UMUR
"Troops of Unfeigned Might" is a 7" vinyl EP by US death metal act Arghoslent. The EP was released through Horror Records in July 2000 in a limited edition of 666 handnumbered copies. 222 of those are on clear vinyl.

While the debut album "Galloping Through the Battle Ruins (1998)" by Arghoslent didn´t exactly feature a pristine sound production, it was still a very charming melodic death metal album. The three tracks on "Troops of Unfeigned Might" are more or less in the same melodic death metal vein (not melodeath) but because of the rather bad rehearsal room sound quality my guess is that these are old demo tracks that have been put on this release. It´s just a wild guess though. These tracks might actually have been recorded after the release of "Galloping Through the Battle Ruins".

Arghoslent have released much better recordings in their career, but while especially the bad sound production considerably drags my rating down, it´s still obvious that the band write really powerful and melodic death metal. Because of the sound quality I can´t give more than a 2 - 2.5 star (45%) rating though.
