Our Take

Everything old is new again with Mental Cruelty's re-issue of "Purgatorium" in 2022. This German deathcore band has been causing a stir in the metal community for years, and this album is no exception.

The opening track, "Ultima Hypocrita," sets the tone with its crushing riffs and guttural vocals. It's like being hit in the face with a sledgehammer, in the best possible way.

As the album progresses, it becomes clear that Mental Cruelty are masters of their craft. Tracks like "Kingdom of Rats" and "Lucid Genesis" showcase their technical prowess and ability to create a truly immersive listening experience.

But what really sets this re-issue apart is the remastering. The sound is clearer, the drums hit harder, and the overall production is top-notch. It's like hearing the album for the first time all over again.

In conclusion, Mental Cruelty's "Purgatorium" re-issue is a must-listen for any metal fan. It's brutal, it's technical, and it's everything you could want from a deathcore album. So put on your headphones, turn up the volume, and prepare to be blown away.

About the artist

Mental Cruelty

Mental Cruelty, hailing from Germany, are the epitome of modern extreme metal madness. This brutal deathcore band has been making waves in the underground scene with their relentless blend of bone-crushing breakdowns, blistering blast beats, and guttural vocals that could make even the most seasoned metalhead cower in fear. Led by the enigmatic frontman and founding member, Munir Mustafa, Mental Cruelty have built a reputation for their uncompromising sound and intense live performances that leave audiences in a state of shock and awe. With influences ranging from slam and deathcore to black metal and even classical music, the band's sonic palette is as diverse as it is devastating. Their latest album, "A Hill to Die Upon," is a savage onslaught of ferocious riffs, menacing atmospheres, and otherworldly technicality that showcases Mental Cruelty at the height of their powers. Tracks like "Planet of Misery" and "Ultima Hypocrita" feature some of the most punishing breakdowns and sinister melodies this side of the metal spectrum, while Mustafa's monstrous vocals bring an extra layer of menace to the proceedings. If you're a fan of heavy music that pushes boundaries and challenges conventions, look no further than Mental Cruelty. With their uncompromising approach to songwriting and their total disregard for genre limitations, this is a band that is not afraid to go to the darkest depths of the human psyche to create music that is as intense as it is unforgettable. Watch out for Mental Cruelty, because they are a force to be reckoned with in the world of extreme metal.
