Odem--Timeless Past Above cd{Moribund Records} Odem are a Russian death metal act that will release their second full-length Timeless Past Above through Moribund Rec.Containg six tracks of brutal death and some elements of black metal are used in a few songs.The guitars are played with heavy and some fast paced guitar patterns.The guitarist can write some very memorable passages even adding some progressive style guitar patterns to the music to give it a unique sound and style.The drumming is done with alot of skill and a mix of fast,chaotic drums and some slower,heavier drum patterns.The drumer does write some excellent drum passages that showcase both a heavier mid paced and some blasting drums. Vocals are deep death metal growls that are powerful and fit the bands musicial style perfectly.This is my first encounter with Odem but if you are looking for a band that creates a unique blend and style all their own then do yourself a favor and pick up a copy of Timeless Past Above today.
