Chronicles Of Lunacy

The underground has always lost their minds over Defeated Sanity for the better part of three decades. The band are revered for infusing old-school death metal with jazzy chaos and the technical precision of a classical composer. But when these four maniacs were thinking about their seventh album, the idea was to go easy on the brainteasers and get back to snapping necks. - Chronicles of Lunacy isn't Defeated Sanity for dummies. Whether he's hammering blast beats or springing between crash cymbals, founding member Lille Gruber never stops changing tempos during lead single "The Odour of Sanctity". But this album does draw a jagged red line back to Defeated Sanity's brutal origins. It's concept is wrapped up in all the twisted ways that delusional thinking warps our mind.
