User Album Review
The Winds of Plague mentality is to continuously deliver heavy as hell song after song. And what the band does so well in this delivery is being able to keep the material fresh (primarily thanks to their blend of sounds and structure). This isn’t just all-out savagery, but a well-constructed flow of intensity that keeps on giving. “From Failure, Comes Clarity” casts a dark and symphonic sound that is backed by a powerful message in persevering and staying on one’s course in life. The instrumentation takes a step back from heavy beat downs, allowing the listener to take something new in. The title track takes this previous idea and steps further away from the earlier sound of the record. While the verse sections provide the traditional vocals from earlier tracks, the use of singing adds an extra layer that actually fits well into the work. This is because they never stay longer than they need to, entering and leaving in the right amount of time to add an extra kick to the presentation.
Winds of Plague could have easily just made a record that blasts away with straight forward heaviness and left it at that. Instead, they take their pure adrenaline and furious sound, and display it in a grand fashion. This is all thanks to strong structure and chemistry, for the band takes various blends of heavy instrumentation, and package them in different shades. Blood Of My Enemy is a terrific record that rips with fury and strength, always keeping the material fresh and entertaining. Score: 7/10
