It's been nearly a decade since Brazil's Soul Factor released a studio album. With such a length of time between albums, one might expect the band to change their sound, but it's as if the band recorded this album as the immediate follow-up to 2003's "Timeline". The music is pure, old-school, death metal with barely a touch of more modern influences. The songs are straight-up-heavy, riff-driven, heavy metal with old-school, growled death metal vocals. With so many vocalists trying to sound like Randy Blythe or a ticked-off Phil Anselmo, it's awesome to hear a vocalist follow in the footsteps of Chris Barnes or John Tardy. The one exception is "Hate" which features a duet between Daniel Martin's gutteral growls and some clean female vocals. Overall the music isn't speed-based, instead Soul Factor focus on heavy riffs and memorable songs. This is one of the areas in which this band has improved since their 2003 release. The songs here are definitely more memorable than anything the band had recorded in the past. There are the occasional faster tempo parts, but speed is never the basis for any songs. "Ruins of the Soul" for example, opens up with some quick double bass and a machine gun riff, but quickly moves into a more mid-tempo metal romp. The other big area of improvement is the recording and production. The recording is clean, without robbing the album of that raw, heavy song. The distorted, down-tuned guitars, pounding drums, growled vocals and actual audible bass guitar are all in their proper place. Despite being from Brazil, the lyrics to all the songs are sung in English and are all faith-based. Though the album was a longtime coming, "Resurgence Of Chaos" was worth the wait. Fans of old-school death metal with lyrics that are openly and unashamedly Christian can proudly display this CD aside their Crimson Thorn, Antidemon and early Mortification albums.
