The Danish death metal monster Baest is charging toward Brutal Assault! Formed in 2015, the band took its name from the Danish word “bæst,” which means “beast” or “ferocious creature.” The group quickly built a reputation thanks to its raw, old-school death metal sound reminiscent of genre legends like Entombed, Bloodbath, and Bolt Thrower — complete with the signature buzzsaw guitars, heavy riffs, and aggressive growls.
