EP Review: Sematary - Warboy (2020)

Warboy is a fairly polarizing release within the Haunted Mound fanbase. Many call it Sematary - or even the whole Mound's - best work, some call it his worst. What do I think? Well, it'll be pretty obvious soon enough...

The first thing one hears upon hitting play on this album is a choir singing, a sample taken from an old Grausamkeit demo. I used to skip this, I'm not gonna lie, but I honestly missed out because this short intro (under a minute long!) does much to establish the feel of this EP, grim, grimy, and warlike. It's a great introduction to the tape, and makes 10,000 Weeping Choirs' intro go that much harder.

Speaking of 10,000 Weeping Choirs, that song is a pretty much perfect establishing track for the sound of this album, production and rapping wise. The beat features a nightcore-d sample of an Electric Wizard song, turning a slow and rumbling riff into a bright (but still aggressive) and groovy one. The hi-hats rattle along, with lots of rolls and fills, the snare is punchy and rhythmic, and the bass and kick drum are heavy as shit, when I listen to this in the car my whole car shakes. I would argue that Warboy is also the peak of Sematary's black metal aesthetic, and nearly every song samples metal guitar riffs, over which Sematary's grim esoteric horrorcore lyricism fits perfectly.

Sematary's flows and rapping are at arguably their peak on this EP. Every song is catchy, fun, and fresh to listen to. We get serious lyrics, funny lyrics, and super memorable lyrics. Each song has it's own character to it, and honestly seems to take place in its own world, separate from the rest of the EP but with obvious thematic and stylistic overlap. I'll put some highlights down below :P

This whole verse, from 10,000 Weeping Choirs, is ICONIC and sets the tone for the EP perfectly. This is exactly how listening to this EP feels.

I love how Sematary's voice sounds while he says these lines. I wish I knew how to mix like this, it sounds so cool and this particular part of the verse has such a dope flow I just love it.

Older r/hauntedmound users know why I had to put this one☠️

Overall, I would say this is absolutely one of Sematary's best works. I actually considered it to be the best Sematary release until HAW recently clicked for me. Every song on here is an absolute bop, they're so even qualitywise that it's always been hard for me to name a favorite. Every track is distinct, yet have a consistent aesthetic and sound, so the EP sounds very coherent and "pure", if that makes sense.

9.8/10
