dcdirkzwager A Mother's Curse was already pretty brilliant, but this album is a step up from that! Highly recommended!

Ippocalyptica Strychnos was already one of the most promising underground treats in the black-death metal scene, but Armageddon Patronage is such a meaningful leap over their debut that they should rightly start appearing on more people’s radars. The difference between what Strychnos is doing compared to the many other bands in this crowded area is simple to understand but hard to achieve: be more aggressive, intense, and dynamic without losing that cohesive sense of sonic storytelling. Mission accomplished! Favorite track: Choking Salvation.

necro À la Behemoth, en plus violent avec des titres plus accrocheurs, et des ambiances encore plus sombres !!! Favorite track: Armageddon Patronage.

about

Dark Descent Records proudly presents Armageddon Patronage, the second album from Copenhagen’s purveyors of ‘accursed death’ Strychnos.

Armageddon Patronage embodies the immense drive of a band operating at full throttle, refining their distinct blend of extreme metal bound to no god, master, or genre. Following a string of intense and blood-stained festival performances Strychnos is now the name on the underground’s lips. Propelled by this vast momentum, the band toiled tirelessly to record and release Armageddon Patronage less than two years after their debut.

“This release will showcase a natural continuation of what A Mother’s Curse began,” reflects bassist/vocalist Martin Leth Andersen. “The band seek to refine and push further key elements from the debut - in ways of both aggressiveness and the more atmospheric parts. This follow-up also showcases an array of new details like alternative instrumentation, vocal-variations, intros, outros, and a couple of noticeable guest appearances.”

Rare is the band within these realms that improves so exponentially with each new release. Do not miss the flight of Strychnos… for one may never know how long the underground can contain them.

Armageddon Patronage was recorded and mixed by Lasse Ballade at Copenhagen’s Ballade Studios and mastered by none other than Necromorbus’ infamous Tore Stjerna.

An outstanding Extreme doom death album, in the best tradition. The funerary atmosphere reminds of Evoken ('Centuries of ooze" bears striking similarities, for my delight). It is overall sharp, dark, hypnotic and unrelenting. One of those rare convincing new bands that hold proud the legacy of the biggest names. Bertrand Marchal

Like all the best death metal this is a bit unhinged and a lot of fun. The black metal elements add color without plodding and clear production gives the whole thing some extra heft. Miles Egan

Intense abyssal anthems of progressive blackened death/doom. Highly recommended. Also "Geryon (The Plummet)" is one of the best album closers of the year. Kris Faust
