With roots in the UK’s anarcho-grindcore scene, Bolt Thrower plunged headlong into metal with Realm Of Chaos, producing a grim epic of deathly war-grind based on fantasy game lore. Combining doom-crusted riffing with autistic solo outbursts and spasms of martial blast-beats, Realm Of Chaos is a pestilential evocation of darkness and death bringing English metal one step closer to its American analogues.
