UMUR
"Deep Deep Down They Sleep" is an EP release by German death metal act Sulphur Aeon. The EP was released through Imperium Productions in May 2012. It´s the band´s first official label release. Sulphur Aeon were formed in 2010 and released the "Sulphur Phalms" demo the same year, before releasing this EP. None of the material from the demo is featured on "Deep Deep Down They Sleep".

"Deep Deep Down They Sleep" features 2 tracks, and a full playing time of 8:42 minutes. Both tracks are in a technically well played, brutal, and atmospheric death metal style. It can sound quite chaotic because lots of things happen all the time in the music, but Sulphur Aeon are both skilled musicians and composers, and the chaos is cleverly structured.

The sound production is professional, powerful, and pretty raw, which suits the music perfectly. So it´s obvious that Sulphur Aeon have a lot to offer the listener. The tracks could have been slightly more catchy, but that´s a slight issue, and considering it´s the band´s first official label release it´s actually quite impressive. A 3.5 star (70%) rating is deserved.
