 | Description: | DYING VICTIMS PRODUCTIONS, in conspiracy with Unspeakable Axe Records, is proud to
present the highly anticipated third album of Chile??s HELLISH, The Dance of the Four
Elemental Serpents. DYING VICTIMS will handle the vinyl LP version while Unspeakable Axe
will handle the CD version.
Since their formation in 2010, HELLISH have become a prolific force on the blackened thrash
scene. With a discography to date totaling two albums, three EPs, four demos, a couple
compilations, a split, and a single, this Chilean quartet have been nothing but dedicated to
their evil cause over the past decade-plus. During that cursed year of 2020, longtime
vocalist/bassist Necromancer departed the band, but in came Christopher Aravena as his
replacement, and HELLISH sounded more invigorated than ever on last year??s The Vermis
Mysteriis EP.
With that bolstered lineup in place, HELLISH return to the full-length front with The Dance
of the Four Elemental Serpents. The title alone should speak toward the band??s elevation
above the cliché aspects of idiomatic blackthrash; while their grounding in the Teutonic ??Big
Four? of Sodom, Kreator, and Destruction has never been in question, HELLISH have always
made subtle-yet-concerted strides to separate themselves from mere worship, and The
Dance of the Four Elemental Serpents proves this beyond a shadow of a doubt. For one, the
guitars of Francisco Sanhueza and Javier Salgado wind and wend with wild abandon,
keeping the riff trajectory aggressive yet creative, twisting and turning with a diabolism that
reaches a fever pitch with well-timed (and quite literally explosive) solos. For another,
Aravena??s bass goes in busier directions than just following the guitarists?? riffing; hulking and
upfront, his chops match those of the six-stringers, and guitarist-turned-drummer Christian
León??s tasteful touches on the kit flesh out that momentum with fury and finesse.
Altogether, HELLISH give a masterclass in blackened thrash songwriting that??s far more
inventive and interesting than ??blackthrash,? and The Dance of the Four Elemental Serpents
becomes a surprisingly epic spin during its deceptive eight-song/33-minute runtime.
Dizzying and diabolical, HELLISH hereby raise the bar considerably with The Dance of the
Four Elemental Serpents. - .. ELEMENTAL SERPENTSSince their formation in 2010, Hellish have become a prolific force on the blackened thrash scene.
