If you are impaired in some way, in case you didn't pick up on the less-than-subtle anti-Christian stance from the aforementioned albums, Hate's sincere inclination for the immoral turpitude in life is as evident as ever. Coming in at just a shade over thirty-six minutes in length, Adam the First Sinner (as if you needed more evidence of their rogue Mephistophelian penchant), Hellrizer and Cyprian spew forth eight more cuts of mostly scorching death metal with seldom a diversion from the resultant brutality on _Anaclasis_.

While a hint of technical melody and emphatically downtuned style presents itself on the release, _Anaclasis_ is acceptable in the way that one wouldn't expect Green Jelly to blaze forward into formerly uncharted musical territory. As Death's Chuck Schuldiner (RIP) found the genre mostly confining, yet Hate embraces the style's repressiveness like a miser would his riches.

Hate's website is quite detailed and _Anaclasis_'s cover art fairly exceptional. Fans partial to the metronome set at hyper-intense levels and those akin to the Deicide / Vader blueprint, Hate's newest release will fall right in step. _Anaclasis_ is solid, but in a Soilwork _Natural Born Chaos_ boilerplate kinda way. Given the experience of this outfit, there needed to be just something more.
