What Mantar has offered thus far from its sophomore effort has been gigantic riffs and pounding drums that seem much more intent on crushing than they do obliterating at high speeds. While "Praise The Plague" isn't exactly grindcore, it's a bit quicker of an effort than what we've heard off Ode To The Flame thus far… and guess what! It's still heavy as shit, because Mantar pretty much can't put out a song that isn't absolutely destruction.
Ode To The Flame will burn your house down and piss on the ashes on April 15 via Nuclear Blast.
