Such trivial details are neither here nor there though, and its good to hear that graduating to slightly bigger leagues hasn't slowed this Swiss outfit down at all. Continuing where _Hephaistos _ left off, Amok plough the depths of extreme speed and brutality in a fashion that often recalls Kataklysm's erstwhile calling card, the infamous Northern Hyperblast. This isn't the only string to their proverbial bow however, for every so often across the course of the record, the band dip into freestyle jazz flurries (think Dillinger Escape Plan on steroids) and even dabble in the odd indulgent gambit of noisecore ambience and traditional black metal melody.

At its core though, _Lullabies of Silence_ is grind of the ultra-technical variety, dipped in a swathe of raw, organic production and served up with the skill and class of bands several years their senior. You can bet your bottom dollar that those very bands will sit up and take notice after this.
