Gore Metal!!!

This is a tremendous disc! (Not to mention the artwork is fuckin' brutal and morbid as Hell!) Ross Sewage and Matt Harvey do the vocals on this CD and they fucking kill! The Grind vocals sound like a meatier Carcass and the Death growls are the freaking lowest and deepest I have heard from this band to date. It’s fucking crazy. These men accomplish EXTREME creativity with their theme. In track 2 of the album, there is even what sounds to be a blender grinding up human flesh, bones and blood. Just beautiful.

Simply put; it’s bloody, excellent, noisy, grinding Death Metal. The drumming is extremely loud and brutal, and this is one of those albums where the bass lifts the guitar to a wall of sound where the riffs really crush you. Two of the band members went on to join Impaled and released a killer album called The Dead Shall Dead Remain.

The dual vocal attacks are completely sick. Also, a lot of the riffing on the album is quite creative. They remind of a really great Horror movie, since they all make their points across with humoristic views or just as a serious gore-slashing event, and it fits well for this album.

As you listen to the tracks, you can get a great feeling of seeing the decomposed corpses lying there, right in front of you, well at least I do. I can feel the gore-ish brutality that the band is bringing on. Especially when we hear the chainsaw come into action a few times.

I personally think that it is their best album yet, and their album cover art helps it a lot - very graphic and realistic.

Great Album!
