UMUR
"Horrific Manifestations" is a split release featuring Canadian death metal act Sedimentum and US death metal act Phobophilic. The Split was released through Rotted Life Records in May 2020. It features one track from each artist, which are exclusive to this release.

Sedimentum is first up with "Oblitération", which is a harsh, murky, and very brutal death metal track with abysmal deep growling vocals. Phobophilic´s "The Bottom of Creation" is a slightly more dynamic old school death metal track in their usual Demilich/Adramelech influenced playing style (this opens as one of their more heavy and doomy tracks, but soon enters whirlwind blasting territory). Both tracks are great quality old school death metal with a slight semi-technical twist. Nothing too fancy, but there is no doubt that these guys can play.

"Oblitération" features a slightly more dark and murky sounding production style than the more detailed yet still brutal and powerful sounding production on "The Bottom of Creation". Two tracks of course aren´t much to put on any release, but mind you that both tracks are exclusive to "Horrific Manifestations" and both are well worth the price of admission. A 3.5 star (70%) rating is deserved.
