Ordo Caper from Costa Rica is one of those bands that deserve more attention, especially taking into account the quality of their music. The music presented on Ordo Caper’s debut full-length “Aphorism of Baneful Acts” is some decidedly crude and blasphemous black/death metal that sounds like some totally strange, yet interesting fusion between bands like Incantation, Bestial Warlust, and Sadistik Exekution. The band also experiments with “noise” elements rendering to the overall chaos. I think it’s safe to say that Ordo Caper isn’t just another war metal band, as there are definitely some characteristic elements in their sound, and this can be heard on every track. Even the way they play the riffs are totally unique. This whole release radiates total insanity redolent of bands like Sadistik Exekution. The band did do a split with Rok, so I guess they must’ve been influenced by them. They play with various tempos, as the instruments constantly interplay with each other. It’s a pity that most people would overlook such a killer release, because Ordo Caper is the real deal and their music has an incredible amount of depth to it. There’s a lot of weird and discordant riffs that borders on prog, all the while maintaining a degree of minimalism. All in all, this is a very cool release, and I’ll probably listen to it again later, considering that there’s still some details that haven’t fully sunk into my brain yet. Fans of the bands mentioned earlier should check this out. There's a reason Rok recommended these guys! (HT)
