Album Review
With Blood Comes Cleansing, With Blood Comes Cleansing
Released 2025<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reading the lives of the saints is something I\u2019ve loved doing over the years. Few things
can inspire a Christian as much as reading about the lives of those who came before us. It\u2019s a
great way to remember that \u201cwe are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses.\u201d (Heb.
12:1). With Blood Comes Cleansing\u2019s latest release seems to want to remind us of that, but in
the most heavy way possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once upon a time, With Blood Comes Cleansing were a big name in Christian deathcore
music. Releasing their first demo and the famed Dern EP in 2005, they quickly established
themselves with their first album, Golgotha, a record that married the usual brutality and
breakdowns of deathcore with an undeniable sense of melody and an extra emphasis on
hardcore-style gang shouts. 2008\u2019s Horror followed, but the band soon broke up not long after in 2010.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Perhaps this was a good thing in some ways; over the years that followed, deathcore
began to gradually wane in popularity. The initial power of deathcore\u2019s punishing breakdowns, in
my view at least, lost its effect. Fast forward to 2025. It seems time has done wonders to the
lads in WBCC. Like an unearthly monster sealed away in a forgotten tomb, left to rot in its own
juices and fester, WBCC has awoken with a vengeance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    <\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    The initial rumblings were felt with their Golgotha (2024 Redux) EP, with vocalist Michael
    Sasser (of the Golgotha album) returning with a way more guttural vocal approach. But WBCC\u2019s
    self-titled album has taken it all to the next level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    With Blood Comes Cleansing manages to take deathcore and make it exciting again. It
    recaptures that feeling I used to get when I would crank Impending Doom\u2019s Nailed. Dead.
    Risen. as loud as possible – the dropkick effect of the breakdowns, the insanely low gurgles and
    roars, the pure impact that the music had. There\u2019s no deathcore-lite nods to mainstream acts
    like Slipknot, and it doesn\u2019t descend into the simply chugging and gurgling that many slam
    bands do. That said, this is about as heavy as deathcore gets. I\u2019ve mentioned it already above,
    but it\u2019s like WBCC have here tried to outdo Impending Doom\u2019s initial salvo in terms of utter
    brutality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    I\u2019ll admit, the first track, \u201cJoshua 1:9,\u201d didn\u2019t hook me. The one-note chugging guitars
    generally never do it for me, and here was no exception. But then the rest of the album followed.
    Where Impending Doom\u2019s NDR focused especially on relentless, death\/grind-like speed, With
    Blood Comes Cleansing largely slows the music down to a monstrous groove. Robert Manzone,
    formerly of Legion of Adonai, couldn\u2019t be a better pick as a vocalist. This guy\u2019s vocals make the
    listener sound like they\u2019re being swallowed by an angry sandworm from Dune. Breakdowns
    avoid being too simplistic, and actually boast some extremely ominous riff patterns. Of course, it
    wouldn\u2019t be a WBCC record without the overt hardcore gang shouts, and these are still here.
    Daryn Lamontagne of hardcore outfit Southpaw FLHC features on an adrenaline-unleashing
    cameo on track \u201cThe Inverted Crucifixion (Peter)\u201d that sees the band lean the most towards
    hardcore that they ever have.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    On the lyrical end, the entire album is focused on the martyrdoms of the holy apostles
    and earliest followers of Christ, from St. Stephen the deacon and protomartyr to St. Luke the
    Evangelist. Each track focuses in hard on the brutal ways that tradition records their deaths, and
    though there are occasionally discrepancies about the manner, the message is the same.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


    WBCC have no time for what Bonhoeffer called \u201ccheap grace.\u201d For those who think Christian
    metal bands are growling about happiness and hugs, think again. Yes, these songs are about
    love, but a love that loves to the end, that is willing to die for its neighbour and for Love itself;
    that is, the Holy Trinity. St. Bartholomew was reportedly skinned alive; St. Peter was crucified
    upside-down because he felt unworthy to be executed in the same way as Jesus Christ; St.
    Thomas was run through with spears. It\u2019s hard subject matter to read about, and I would think<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    most of us would quake at the thought of dying in the manner that these holy men did. But the
    album serves to remind us that these followers of Christ followed Him to the very end, no matter
    what. If anything, it should inspire us and help us strive to ground our courage in Christ.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


    If you\u2019ve found yourself losing interest in deathcore as a style, prepare to be excited
    again. With Blood Comes Cleansing have aged with grace, and returned to remind younger
    bands what the old-guard of deathcore are capable of. With Blood Comes Cleansing is a
    riveting listen, and a welcome return to the style\u2019s roots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
