Well ... The name of the band was not strange when I received this promo, but from where I thought ... Hmmm ... Until the moment I started this review I could not remember. I had to search the net. AhAhAhAh !!! (But I discovered: p) Well ... Let's get down to business. What do we have here? Death Metal from Chile. Final point and paragraph and finished the review. AhAhAhAH. I'm kidding. Yes, we have a Death Metal facing Old School. At its best. From the chords used in the elaboration of riffs, to the passages of the same riffs, mastering, etc. everything that reminded me of the good years, the beginning of Death Metal, especially (and here I have to say), to the sound coming from Tampa, Florida and they range from Morbid Angel to Deicide. From the first song to the last song, it made me remember, especially Morbid Angel. However it still reminded me in some parts the Brazilian Krisiun. The sound of the guitars, the sound of the bass guitar that is heard and is very good, the "dry" sound of the snare drum and the rest of the drums and even the voice remembers the sound of that time. Very good. I can tell you that I loved listening to this album, not only because of what it reminded me of but especially because of the musical quality they were able to demonstrate. I strongly recommend this album to all Death Metal lovers. It's really worth it. Unfortunately the band after this album or before the album and here I could not find out, but it no longer exists. 8/10 By Me, Myself & I

On October 27th, Ordo MCM is proud to present the third and final album of Thy Serpent's Cult, Supremacy of Chaos.
Hailing from the cult metal hotbed of Chile, Thy Serpent's Cult have
been a veritable force of nature for nearly 10 years. Forming in 2008
and now gracefully bowing out on a high note, the quartet have
skillfully crafted a scorching firestorm of a sound lo these many years,
marrying the sulfurous atmosphere of ancient South American black metal
to the jackhammering militancy of classic Krisiun, Deicide, and
Angelcorpse. Thy Serpent's Cult released their second album in 2014 under the banner of Ordo MCM. Fittingly titled Sedition, Sorcery and Blasphemy, it was a whirlwind of darkness and dread, and was suitably hailed in the underground.
But now, sensing the end was nigh, Thy Serpent's Cult unleash their foulest and most dread energies with Supremacy of Chaos. Once again fittingly titled, Supremacy of Chaos reaps a hellish harvest of tornado-torn death metal, deeply and diabolically suffused with a tangibly occult aura. Here, Thy Serpent's Cult span
all their trademark traits - martial surge, swirling vortex, boiling
pressure - and send them deeper into the bowels of Hell. The title Supremacy of Chaos is
telling, in that the band do indeed hail the supreme powers of chaos;
and yet, in other ways, their songwriting is strict and finessed and
hardly a chaotic thing. Nevertheless, with a production that ably
balances the blood-red raw and robustly professional, Thy Serpent's Cult smother the senses with their overwhelming onslaught, thereby instilling a sensation of imminent chaos.
And as its last notes ring out, Supremacy of Chaos seals the coffin on Thy Serpent's Cult and preserves a legacy that will remain untarnished. Hail the old gods!
