These songs fit riffs into rhythms to make a song move like an organic mass, its different parts pulling each other along and making repetition intensify rather than provide entropy, using death metal riffs without filler from other genres or phraseless placeholders.

Writing death metal requires taking the listener to the edges of coherent relationships between riffs in order to emphasize an internal dialogue in the song, where writing doom metal involves bringing the hearer to the edge of monotony and then introducing improbable forward motion.

What happens when something succeeds? It fixates on that success because now it has something to lose. Forget all those stupid alt-right tropes about “hard times make hard men weak, weak times make weak men hard” because they are like most things Right-wing merely a prelude to the type of sodomy that Jesus does not mind.

Mixing together the sounds of Incantation, Demigod, and melodic Swedish bands like early Unanimated, Concilivm create a thundering atmosphere of descent with a strong forward energy and songs where the riffs relate to each other and a theme, developing slowly in rolling conflicts.

In theory, Citizen X focuses on the discovery, prosecution, and capture of “necro-sadist” Andrei Chikatilo, a serial killer who claimed 52 victims whose raped, stabbed, beaten, and chewed-on corpses were found strewn through the woods and fields often years after they were killed.
