 TENSION PROPHECY are a technical death metal band from IRAN now residing in GERMANY..

After some member changes and a few excellent releases, TENSION PROPHECY has dropped their new release "TRIBAL HATRED" on AMPUTATED VEIN RECORDS. 

 TENSION PROPHECY'S "TRIBAL HATRED" kicks off with "LAST BREATH BEFORE REVIVED" as the track features a horn, cowbell (?), and some guttural vocals set to some brutal and technical music. A definitive riff and excellent solos  rip through "LAST BREATH BEFORE REVIVED". 

. TENSION PROPHECY'S  "UNCONTROLLED FIGURE" invokes a MESHUGGAH like thrashy groove before slowing down to mid pace. Mid way through "UNCONTROLLED FIGURE", the track speeds up with a technical breakdown. 

The title track from .TENSION PROPHECY'S "TRIBAL HATRED" feature chants, gang vocals and some mildly technical playing, all set to the a back dropp of groove and great solos. 

 TENSION PROPHECY'S."PHILOSOPHICAL DEATH" kicks off with a death metal rapping before exploding into blast beats set to a nice groove."PHILOSOPHICAL DEATH" features some amazing shred and groovy tones. 

 TENSION PROPHECY'S. "INGLORIOUS POWER" plows through with pinch harmonics and technical versatility..Half way through ."INGLORIOUS POWER" the band feature some cool doom riffs set to some convincing guttural vocals. 

 TENSION PROPHECY'S. " INTRINSIC FEAR"  is a rager played tight with conviction. You can hear a spazz attack of technical blitz. In the blink of an eye, " INTRINSIC FEAR" segues into JAZZ excursions smack in the middle of some visceral riffing. 

TENSION PROPHECY'S. "CHEMICAL MASS KILLING" features some punchy riffing, groovy yet malevolent. Technical riffs are scattered in between speed and an ambient middle part.  .  

TENSION PROPHECY'S. "MISANTHROPY" features some serious technical versatility set to some catchy grooves, blast beats and good solos. .   

TENSION PROPHECY'S "TRIBAL HATRED" closes with  "HEINOUS DIVINITY" is a msohable spazz attack of cerebral tech death metal. "HEINOUS DIVINITY" features some excellent solos, good drumming and a pummeling atmosphere. 

. TENSION PROPHECY'S "TRIBAL HATRED" is a tasty caldron of everything all at once, and it works. 

Technical guitar riffs cut through the oh so delicious grooves as  TENSION PROPHECY will try anything including rap, jazz in a multi genre attempt to break the stereotypes,

TENSION PROPHECY remind me of GOROD and CEPHALIC CARNAGE, if perhaps the two bands were in a steel cage wrestling match, or a had a bastard child. 

TENSION PROPHECY have a lot of talent as hopefully "TRIBAL HATRED" will raise the bands profile. 

Hails to TENSION PROPHECY and I can't wait to hear more from this band.
