about
WYRD, the third full-length album by Crawling Chaos, is an anthology-based work built around a series of archetypes tied to the concept of destiny, fate, and becoming. In the Northern European culture these ideas are encapsulated in the term wyrd, as opposed to notions of free will and self-determination.
The main theme is expanded and explored across the album’s ten tracks following a narrative thread which unites some of the most fascinating female figures of classical mythology, European folklore, and history—from the Norse Norns to Macbeth’s witches serving Hecate, from the Greco-Roman Furies to the fearsome Thessalian necromancers.
As with Crawling Chaos’ previous works, WYRD is full of literary quotes and easter eggs, offering subtle nods to the most curious among the listeners.
Musically speaking, the album is uncompromising, heavy, and very dark.

This is a blend of modern dissonant DM with a solid foundation of old-school brutality. Most DM bands skew one way or another on this spectrum, but Cathexis sits perfectly in the middle. You get deliciously mordant chords on the high end and chunky half-time riffing on the low end. It's satisfying to get one's nerd on without sacrificing any windmill hair quotient. I'm already looking forward to more from this band.

This is a near perfect brutal death metal album, and is a must for any fan of Morbid Angel, Suffocation, or Deeds of Flesh. Lyrics are dark, yet intelligent and thought provoking. Production is crystal clear yet not overly polished. Riffs are crushing, leads are fluid, drums are excellent, and vocals are nasty. What’s not to love?!

Great blackened thrash that I haven't heard a lot about. It is worth the extra attention. Really solid album.
