Supreme Act Of War is a Canadian extreme metal project driven by Peter Wolvesblood, who handles guitars, vocals, and bass. Session drummer Todd Hansen provides the percussion for the new album “Divisions Of The Night”. The music tackles modern conflict, political flashpoints, military campaigns, and the media machine. Several guests join the assault, including vocalists Yong Ho, Jason Cotton, and Takahashi Harima. Additional guitar work comes from Ef Six, and Marko Vukovic adds bass on the final track. The production was done by Peter Wolvesblood, with mixing and mastering handled by Colin Attlesey.

Supreme Act Of War brings pure aggression to “Divisions Of The Night”. The guitars rip through fast tremolo picking and heavy power chords, heavily inspired by bands like Bolt Thrower, Nile, and Slayer. The riffing provides a harsh crunch, while drums blast through the mix with a mechanical, punishing pace. “Thunderbolt Razorback” acts as a literal tribute to Bolt Thrower. The hostility of the music matches the anger found in the lyrical themes regarding government responses and modern warfare.

Having multiple guest vocalists adds needed variation to the vocal attack. The tracks “Geobukseon” and “Kinmen Bombardment” feature these different voices screaming over constant blast beats. The vocal delivery stays completely hostile. Sometimes the songwriting becomes monotonous. Several tracks follow an identical tempo and structure. The aggression remains high throughout the playtime. The lack of dynamic shifts causes the middle section of the album to drag slightly.

Ending an extreme metal release about modern warfare with a cover of Rush’s “Tom Sawyer” is a weird choice. It abruptly breaks the intense hostility built up prior. “Divisions Of The Night” supplies enough heavy riffs for a casual listening session. It has raw aggression and some cool guest spots. The momentum stumbles due to similar song structures. The album works as a decent background assault.
