God Dethroned are a band from the Netherlands that has been featured before in this zine and on this recording played a very melodic and blackened form of death metal and this is a review of their 2022 album "The Christhunt" which was re-issued in 2022 by Vic Records.
A battle orientated intro starts off the album before going into a fast direction which also utilizes a great amount of tremolo picking and blast beats. Melodies are also added into some of the guitar riffing while death metal growls are also a very huge part of the recording and all of the musical instruments on the recording also have a very powerful sound to them.
Throughout the recording you can also hear a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts while the music also adds in a great amount of death metal elements. When guitar solos and leads are utilized they are done in more of an early 90's death metal style, when keyboards are utilized they also bring in the atmosphere of a classic horror movie soundtrack and some of the tracks are also very long and epic in length and the slower sections of t he songs also show an influence of doom metal.
On this recording God Dethroned went for more of an earlier style of blackened death metal. The production sounds very old school while the lyrics cover Satanism, Luciferianism, Occultism, Anti Christianity and Death themes.
In my opinion this was a very great sounding recording from God Dethroned and if you are a fan of this band, you should check out this re-issue. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Hordes Of Lucifer" "Necromagnon" and "God Dethroned". 8 out of 10.
