Danish death metallers “Deus Otiosus” released their sophomore effort “Godless” under “Deepsend Records”. Stylistically, this album displays a strand of death/thrash heavy on “Slayer”/“Exodus”/“Sepultura” (early) style riffs with some slight modern death metal undertones. The eclectic death and thrash metal sound merges well with their harsh hate filled and aggressive style, delivering pretty heavy and headbangable moments to the album. The slowtomid tempo groove of songs like “New Dawn” and “Death Dance” show also “Deus Otiosus” clearly comfortable at the slower pace. The band is not out here to bewilder the listener with complex chaos, and the structure and catchiness of the tracks are well delivered. The production is excellent, everything is crisp and clear and the guitars sound good. In conclusion, “Godless” is a good release that will catch attention with its consistency.
