Album Review - Overtures of Blasphemy by Deicide (Century Media)

Album Review – Overtures of Blasphemy by Deicide (Century Media)

American death metallers, Deicide, have released their latest album called Overtures of Blasphemy. Released via Century Media, Overtures of Blasphemy is the band’s first new album in 5 years, since 2015’s In the Minds of Evil.

I have always liked a bit of Deicide, since the early bangers like Serpent’s of the Light, but admit I got bored with them in the last decade or so. They have always…

Color Wheel:

29.63% Blue 25.93% Green 18.52% White 14.81% Black 11.11% Red

Pod 1 Game 1

Steven - Rona, Disciple of Gix Patrick - Kydele, Chosen of Kruphix // Thrasios, Triton Hero Rachel - Sliver Overlord Dustin - Tatyova, Benthic Druid

All politics, all game. This one was intense, three ‘combo’ based decks and a face deck and once the counterspell dust settled it was all about who could sell the win better. Turns out, Steven sold it to Patrick, getting the win and everyone else second. 

Pod 2 Game 1

Jonathan - Captain Sisay Jon - Jhoira, Weatherlight Captain Charles - Saheeli, the Gifted

Quoted:

I played Sisay turn 4 with Vedalken Orrery on Jhoira’s turn. I was able to establish my board state with plenty of weenies and then Avacyn and Sigarda. Jhoira and Saheeli built their board state and the next turn Odric gave everything everything and then they all died in combat.

Pod 3 Game 1

Billy - Nath of the Gilt Leaf Amy - Trostani, Selesnya's Voice Artie - Saheeli, the Gifted Taco - The Ur-Dragon

Nath had an incredibly fast hand, coming out turn 3, then Memory Jarred on turn 4 getting 21 more Elves into play. Earthcraft was the main reason Nath won on turn 5 and double Torment of Hailfire clenched the game. 

Pod 4 Game 1

Jesse - Varina, Lich Queen Ricky - Tuvasa the Sunlit Nick - Gisa and Geralf

Nick has a nice little Zombie Combo in his deck that ditches everything into the graveyard and he masses a huge horde of the undead. Which he did to win this game. 

Pod 1 Game 2

Nick - Gisa and Geralf Taco - Estrid, the Masked Jonathan - Marwyn, the Nurturer

Quoted:

Marwyn is off to a great start by using Mosswort Bridge’s Hideaway to secure Concordant Crossroads and mill off some turds. G&G gets off to a good start and mills some key creatures to reanimate later but Marwyn plays Steel Hellkite and wipes his board with 5 mana. G&G dies next turn to Commander Damage; Immaculate Magistrate untaps multiple times a turn bec Wirewood Lodge and Quirion Ranger. Marwyn is now at a stalemate with Estrid after a Martial Coup BUT I was able to save my 23/23 Marwyn and my Magistrate thanks to Ezuri’s regenerate. EVENTUALLY Jesse was able to build too many creatures with too many enchantments my saddest draw the turn before I died was Craterhoof with only one creature on the board

Pod 2 Game 2

Artie - Atraxa, Praetors' Voice Amy - Trostani, Selesnya's Voice Patrick - Kydele, Chosen of Kruphix // Thrasios, Triton Hero

CO-CO-CO-COMBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Pod 3 Game 2

Ricky - Tuvasa the Sunlit Rachel - Sliver Overlord Billy - Palladia-Mors, the Ruiner Jon - Jhoira, Weatherlight Captain

None of us really played a deck to interact and stop the combo of Jhoira. Once Paradox Engine landed that was all she wrote. 

Pod 4 Game 2

Charles - Inalla, Archmage Ritualist Steven - Rona, Disciple of Gix Dustin - Tatyova, Benthic Druid Jesse - Varina, Lich Queen

I have no clue what happened here. Varina ended up clenching the win though and the two combo/counter decks were put to bed quickly. 

