warchrist30 Plague Throat distinguishes themselves in a country that has only good death metal, as old school style champions. This album rips! Favorite track: The Human Paradox.

barlface Where some death metal bands fret over their defining feature, whether it be soloing, black metal flourish, or long winded breakdowns. Plaguethroats concern is on another aspect: How to kill the listener via headbanging decapitation. Each of the 10 songs are turbocharged to hell and back by the masterful blast beat breakdowns. All the while the singer roars, thrashing his guitar in inhuman ways. Nangsan, Malice, and Jerry have all outdone themselves here. I want more!!! Favorite track: Hour of Darkness.

nightweaver Plague Throat is quintessential listening for exciting, yet accessible Death Metal.
The focus is on intricate riffing and headwhirling grooves, and boy, do they do that well.
The restrained use of gorgeous lead flourishes and neck-killing breakdowns makes them all the more effective when they arrive, and Nangsan has one hell of a roar.

lust4metal good death metal, the track Ma Nga has a 'tribal' feel that will appeal to fans of Sepultura's 'Roots' album Favorite track: Ma Nga.

about

Indian death metal greats PLAGUE THROAT release their highly awaited full length debut after putting out a stunner in 'An Exordium to Contagion' EP. And if their single was anything go by, the band's sound is only getting more powerful and relevant by imbibing influences of both brutal and technical death metal while remaining rooted in the classic death metal style. These are ten unrelenting and supremely passionate songs that will have any metalhead banging his head in ridiculous fashion. Catchiness has always been a trait for this band but it's never at the expense of the heaviness. With a faultless production to boot, 'The Human Paradox' will become a death metal staple for old and new fans alike all around the world.
