Description
Master strikes again! Old-school death metal in its purest form!
For many of us, Master has always been the epitome of anachronism--and rightly so. No matter which trend was in vogue at the time, Paul Speckmann gave it the finger and stayed true to his signature blend of death metal and intense thrash metal--a style that helped launch a new genre in the late 80s.
While some releases were more successful or better-sounding than others, and consistency varied, he remained indifferent to the opinions of outsiders (fans aside), focusing instead on what Master does best. Now, in 2026, he is set to release his 16th (!) album, *Among the Seeds of Death*. It serves as a magnificent continuation of the Master legacy, following the powerful 2024 release *Saints Dispelled*.
So, what's new on *Among the Seeds of Death*? Nothing! And that's a good thing; the high-quality songwriting will grab your ears and is guaranteed to make you smile and headbang. Listeners can expect that familiar mix of old-school death-thrash and punk attitude--blended together into the kind of tasty old-school death metal concoction only Speckmann can deliver!
You won't find any modern sounds here; it feels like a trip back to the 80s or early 90s--exactly what we all want. Yet, it's all captured with a massive, heavy sound that preserves that vintage vibe while utilizing the best recording technology of 2026.
*Among the Seeds of Death* won't disappoint any Master fan; that's simply impossible. Perhaps it will even win over a few more Speckmann devotees?
