THE CORRODING AGE OF WOUNDSGot this review from Poland’s Atmospheric Zine today, and when I am posting it, it comes up with weird letters. So I think you should get the printed zine instead. There’s a translator but it will only came out with a lot of somewhat mixed words. The thing is that ‘The Corroding Age of Wounds’ did get 5.5/6 and I think that sums it all up. Below were the Polish review and after that the English translation.

Atakuj?cy z Filipin KRATORNAS konsekwentnie kontynuuje batali? rozpocz?t? ponad dziesi?? lat temu i na debiutanckim d?ugograju ,,Over The Fourth Part Of The Earth”. Black metal grany przez ten projekt (tak, tak, twórc? jest jeden cz?owiek!) jest niepokorny, blu?nierczy, w?ciek?y, zwyrodnia?y… I o ile po??czenie szybko?ci i agresji z melodyk? oraz przej?ciami to jeszcze nic nadzwyczajnego, o tyle klimat p?yty ,,The Corroding Age Of Wounds” robi wra?enie i wci?ga. KRATORNAS jest jak machina wojenna, która przez do przodu i zostawia po sobie zgliszcza. Instrumenty s? jak karabiny i armaty, a kruk., tj. scream, unosi si? ponad tym wszystkim. Utwory maj? sprzyjaj?c? ku temu marszowo-industrialn? motoryk?. Jakby by?a to armia w marszu. Perkusja si? t?ucze, w powietrzu (aran?acjach) co? ?wiszczy. Jest g?sto, parno, czu? zaduch, opary. Cztery ostatnie kompozycje s? jeszcze lepsze ni? wcze?niejsze. S? zmienne i jest w nich wi?cej ,,smaczków”. KRATORNAS pot?guje wi?c emocje, walka staje si? bardziej krwawa i wkracza w moment krytyczny. Najlepszym na to przyk?adem niech b?dzie ,,Chaosblade”, z pokr?conym, zion?cym demonizmem wst?pem, po którym nast?puje rze?, zabójstwo poczynione narz?dziem zbrodni - black metalem. Za? fa?szuj?ca solówka w ?rodku, co mo?e symbolizowa?? Rozpacz, bo zgin?? dobry kompan, a mo?e nawet przywódca…? Bo po tym kanonada b?bnów zostaje zdwojona. Zreszt? zbli?ony niepokój budzi utwór ,,Interstellar Doom”. Jest podobnie skonstruowany, tyle ?e jazgotliwe zagrywki gitarowi nie s? osadzona w zwolnieniu, a dialoguj? z reszt? w umiarkowanym tempie, a pó?niej nast?puje krótkie, speedowe, niemal thrashowe solo. Chocia? tego typu patentów (w stylu MORBID ANGEL) jest na ,,The Corroding Age Of Wounds” du?o wi?cej. Niestety za pewien niedostatek mo?na uzna? staromodne, czyli niewyra?ne brzmienie tego albumu. Co prawda pasuje ono do war black metalu i dobrze odzwierciedla bitewny chaos, ale… jest jak kurz spowijaj?cy zw?oki wojowników. Czasami nic nie wida? i niewiele s?ycha?… Jakby jednak nie by?o, klimat muzyki KRATORNAS jest totalny. No, musi si? przypomina? MARDUK (nomen omen ok?adk? tego? wydawnictwa wymalowa? kole? pracuj?cy ze Szwedami) i jeszcze chamskim SADISTIK EXEKUTION czy latynoskim gor?cem KRISIUN, ale mimo tego Bruno Zamora ma swój w?asny ?wiat, po którym chadza ?mier? i zniszczenie. Po prostu killer! Filipi?czyk to killer! ?aden Czarek Pazura! 5.5/6 [Kasia]
