Krisiun is not a band that puts a lot of emphasis on experimenting or on trying to achieve a radically original sound. Instead, they just keep on honing their attack, focusing on making their music even faster and heavier (to the narrow extent that that is possible). Conquerors of Armageddon is their third official album, and it is basically just a bigger and (arguably) better version of what you hear on their first two: Morbid Angel-influenced death metal that overflows with blasting drumbeats,   [ read more ]

Krisiun's Southern Storm dawns upon us and is destined to set ablaze the entire extreme metal scene with untamed fury and deadly precision! Integrity, brutality and an undying fervor for the uncompromising and unrelenting art of pure f**king death metal is what has kept the Brazilian three-piece going for more than 15 years. With their seventh studio album, Southern Storm, the hyper-speed brothers prove once again that they are as unstoppable, violent and dedicated to their darkened craft as e   [ read more ]

Krisiun's second album of obsessively fast extreme death metal offers everything listeners have come to expect from the band: warp-speed drumming, crazed guitar solos, guttural vocals, and relentlessly heavy riffs. Compared to their previous album, Black Force Domain, the production here is better, and there is a little bit more variety in the material (relatively speaking) -- "March of the Black Hordes," an instrumental, actually does follow a marching rhythm for about half of its duration, off   [ read more ]

With their fourth album, Brazil's Krisiun offers up more of their patented high-speed death metal brutality. The insanely fast drumming, technically demanding guitar riffs, and meltdown-evoking solos are still in full force, and if anything, the band has even managed to up the overall extremity level with this album, at least in terms of their playing. Especially notable are the two instrumentals, "Serpents Spectres," with its demonically possessed neo-classical-meets-death metal guitar shred   [ read more ]

This Brazilian trio's official full-length debut, Black Force Domain came out in 1995, at a time when the first wave of death metal was in the midst of a lull, both popularly and creatively. While not too widely heard at the time, Black Force did help place Krisiun among a new breed of bands -- Cryptopsy, Nile, and Angelcorpse, among them -- who would, over the next few years, breath some new life into the genre by pursuing new extremes in speed, physical stamina, and overall heaviness.   [ read more ]

After jumping out of the starting block with enviable speed and agility, and to widespread critical acclaim, Brazilian death metal titans Krisiun have suffered some tough setbacks at the hands of the same press as it gradually lost interest in the band's assault of almost unparalleled but increasingly one-dimensional fury. It was into this ongoing state of uncertainty that the band unleashed the stop-gap release Bloodshed -- a not-quite full-length album nevertheless offering eight new compositions   [ read more ]

Because Krisiun's most recent release, 2004's Bloodshed, had been a combination mini-album/EP reissue, 2006's Assassination constitutes the Brazilian death metal institution's first all-new album in nearly three years -- one of the longest gestation periods afforded by their obsessively workaholic habits. And, whether it served to regenerate the band's creative juices, or, more likely, simply give their critics and fans some time to actually start missing them again, this break certainly enhance   [ read more ]
