UMUR
"Death In Pieces" is the eleventh full-length studio album by Swedish death metal act Centinex. The album was released through Agonia Records in May 2020. It´s the successor to "Doomsday Rituals" from July 2016. Only bassist Martin Schulman remains from the lineup who recorded the predecessor. Schulman is also busy as a member of Demonical and since the release of "Doomsday Rituals", Demonical have released their fifth full-length studio album "Chaos Manifesto" (March 2018), and few months after the release of "Death In Pieces", Demonical would also release their sixth full-length studio album "World Domination" (October 2020). The last couple of Centinex releases have featured at least a couple of Demonical members in the recording lineup, but "Death In Pieces" only features Schulman.

Stylistically the material on "Death In Pieces" is pretty standard fare Swedish death metal. It´s slightly different from the sound of the two preceding Centinex albums, but that may be a consequence of the major lineup changes taking place between the last album and this one. Other than that it´s pretty much business as usual with Centinex. They can play and write reasonably effectful death metal tunes, and also produce well sounding releases, and all that is also true for "Death In Pieces". It´s nothing out of the ordinary for the genre, but it´s solid and comforting as you know what you´re going to get. A 3 - 3.5 star (65%) rating is warranted.