POINTS:

Jon - 9 Points Jonathan - 9 Points Patrick - 9 Points Taco - 9 Points Nick - 8 Points Artie - 8 Points Amy - 8 Points Steven - 8 Points Charles - 8 Points Jesse - 8 Points Rachel - 8 Points Ricky - 7 Points Dustin - 6 Points Billy - 6 Points

OVERALL POINTS:

Steven - 60 Points Dustin - 58 Points Jonathan - 58 Points Patrick - 58 Points Billy - 55 Points Rachel - 56 Points Kevin - 41 Points Mike - 40 Points Ricky - 39 Points Artie - 39 Points Taco - 37 Points Justin (Sliver Bro) - 26 Points Jack - 24 Points   Charles - 31 Points Dominic - 17 Points James - 17 Points Baker - 13 Points Amy - 21 Points  Jesse - 16 Points Jon - 9 Points (WB) Nick - 8 Points (Welcome to the League!)

DEICIDE - Szöveges videóval az őszi album első dala: Excommunicated - http://metalindex.hu/2018/07/14/deicide-szoveges-videoval-az-oszi-album-elso-dala-excommunicated/ -

Overtures Of Blasphemy címmel szeptember 14-én jelenik meg a Deicide új stúdióalbuma, a 2013-as In The Minds Of Evil folytatása. A Glen Benton vezette floridai death metal brigád friss anyaga a floridai Sanforsban készült, az AudioHammer stúdióban, a producer Jason Suecof ( The Black Dahlia Murder, Trivium stb.) volt, a lemezborítót pedig Zbigniew M. Bielak (Ghost, Mayhem, Paradise Lost stb.) készítette. A szöveges videóval kísért első új dallal, az Excommunicateddel máris megismerkedhetsz.

  Glen Benton: “Nem akartuk elsietni ezt a lemezt, azért készült el lassabban. Páran talán emlékeznek arra az interjúra, amit Steve Ashaim (dobos/dalszerző, eredeti tag) adott, és amelynek során azt mondta, hogy ‘az anyag kész, de még nem egészen van ott’. Nos, az még csak a kiindulási pont volt, akkor kezdett igazán alakot ölteni a lemez, akkor kezdtek azzá válni a számok, amivé lettek… teljessé, kerekké, hatásossá. A végeredmény az Overtures Of Blasphemy lett, talán a csapat eddigi legerősebb anyaga.”

Single Slam: Defying the Sacred by Deicide (Overtures of Blasphemy)

American death metallers, Deicide, have released the second single from their new album. This song is called Defying the Sacred and it will feature on the band’s 12th studio album called Overtures of Blasphemy.

Overtures of Blasphemy will be the first album in over 5 years from one of the more controversial bands in death metal. It will be released via Century Media Records on the 14th of…

[ghostcultmagazine]

Deicide Shares New Single -

Deicide will release a new album on September 14th from their long-time label Century Media. Overtures Of Blasphemy will be their first album in five years, since In The Minds Of Evil. They just dropped a new single, 'Seal The Tomb Below', which you can stream now. https://youtu.be/SxlvLaXS92k Glen Benton commented: "This album came together over time, meaning we didn't want to rush it. "A few people might remember an interview where Steve Asheim (original member, drummer/songwriter) said 'the material is done, but it's just not there yet.' Well, that was the jumping off point of when this album truly started taking shape and the songs became what they are now...complete, compact and effective. As the band pushed forward, so did the writing process and a few other processes which made the record and the band stronger. The result is 'Overtures Of Blasphemy', perhaps the group’s strongest release to date. "Jason Suecof lended his considerable talents and attention to detail in making the tracking of the songs as great as they can be and the final mix as sonically brutal, yet as listenable as possible. An arduous process, but one well worth the time and effort."   The cover artwork was created by Zbigniew M. Bielak (Ghost, Paradise Lost, Mayhem) and can be seen below. Bielak states: "If you experienced the death metal boom of the early '90s first hand, you know why DEICIDE's flaming logo was the ultimate threat in the sanity department. "Working with Glen Benton was a great honor and a throwback to the time when death metal aesthetics were at their vilest. "Satan Spawn the Caco Deamon is alive and well."

League Night of 7-22-17

Well this past league was interesting! We saw gas, we saw Kruphix get a leg up, and we saw our resident Grixis player abandon red for a better outcome!

First off, the commanders:

2 The Scarab God 2 Hazezon Tamar 2 Kruphix, God of Horizons 2 Arcanis, the Omnipotent Baral, Chief of Compliance Selvala, Explorer Returned

The color wheel:

47.83% Blue 21.74% Green 13.04% White 8.70% Red 8.70% Black

Ho boy, there was a LOT of blue and green. More blue than anything. If only Hazezon and Sevala could swim. 

