Musicwise, “The Way out of Hell” can’t be considered a pure Black metal album for its many influences as my child of the night will notice while listening to the album. That’s why I’d rather call them Technical Black Metal band for the many moods and atmospheres herein. To some extent, Hiss from the Moat handle with great dextery to combine Death Metal and Thrash Metal with a Black Metal spirit. As a plus, the guitars add some finesse to everything here. Guitar lines of “Bury Me” are out of this world with such a feeling that dare to combine modern techniques with old ones. It’s great the way the band controls the tempos in the songs. In a blink of an eye it goes from a Doom Metal grave to a Speed Metal Allegro near the borders of a Grindcore Presto as “All I Have” delivers the fan. Pretty impressive what they do here.
Extreme metallers of all kinds will love “The Way out of Hell” for all it delivers and all the feelings and emotions mixed in here. Of course, not the kind of petty emotion pop music tells about. Emotion only available with Extreme Metal music. And we all know what it’s all about. No rest for the wicked.
Hiss from the Moat “The Way out of Hell” will be released on October 28th via Distortion Music Group.

I’m just a lucky guy who has chosen metal to live with for a long time. Metal changed my life for good. It made me more confident and stronger. Metalheads are naturally far away from the mass mediocrity and don’t accept impostures from anybody else. Metal is more than music, it’s a life changing oportunity!
