Denmark's Anti Ritual have returned with a new recording which shows the music moving away from the blackened sludge metal style of previous releases and goes for a mixture of hardcore, crust and d beat and this is a review of their self released 2025 ep "*0 Years".
A very hard and heavy sound starts off the ep before going into more of a heavier hardcore style. D beats are also utilized quite a bit throughout the recording while the vocals are mostly angry sounding crust style screams along with the riffs also adding in a great amount of melody and all of the musical instruments also have a very powerful sound to them.
Clean playing can also be heard briefly while most of the ep sticks to either a slow or mid tempo direction. Mist of the music is heavily rooted in the modern era along with the guitar leads bringing in a chaotic style when they are utilized, growls are also utilized at times..
On this recording Anti Ritual move way from the black, sludge, post metal and grindcore elements of previous releases and goes for more of a mixture of crust, hardcore and d beat. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics cover anti fascism themes.
In my opinion this is another great sounding recording from Anti Ritual and if you are a fan of hardcore, crust and d beat, you should check out this ep. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "80 Years" and "Days Of War, Night of Love". 8 out of 10.
