about

A dark ominous cloud has been cast upon the Southern California landscape as the ferocious WINDS OF PLAGUE prepare to unleash their wrath across the Earth with their sophomore release. The stunning slab of brutality entitled “Decimate The Weak” does exactly that with its razor sharp riffs and sheer intensity backed with a monsoon of angst and inner demons that is just waiting to be expelled on stage. The quintet has similarities to a darker version of Bleeding Through mixed with Nile with their haunting keyboards matched by a furious trashing assault, but make no mistake WINDS OF PLAGUE are paving their own path of destruction. Johnny Plague (vocals) states: "When I first heard the final product, I just leaned back in my chair with the most satisfying grin. I felt the heart and soul of my band come alive. I can only hope this album hits half as hard in the hearts of the metal and hardcore army as it did in mine. I’m even more excited to get out and spread this album to the masses. Come and join this path of destruction."

The group formed in 2002 under the moniker Bleak December and changed their name to WINDS OF PLAGUE in 2005 before releasing their debut offering “A Cold Day In Hell” on Recourse Records. They spent most of the following summers and school breaks on the road in the USA touring with the likes of Bleeding Through and many others. A flurry of touring activity came in the summer of 2007 on “The American Uprising Tour” which led them immediately into a massive US run alongside Suicide Silence and Despised Icon as well as an extensive European tour with Shai Hulud and Dead Hearts to wrap up 2007.

“Decimate The Weak” was recorded with Daniel Castleman (As I Lay Dying) and mixed by the legendary Tue Madsen (Dark Tranquillity, The Haunted), its artwork was crafted by Pär Olofsson (Dominion, Deeds Of Flesh). This offering still retains the band’s hardcore roots while the atmospheric sounds of Scandinavian black metal and classic American metal reign supreme.

Pity that I could not find the deluxe edition with LoG's Laid to Rest. Nevertheless I wanted to add Elegy to my BC collection. It's unique as it is a delightful mix of symphony and deathcore. The vocals are just the perfect "5th element" that allows both styles to intertwine perfectly. Ben Duerr is the perfect vocalist for this role. The Elegy trilogy at the end is just the apotheose of death-gasm, it's a good trip down to memory lane as I've seen S.O.I. live last year! sachavonkarl74

Two impressive vocalists, variable and skilled guitarists and a tight and very powerful rhythm section. That plus the ability to write a song really leaves nothing left to desire here. mourner
