ROGASH

2nd album from 2016 by German Death Metal band ROGASH and a powerful display of old-school extremity delivered with remarkable intensity and conviction. "Malevolence" arrived two years after the debut album "Supremacy Undone" and showcased a band refining its sound by successfully merging elements of American and Scandinavian Death Metal. Within the group's relatively short but impressive career, this release stands as the definitive statement of its musical identity.

Musically, ROGASH delivers a ferocious and dynamic form of Death Metal built around crushing riffs, varied tempos and an effective balance between speed and groove. The album successfully combines the chainsaw-edged aggression of Swedish Death Metal with the heavier and more direct approach of the American school, resulting in a collection of powerful and memorable songs. The production by Dan Swanö further enhances the material, providing clarity and impact while preserving the raw energy that defines the band's sound.
