Emerging from the depths of Florida in early 2019, Hexorcist is a force to be reckoned with, featuring members from esteemed acts such as Gnosis and Devastator. Their brand of death metal is unapologetically old-school, bordering on what could be classified as "proto-death metal." Their approach to the genre is fierce and unrelenting, reminiscent of the mid-to-late '80s when extreme music was still in its rawest form, and boundaries were meant to be blurred by those who dwelled in the underground.
Hexorcist's debut album, Evil Reaping Death, lives up to its name in every sense. It is a vile and unyielding offering, devoid of any modern or trendy influences. The album is a relentless onslaught, steeped in ancient rituals, with blistering leads cutting through the air and executed with the precision that only true diehards can achieve.
In their musical journey, Hexorcist remains steadfast in their devotion to the roots of death metal. They pay homage to the likes of Morbid Angel, Necrovore, Sarcofago, Death, Incubus, Possessed, Vital Remains, Slayer, and Peru's Mortem, without attempting to modernize or alter these sacred influences. Evil Reaping Death is a testament to their commitment to upholding the traditions of the genre.
For those who crave unadulterated death metal, Evil Reaping Death delivers exactly that. It is an album crafted for the true death metal aficionados, offering a relentless, 666% pure, and maniacal experience that is exclusive to the most devout followers of the genre.
