Domination Through Impurity – Essence Of Brutality

I have an addiction to CD’s. I will admit it. I love them! The case, the booklet, the back inlay card and even the smell of a new one freshly opened. Not to mention, they come with music on them too.
Sometimes I’ll even buy one based on the band name or the album cover. This CD falls into that category. I bought it based on the band name.

Here is the debut release from Domination Through Impurity. It features Joe Payne (Lust of Decay) on guitar/vocals, Jordan Varela (Lividity) on drums and Dan Royer (Scapegoat) on bass.

I hadn’t even heard of Domination Through Impurity before I got this CD, but with a name like that, I was doomed from the start.

This is technical death metal in the vein of Cannibal Corpse and Vile with a Necrophagist influence as well.

Some parts of it are awesome. Namely the guitar, vocals and the general song structure. Though it is a bit rough around the edges. The drum rolls and fills are mechanical sounding.

All in all this is a great debut realease. It has all the stuff I like. It changes tempo, has well executed guitar riffs and the vocals are cool.

I have always described my perfect vision of death metal by saying I want the tempo to go fast, faster, fastest, slow, slower, slowest, then mix it all up again. You get the idea! This CD does just that. Alot of tempo changes, blast beats and growling vocals!

Though this is nothing groundbreaking it is definitely worth picking up a copy. If you like the aforementioned bands, than DTI is sure to start a fire in your britches!
