Anhkrehg - _Brutal Witching-Metal_
by: Adam Wasylyk (4 out of 5)
A three-piece from Montreal, Anhkrehg show that the smaller bands in Quebec have something to offer too. The band combines death metal grunting and black metal screaming with heavy and catchy guitar riffing, and often speedy drumming. On _Brutal Witching-Metal_, there are 10 tracks, with most of the songs sung in French, about ancient wars and battles. Songs like "Acte II (L'Armee De Dieu)", "Acte IV (L'Invasion)", the great title track (with military drumming and grinding bass), "Under the Reign of Leviathan", "Satan's Curse", and "To the Devil... A Daughter" are really strong and enjoyable to listen to. Also included is a live track, which I must say is quite rare to see on a demo. The layout isn't bad, mostly b/w but contains three small colour photos, one of each band member. Production is much better here than on their previous demo, _Sacrificial Goat_ (see review in CoC #10). A better than average demo, and a band to be reckoned with.
