79. Ingested - "Ashes Lie Still"

More brutal death metal, but this time the home-grown variety via the highly thought-of Mancunian quartet (though due to the departure of Sam Yates they are currently operating as a power trio). They are six albums into a highly promising career and “Ashes Lie Still” does nothing to upset their momentum. It’s corrosive and crunching, full of crushing breakdowns and blistering pace. They are doing very little different than their previous releases but when it’s this pristine and this precision engineered there is no real need to make any significant changes.