Since there was only 5 of us this past weekend, we did a pod of 5 people.

Game one was fast…, and not just like, meh…, yeah, turn 20 and 40 minutes later fast, I’m talking turn 5 and pretty much game fast. 

The first game’s commanders were: 

The Scarab God Arcanis, the Omnipotent Hazezon Tamar Sevala, Explorer Returned Kruphix, God of Horizons

Fun fact about game one, 3 of the 5 decks had Mana Crypt (or as I now call it, the Saw Card) out and one person died from it. We’ll get to that later.

“Wanna play a game?” 

Anyways, 

Sevala had an explosive start, I’m talking board stall (winter orb ((which I had to beast within)), thorn of amethyst) and gas like Quirion Ranger to keep the Parlay engine going. Had the game gone to turn 6 for Juston, I think we all would have lost to the ‘Giver’ elf. Actually, the only REASON the game even made it to turn 6 was because Dustin counterspelled Stoneforge Mystic early and bought everyone time. 

#blessed

Patrick was lucky enough to mostly watch the event due to drawing almost no lands the whole game. It wasn’t until the (3rd?) Parley from Sevala that his deck was thinned out a bit and that he managed to draw into some land and begin to play with everyone again.

Kevin ramped pretty fast. The Mana Crypt helping quite a bit as well as a bounce land to double him up. Even though he had to pay 7 to Sorin Juston (Thanks, Thorn of Amethyst), it was a turn 5 seven mana and that knocked Juston from 45 health to 10. Brutal.

Arcanis was also SORT of mana screwed this whole game. Although Dustin had an explosive start with Chrome Mox, Mana Crypt, he only had 2 islands for most of the game. Not to mention no real card draw due to not enough mana for casting Arcanis until it was too late in the game. 

Hazezon ramped hard and fast. I’m talking Mana Crypt, Mana vault, into ramp land and chromatic lantern. Turn 2 saw an anointed procession, and by turn 3, a Flashed Samut at the end of Dustin’s turn. Can I just say Samut is the best ever? K.  

Turn four was a hardcast Hazezon Tamar, which thanks to Annoited Procession made double tokens (8 Sand Warriors). We lived to turn 5, where Juston was put to 10 and I had been chipping a little bit away at Patrick’s health with Samut double strike. I cast Craterhoof behemoth (thanks Chromatic Lantern) and ramped everything up to 72 points of dmg with HASTE thanks to Mama Samut. 

Now, I couldn’t kill everyone and in my Hubris, I did not kill Planeswalker Papa Sorin Markov because I told Kevin I wouldn’t… I killed off Juston and Patrick together and put both Kevin and Dustin low. When I went to coup de grâce both Kevin and Dustin off on turn 6 (Keep in mind Sorin was +2 on Kevin’s turn) I was met with an Evacuation thanks to Dustin and my casting of ‘kicked’ Hunting Wilds caused me to return 4 of my lands to my hand. Sad days. This inevitably meant that I went from 35 life to 10, thanks to a round 2 Sorin! TWO PEOPLE SORIN’D!!!! HOW?!?

Scratch that, Gunslinger Markov is the name that should be used on that Planeswalker. PEW.PEW.

Although I was able to replay a lot of my stuff, it was at the hands of Kevin and Dustin combined getting me down to 2 life (Mana Vault helped a little too, what can I say, I’m greedy) and my bad luck rolling with Mana Crypt that inevitably killed me. Seriously, SERIOUSLY. NEVER. CHOOSE. ODDS. This led to the heads up match between Kevin and Dustin who had FINALLY got some islands but frankly, was just too far behind at this point to squeak a win out and eventually fell to the Scarab God deck.

Game 2

Whoa..... okay, this game lasted a LOT longer. I want to say about an hour, maybe a little more. It was a little tougher, but fun! Commanders for Game 2 were: 

The Scarab God Arcanis, the Omnipotent Hazezon Tamar Baral, Chief of Compliance Kruphix, God of Horizons 

Quick summary and notes, A lot of counterspells. A lot of stall. I’m adding in Red Elemental Blast. 

