Rutan (Morbid Angel / Hate Eternal / Ripping Corpse) and also features Tim Yeung (ex-Hate Eternal) on drums!
