Immoralist - Widow Review



Immoralist are a really nasty beatdown/downtempo deathcore band from Richmond, Virginia that released their first EP "Widow" in April 2013 through We Are Triumphant Records.

Starting with the album cover art and ending with the music itself, I really have to say that "Widow" is one of the best deathcpre releases of 2013 in my opinion. The artwork, a old woman (widow) that just stares at you with completly black eyes is really scary, evil and fits perfectly to the music. The intro called "145" starts with some spooky sfx and ambient sound, it's something like the silence before the storm, because the rest of the EP is indeed a storm of brutality and anger. Back to the intro; after about 30 seconds of confusing sfx, the guitars fade in and end in a really brutal breakdown that is a perfect introduction for the EP. 

The next song called "Deathspitter" is the best song on the album in my opinion. Only the fact that both James and Chris from King Conquer have a guest spot on the track should make you check out this epic EP. The guitars are tuned low, the music is slow and groovy and the breakdowns are bonecrushing. Everything what a fan of beatdown deathcore needs.

The rest of the EP continues in the same style, tight drumming, agressive and powerful vocals and good song structures. The band also has some really good lyrics and interesting lines. What you will hear is an EP by a really mature band that knows how they want to sound like and know what atmosphere they want to create in their music.

Personally I am a big deathcore/beatdown fan and I think that I know what good deathcore is, so I would really recommend this band or EP to every deathcore fan that likes the more brutal side of deathcore, no gay shit, only brutal chugging and riffing straight in your face! "Widow" was the first deathcore release this year that managed to melt my face off, so check them out, they're really worth a listen!
