Knelt Rote
ALTERITY NUCLEAR WAR NOW!
NOISE-GRIND POWERHOUSE SET UP CAMP AT THE SONIC PRECIPICE
Experiencing Knelt Rote’s broiling black/death-grind is akin to sticking your ears to a red-hot iron. With a foundation in noise/ power-electronics, this trio knows how to make it hurt. Their fourth album, Alterity, does just that, but it’s also their most dynamic downpour of filth yet. The scalding riffs are more discernible, the structures sharpened for maximum impact, and tracks such as Lineage And Dependence and Rumination are posed in such a way that for the first time Knelt Rote sound memorable while still on the verge of chaos. Brevity is also the key to the success of this aural annihilation, with the band destroying everything in their path in a no-second-wasted, 21minute sensory barrage. Alterity should summon the attention of fans of Full Of Hell or Revenge as much as those dedicated to Immolation or Anaal
Nathrakh.
