Virodh started out as a lone wolf operation by Sourav Koer down in Assam, laying down all the guitars and bass by himself. Eventually, the project recruited a full squad of maniacs, pulling in Pranaw Chhetri to destroy the drums, Rudra Sharma to spit the vocals, and Arun Nataranjan to pummel the bass. This expanded lineup unites on "Harvest Of Desolation", injecting pure hostility into a framework of Technical Death Metal.

The music operates with a filthy old-school death metal stench clinging to the riffs. The guitars rip through dissonant passages and twisted fretboard gymnastics. Everything crashes forward with frantic speed, dropping down into punishing mid-tempo sections. The strings tangle up in complicated fretwork, creating a constant tension running from the opening seconds to the final chords.


Songs like "Swept In Dismay" and "Kafkaesque" deploy rapid-fire drumming against savage riffing. The lyrics dive straight into societal collapse, bureaucratic rot, and financial ruin. "Great Depression" and "Dissolution Of Karma" align strictly with these subjects, vomiting out cynical hostility toward failing systems. The vocal delivery barks out these frustrations over erratic time signatures.

The production keeps things unrefined, making the instruments clash and grind against each other. The bass lines rumble under the frantic guitar picking, anchoring the chaos. The execution is fierce, and the playing is totally aggressive. Virodh unleashes a relentless barrage of extreme noise.

"Harvest Of Desolation" provides genuine technical extremity. The musicians tear through the tracks with a singular violent goal. It gives you a proper dose of twisting death metal without any unnecessary distractions halting the massacre.

Score: 7.0
