CoC : Blood of Christ - The Lonely Flowers of Autumn : Review

Blood of Christ - _The Lonely Flowers of Autumn_
by: Adam Wasylyk (5 out of 5)

In the fine tradition of other Canadian death metal bands such as Kataklysm and Cryptopsy, Blood of Christ, with this professionally laid-out four-song demo (with songs "Autumn's Twilight", "In the Distance", "Moonshroud... the Cresent Glow" and "As the Roses Wither"), demonstrate they have the talent to continue successfully in their footsteps. Combining death, black and doom (along with intelligent lyrics), Blood of Christ deliver a rich, unique sound through great production and talented playing. Acoustic and organ passages accentuate the music nicely. This will satisfy many, as there are some blast beats along with nice melodic parts. A very impressive release to say the least. With not only great music but with great layout, this is about as good as demos can get.
