RiffThrovver Seeing Antichrist touring for this album was like what I'd imagine seeing Slayer in 1985 would be like. Powerful, evil thrash the way it's meant to be done, solidifying Antichrist as one of the best currently playing this style of aggressive malevolent speed. Sinful Birth is packed with enough memorable riffs to last an entire career and I can't wait to see what debaucheries they conjure next. Favorite track: The Black Pharaoh.

about

It's been a long time comin', but after six long years, the follow-up to 2011's landmark debut LP, 'Forbidden World,' is finally here! Electric Assault Records presented a taste of what would become 'Sinful Birth' with the 2013 single "Burned Beyond Recognition," which saw the Swedish thrash metal militia delve deeper into Hell, on a trajectory not unlike Slayer's between 1983 and 1985. 'Sinful Birth' is truly the band's 'Hell Awaits,' perfectly mixing undeniably sinister riffs at breakneck speeds (and there's no shortage of them here) with maniacal brilliance, yet the band's signature use and understanding of melody has in no way been lost and continues to set them apart from—and above—the rest. This is the new wave of thrash metal we've all been waiting for, the second coming of the Antichrist!

Pretty much the best Black/Speed Metal I've listened to since I learned about Evil Invaders and Vulture. Everything you'd love to be reminded of about this musical era is there. The influences are what you'd expect too: Motörhead, Venom, Bathory, early Slayer, Celtic Frost; aggressive vocals, tortured guitar solos, pounding drums; everything is fast, clear and still a little grimy, but without reverb cranked up to the max. Amazing band, amazing album. Odiumediae

If Elric had a soundtrack it would be this. It's everything you want from a epic metal album. Like a hot poker in the eye, but in a good way. Scott Malthouse

never been a big death metal fan but this is actually super accessible for the genre, has fun concepts, and personally i'm always a fan of albums with short tracklists and huge runtimes (for individual songs) Great time, good jumping on point for newbies too. alienasu
