Blunt Magazine review posted

jaron@universum.com.au — Tue, 3 Mar 2009 11:33:38 +0930

Blunt Magazine have published the following review of 'Leto Destinatus' in their February Mag Issue #78.

Universum

Leto Destinatus

Independent 9/10

Taking into account that the band supported Dragonforce on their recent Australian tour, I was expecting something more akin to the headliners to spew forth from my speakers when I threw Universum's record into my stereo. Instead, I was greeted with a tuneful slab of Swedish-style death metal, one that will no doubt draw comparisons to Soilwork's earlier material (a la The Chainheart Machine) due to the healthy injection of melody into an otherwise aggressive mix. Tracks like "Day Of Redemption" and "Invisible Scars" are a fine example of what Universum are capable of, however the entire record is as impressive as anything that's been released Stateside this year. Keep it up guys (and girls).
