The review praises Depopulate for its exceptional twin-guitar technicality and inventive riffing within brutal death metal. Drumming is strong; vocals and bass are less prominent. Some tracks repeat riffs and a few songs falter, but overall it's described as a very good, above-average release. Rated 4/5.
