Execution of the Priest Total time: 27:19 Review: I think this is the first Estonian band I have the chance to review since 2001 when I did an alternative-hardcore band from there. Nihilistikrypt is a new name for the European metal scene, but after this debut I can tell they have huge potential and I'm sure they'll have a powerful word on the East European scene soon if they'll keep it this way. This album is 100% death metal with clear sound that permits you to discover all instrumental parts. The guys are pretty technical, but I'd say the music is more brutal and sombre than technical. All compositions seem to be done by Sorts and Uziel so I think we wouldn't be that far from truth if we'd say this is more a two-men project, but that's not the point. The band is a good promise, we'll have to wait and see if they'll improve and raise in quality, to attract more metallers' attention.
