Album review: Nunslaughter - Red Is The Color of Ripping Death (2021)

Nunslaughter – Red Is The Color of Ripping Death

USA

Hells Headbangers

Cleveland’s most evil miscreants Nunslaughter return with a brand new full-length, entitled “Red Is The Color of Ripping Death,
” which will be released by Hells Headbangers on CD and tape on August 27th while the vinyl version will follow later.

The new album from the devil metal crew is everything you can expect from a Nunslaughter release and more. It is easily one of their best albums yet, featuring 2 new members since the passing of their former drummer, Jim Konya. In fact, Red Is The Colour of Ripping Death” seems to pay tribute to the aforementioned legend.

From the get-go, there is no shortage of ferocity, as the listener is perpetually molested with an array of savage riffs, and venom-spitting vocals courtesy of Don of the Dead. There is a slight Swedish axetone radiating from the guitars, but not in an overly dominating way. The result is auspicious, as the riffs are sharp and cohesive, coupled with acute and energetic drumming and thunderous bass lines. This is definitely one of Nunslaughter’s heaviest outputs yet. The album contains 14 tracks of unholy death metal with hardcore punk influences. It must be noted that some of these songs were unfinished recordings that Jim and founding frontman Don of the Dead wrote years ago and are now revitalized with the new line-up rendering it a fresh morbid stench. The production is very good and gives a lot of prominence to the guitars and bass. The heavy low-end in particular gives the whole thing an eminently menacing edge.

No Christian shall be spared the wrath of Nunslaughter’s latest opusas Red Is The Color of Ripping Death” sounds invigorated with hate, as well as darker and angrier than before! (HT)
