UMUR
"Opposer" is the fourth full-length studio album by Danish death metal act Deus Otiosus. The album was released through Great Dane Records in April 2017 almost to the day three years after the release of the preceding album "Rise". No lineup changes has taken place, and Deus Otiosus have actually had a stable lineup since 2012.

The word stable can also be used to describe the band´s sound and the quality of their output, because the material on "Opposer" continues the old school thrash infused groove laden death metal style of the preceding releases. The band are still well playing and delivers their music with both skill and great conviction. The vocals are to my ears the weakest link as the growling is a little one-dimensional. Other than that the music is powerful, brutal when it needs to be, and most importantly energetic and filled with sharp organic grooves. "Opposer" features a powerful and well sounding production job too, so upon conclusion it´s another good quality death metal release by Deus Otiosus. A 3.5 star (70%) rating is deserved.
