Deicide

Tampa, FL-based death metal legends Deicide return with an utter vengeance on tenth studio album and Century Media debut To Hell With God. As the follow-up to their poorly received, lacklustre 2008 release, Till Death Do Us Part, the new album is a welcome step back in the right direction. To Hell With God demonstrates why Deicide have been one of the most prominent American death metal bands since the late '80s/early '90s. The album features the band's traditional barrage of vicious brutality and anti-Christian sentiments, but with much more technicality added to the mix, such as on "Witness of Death," which adheres to the current style of modern death metal. Guitarist Jack Owen delivers, as per usual, on To Hell With God, with thrashy riffs paired exceptionally well with incendiary solos ("Hang in Agony Until You're Dead"). Although a tad over-produced, To Hell With God is old school, blasphemous death metal with a much-needed modern twist.
