Dread Sovereign Wage ‘Alchemical Warfare’

Dublin’s premier doom/sludge outfit DREAD SOVEREIGN return with a killer platter of rancid rock and despairing doom!
Opening with squeals of necrotic phase and samples, ‘Alchemical Warfare’ (2021 - Metal Blade Records) plunges straight into the murky fathoms of subterranean riffage with “She Wolves of the Savage Season” which then propels itself into a full-on, sludged-up belter.
Slowing the pace, “The Great Beast We Serve” blends melodic doom with an old-school NWOBHM riff reminiscent of Rifflord. The stand-out track for me is “Nature Is The Devil’s Church.”
Looming in quietly with atmospheres, it quickly transforms into a blistering blackened sludge tempo, twisting through tempo changes, tribal drum beats and feral guitar licks. “Her Master’s Voice” creaks and groans under gargantuan weighted riffs and narcoleptic rhythm, before “Devil’s Bane” cranks up the speedo and puts the pedal down creating a Thrash/Death chugging classic.
“Ruin Upon the Temple Mount” again slows to a vile trudge; atonal guitars roaming and penetrating the mire. Closer “You Don’t Move Me (I Don’t Give a Fuck)” is another death/sludge crossover, frantic and hammering in it’s pace and delivery.
Dread Sovereign have delivered a well-crafted album of truly enjoyable sludge-doom, and the Sovereign reigns supreme once more.
