Mighty Music has always had a good ear for locating and putting out good death metal. Dying from the Germany band Anasarca underline this. Dying is a strong and brutal old school death metal effort that hits you like a sledgehammer right the start and it doesn't stop for the next thirty-three minutes.

The music is an elusive blend of American and European old school death metal. A blend that of course isn't different from much else, but Anasarca do what they do very well. The two-piece has been able to write songs that are recognizable, has vitality and lots of old school brutality. None of the songs on Dying are boring. All have the same high standard.

There's somewhat of unusual story tied to the lyrics. The lyrics are allegedly contributions made by terminal ill people who have written down their thoughts on dying. Anasarca has then rewritten them to actual lyrics. I find this to be an interesting way to do something that is a bit different.
