The sixth full-length in the Sylosis catalogue, 'A Sign of Things to Come' is instantly recognisable as the most potent and powerful of the band's career. Comprising ten concise and crushing metal anthems, the new record covers a huge amount of musical ground while simultaneously delivering several metric fuck-tons of Middleton's trademark, ripping riffs. Notable for being the shortest Sylosis album to date, 'A Sign of Things to Come' is also the band's best: from the all-out thrash war of the opening 'Deadwood' and the snarling, groove metal fury of 'Pariahs', to the lurching sludge and sublime chorus payoff of 'Eye for An Eye,' and 'Thorns' shimmering, gothic doom vibes, the phrase 'all killer, no filler' has never been more applicable. Ten songs, ten triumphs: mission accomplished.
