Aghor are a band from Estonia that plays an old school form of death metal mixed with punk and this is a review of their 2014 album "Necrolivonica" which was released by Offense Records.
Powerful sounding bass guitars start off the album before mixing in heavy guitars and aggressive shouting vocals as well as adding in the heaviness of death metal and you can also hear traces of hardcore in their musical sound and the band also incorporates a good amount of melody into their musical sound.
Spoken word parts and horror movie samples are added into the music at times and in certain sections of the recording you can hear traces of crust and d beat in the rawer sections of the music and the band also brings in a mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts and a small amount of thrash metal influences.
Aghor take the early 90's death metal sound and mixes it with 80's hardcore punk and stays away from any types of growls or screams most death metal bands use and have a more punk/thrash style of vocals, the production is very dark and professional sounding and the lyrics cover dark themes.
In my opinion Aghor are a very great sounding mixture of old school death metal and punk and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should c heck out this band. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Sculpting Sanctum" "Torch All Idols" "Tyrant Obsession" and "Kingdom Of Flesh". 8 out of 10.
