"For a power trio, Solace of Requiem pack a rather heavy punch, throwing jabs and hooks via a healthy assortment of angular, crunchy riffing and mosh parts that are thicker than a steak at the country buffet. The mid-section of "Red Sea" exemplifies this best, as a slow, lurching riff blasts the song off into a morbid Angel-like solo section that is worthy repeated listens.
