`: The moment one sees the album cover :'
`: of The Formulas of Death they should :'
`: already know that itÆs going to be :'
`: different than the Swedish quartetÆs :'
`: 2009 release, The Horror. And it is. :'
`: Although some fans that saw :'
`: Tribulation as part of an old school :'
`: Swedish death metal revival may be :'
`: disappointed by the artistic :'
`: changes, the album shows a :'
`: tremendous amount of technical and :'
`: creative growth when compared to its :'
`: predecessor. It is much less a pure :'
`: death metal album and borrows :'
`: influence heavily from black metal :'
`: and progressive. The black metal :'
`: influence really comes out in the :'
`: dark chord changes, occult :'
`: atmospherics, and aggressive tremolo :'
`: picked riffs. The second track, :'
`: ôWanderer in the Outer Darkness,ö is :'
`: a perfect example of this influence :'
`: at play. :'
`: :'
`: In addition to the darkness, the :'
`: album also has many up-tempo and :'
`: almost punk moments that are :'
`: incredibly catchy. Yet, at its heart :'
`: this is still Swedish death metal, :'
`: but its range of sounds is blown :'
`: wide open by the bandÆs creative :'
`: experimentation. When compared to :'
`: TribulationÆs previous album, the :'
`: thrash elements are also greatly :'
`: dialed back in favour of the new :'
`: black metal influence. In certain :'
`: respects, The Formulas of Death :'
`: calls to mind the Cobalt album Gin. :'
`: While Gin is without a doubt a much :'
`: darker and strictly a much more :'
`: black metal release, both albums :'
`: quite honestly have a similar :'
`: musical flair. This is due in part :'
`: to complex song structures that, :'
`: while quite progressive, donÆt ever :'
`: seem pretentious or too technical or :'
`: mathematical to be enjoyed in a :'
`: traditional sense. This is :'
`: absolutely an album with a number of :'
`: searing and well positioned leads :'
`: that you can bob your head to. :'
`: :'
`: The introduction of a number of :'
`: clean guitars on the album has :'
`: widely expanded the bandÆs musical :'
`: expression and atmospheric :'
`: possibilities. Vocally, Johannes :'
`: Andersson delivers a barking growl :'
`: that calls to mind Joel Grind of :'
`: Toxic Holocaust, or a rabid dog, in :'
`: both technique and tenacity. Song :'
`: tempo and style throughout the album :'
`: is quite varied all the while :'
`: maintaining an important aesthetic :'
`: cohesion that begs the album to be :'
`: experienced as a unified piece. For :'
`: example, the song ôSuspiriaö :'
`: features a groovy bass line and a :'
`: truly expansive vibe that is far :'
`: beyond traditional death metal fare, :'
`: and ôApparitions,ö the closing :'
`: track, is a thirteen minute nearly :'
`: psychedelic journey through the :'
`: mysticism of the occult that :'
`: predominates the album. In between :'
`: the two you have ôWhen the Sky is :'
`: Black with Devilsö which starts with :'
`: a haunting clean guitar intro before :'
`: kicking it up a notch into a catchy :'
`: death metal riff. :'
`: :'
`: Clocking in at almost seventy-six :'
`: minutes over eleven tracks, The :'
`: Formulas of Death is a grand and :'
`: monstrous affair. The running time :'
`: certainly ensures you get your :'
`: moneyÆs worth, but if youÆre looking :'
`: for something lean, or an album you :'
`: can spontaneously and easily enjoy :'
`: in its entirety, youÆll probably be :'
`: a bit disappointed. Likewise, if :'
`: youÆre looking for The Horror II, :'
`: you are just as likely to feel let :'
`: down. But those sounds are still :'
`: audible on this album. Additionally, :'
`: it is a tad meandering at times, but :'
`: I ultimately found this to be, for :'
`: the most part, an ingredient of a :'
`: very enjoyable journey. :'