Lemme do a breakdown of game 2 now:

Kevin got to go first, I think. But for most of the game he struggled with mana up until the really interesting parts I’ll get to later! Arcanis was a okay start. Again with Chrome Mox and a little mana rock ramp, some counters and some draw, but no major threats thanks to Juston’s Baral, Chief of Compliance deck. Hazezon ramped a little bit slower this game. He was mostly kept in check by counterspells and bounce spells. Kevin Forbid Mirari’s Wake from coming into play, which makes no sense to me! It’s just a little mana ramp, GAWL! Juston countered Annointed Procession, and for the most part Hazezon was only allowed to Sand Warrior out with some small guys for most of the game. 

Funny thing! This was Juston’s board state for the entire game for over an hour. 

And when I think about it now, we could have probably killed him numerous times over, but often used him as a buffer to help our own games. Not sure if that’s a good or bad thing, but it does pay off for him in the points system at the end a little! Now here’s where it get interesting. Kruphix had MANA this game! Woo! And he was doing things, drawing 13 cards, stocking up on mana, discarding 13 cards thanks to Juston getting Kruphix out of the way and Dustin’s Windfall effect later which allowed us all to draw back up to 7 cards, (which was amazing btw, it got me 5 more lands ((zzzzz))). YOU SHOULD HAVE COUNTERED IT KEVIN! GAWD! So the game goes in a big circle for a while, and no one is really taking damage except for Dustin from his Mana Crypt occasionally (bringing him down to 27 I think at one point) and Patrick from his Mana Crypt

EVERY SINGLE TURN!

Eventually bringing him down to 10. YES. 10. I mean, I may have slipped in some Samut damage once but still, sounds better to die from Crypt. 

Now, this did not deter Patrick in the slightest. Thanks to Juston when everything was bounced back, the Mana Crypt did not come out again and saved his life. Hazezon had done a good bit of damage to several people at this point with a Decimator of Provinces that Patrick now had the mana to RITE of REPLICATION with KICKER. 

One of these creatures attacked Hazezon which I took glady (not really gladly) getting my life lower and then the other 4 went to Kevin who had a pretty substantial board state finally.  Sheoldred, Whispering One, Sidisi, Wrexial, the Risen Deep, Triskelion, and lol, a Snapcaster Mage with nothing to snap :( 

Several of these traded to kill off a couple of the Decimator of the Provinces and keep himself alive. The turns circled around BACK to the biggest threat (Patrick), Also, during this time I think Dustin and Kevin had kept fighting over a Consecrated Sphinx and who would own it and who would resurrect it for different reasons. It ended up not really doing much due to the dire board state put up by Patrick the coming turn. So Patrick still has several Decimators left, sacrificing one to Sheoldred (yay) and only having two left to hit anyone with, which he does, to kill off Dustin. Patrick follows up his board state with Avenger of Zendikar dropping 11 Plant Tokens on the field, but no land to buff them yet, having played a land earlier in the turn. Patrick DID have Burgeoning out to play additional lands, but Kevin was too smart and didn’t play a land for him to capitalize off that. Instead, on his turn, Kevin brought back his Sidisi from the graveyard thanks to Sheoldred (again!?) and searched for Massacre Wurm, WRECKING Patrick’s board state and his life and killing him. So brutal, so unexpected. Super great. 

This left Baral, Hazezon, and the Scarab God. 

Hazezon was low thanks to Patrick and getting smashed by Kevin one turn, having 11 tokens to work with that came into play that turn, I tried looking high and low for answers and to be able to cast Craterhoof and win. Baiting Juston into countering my Crop Rotation (which I have no Cavern of Souls) *MUAHAHAHAHAHAH* I reached far and wide and never really found an answer to kill both of them. Craterhoof was countered, sadly, I swung to kill Juston and then accepted my fate at the hands of fatties on Kevin’s side and died horribly.

The Card of the night was definitely Mana Crypt. It made a HUGE difference in two games life wise and was probably the most used in both games. 

Also, as a side note, we did play some more games and even had a GIANT pillow fight. At one point I got Ormendahl out, but Marit Lage came out and they basically just slapped hands the whole time. We ignored Omnath that whole game (Well, I didn’t).... I put out lethal vapors for him. But it really didn’t matter and I ended up taking like 21 damage in a turn anyways tanks to Where Ancients Tread.
