Now here's some brutal death metal. Clemency can be described as brutal death metal with an overdose of double bass and blastbeats. Yet the music isn't simplistic. In each song simple passages are varied with more technical parts. Guitar solos embellish most of the tracks. There's one lighter track: the instrumental Ascension Of The Imperial Hordes, which is only keyboards and drums. The song has a dark atmosphere. Divine Legions At War ends with Unearthed, a cover from the old Crimson Thorn song. The quality of the album is not top notch, but very agreeable. However, while one song might appeal to me, the entire album is a little bit too much for me to swallow. After a while a lot of things start sounding the same to me, like repeating the same recipe. Finally, what I want to mention as well, is that the album has beautiful cover art.
