Far be it from me to deny a band the right to representation under their full government name. However, Belarusian tech death entity Eximperituserqethhzebibšiptugakkathšulweliarzaxułum challenges not just SEO integrity, but also the sanity of all who would read its name. Good luck with that, too, because if you manage it, you’ll open a portal to an unfathomable universe of hellish delights. My bet is that nobody reading this accomplishes a successful pronunciation of Eximperitus’ full name before finishing this review, so onwards we go to examine the Meritoriousness of Equanimity!

In my review for Eximperitus’s last exhibit, Šahrartu, I cited the band’s refinement over their rough and jagged debut, the name of which is simply unsuited to anything other than an epic footnovel.1 This follows that same trajectory, further tightening and streamlining the Nile-meets-Necrophagist-meets-seven separate chainsaws sound that Eximperitus created for themselves back in 2009. Šahrartu’s trippy psychedelic twist remains intact as well, imbued deeply within Meritoriousness’ riffs, leads, and solos. Despite adopting a pace much less ballistic than Nile, Eximperitus instead views technicality as a vehicle to explore bizarre guitar techniques that create bonkers effects, allow for incredible density inside a more relaxed framework, and invite subsequent freakish antics on the percussive front. With all of this in mind, Meritoriousness is much more straightforward than Šahrartu, boasting a total runtime of 31 minutes and an average song length clocking in under 5 minutes per track. Thankfully, this minor tweak didn’t change Eximperitus’ penchant for protracted refrains, arcing tremolo melodies, and twisting, kaleidoscopic atmospheres.

Meritoriousness of Equanimity by Eximperitus

One thing I always appreciate about Eximperitus is its commitment to a high level of detail. Even in their most simplistic compositions, such as the transcendent “The Untimely Fruit of the Undead” and the stomping “Chalkionic Wandering Among the Wreckage of the Future,”2 brilliant little details like a popping clang of bass strings, a long, leisurely scrape across a fretboard, or a machine-gun snare fill continually focuses and intensifies my attention. Meritoriousness’ unorthodox way of opening makes for one brutal hook as well, as “One Step Long Infinity” riffs with great speed directly into a lumbering, chunky pound that introduces “Contemplation of the Plastic Fibers of Perfection at the Second Level of Reality” without an iota of ceremony. Almost universally operating inside the MENA double-harmonic scale, Eximperitus impresses with a wide gamut of riffs distinguished and elevated by dueling plucks that ping pong out of deep trembles across “Contemplation…” and “Golden Chains for the Construction of Individual Greatness.” Delicate melodies in “Twelve Centuries”3 make what would be a trite interlude a necessary palette cleanser for the more epic and sprawling “Finding Consistency in the Fourth Quadrant of Eternity,” which in its own right boasts delightfully bluesy leads, more than one of Eximperitus’ signature epic solos, and a new surprise: earnest, belting cleans! The ultimate result of such successful and smooth integration of innumerable notable points of interest is a rich, layered, and rewarding album experience.

Repeat spins deepen that sense of reward I get from investing my time with Eximperitus’ newest platter, but it also reveals one glaring omission: a climax. I’m not one to maintain that a climax is or should be the only goal of any experience, but Meritoriousness of Equanimity begs for one of the same caliber as Šahrartu‘s showstopper, “Inqirad.” While many, if not all, tracks on Meritoriousness boast big standout moments (the hammer drop at the final third of “The Untimely Fruit of the Unsaid,” the Wormhole-d riffing on “Golden Chains for the Construction of Individual Greatness,” all of “Chalkionic Wandering”) and spine-tingling passages (“Twelve Centuries…” and “Standing a the Skirt of the Ruins of Human Nature…”) that make this record so engaging, I know the level of epic high that Eximperitus are capable of creating, and it’s the one thing I miss here. Additionally, as much as I enjoyed the messy mix and noisy guitar tone on Šahrartu, on Meritoriousness, I fear it takes away a small measure of impact from some of Eximperitus’ more melodic or complex phrases. I’ll never wish for a clean Eximperitus record for as long as I live, but maybe just a touch less grime would help in this case.

Now that I absolutely embarrassed myself on word count, thanks to Eximperitus’ variously egregious song names, I can finally wholeheartedly recommend Meritoriousness of Equanimity. Hooky, technical, mystical, and majestic, Meritoriousness continues the otherworldly assault that these Belarusian curiosities initiated almost 20 years ago, but with greater refinement and exactitude than ever before. A worthy successor to Šahrartu, it lacks only a showstopper to secure its unrelenting takeover of my listening rotation. For those to whom that’s no impediment, I wish you well as Meritoriousness of Equanimity steals you from this mortal coil with disturbing ease.4
