This is the second album from US death metallers Visceral Disgorge.
Here we have around 30 minutes of brutal death metal. It’s largely inspired by late 90s/early 00s classic death metal, although this is given a modern makeover and also incorporates some slam elements. Overall, the word for this album is brutal. Brutal Brutal Brutal. Continue reading “Visceral Disgorge – Slithering Evisceration (Review)”
This is the debut album from Horrific Demise, a death metal band from the US.
Made by experienced hands, (current and ex-members of Lividity, Gorgasm, Sarcophagy, Necrotic Disgorgement, and others), that clearly love their work, Excruciating Extermination contains 31 minutes of brutal death metal. Continue reading “Horrific Demise – Excruciating Extermination (Review)”
Devourment are a death metal band from the US and this is their fifth album.
Mixing brutal, old-school death metal with slam, Obscene Majesty is disgustingly heavy and ferociously nasty. Continue reading “Devourment – Obscene Majesty (Review)”
Victims of Contagion are a death metal band from the US and this is their debut album.
Victims of Contagion play death metal that mixes brutality with technicality, resulting in songs that aren’t overly technical just for the sake of it. Instead, the technicality is used to forge tracks that place the song at the heart of what the band do. Continue reading “Victims of Contagion – Lamentations of the Flesh Bound (Review)”
This is the third album from Australian brutal death metallers Disentomb.
I’ve seen Disentomb live a few times over the years, and they’ve always impressed with their energetic brutality. I have to say that The Decaying Light is not what I expected, as alongside the utter brutality I was prepared for, there’s an intricacy and depth of delivery here which caught me off guard. Continue reading “Disentomb – The Decaying Light (Review)”
This is the debut album from Canadian death metallers Brand of Sacrifice.
At a lean 26 minutes, God Hand gets in, does its damage, and gets out again. One of the things I like about Brand of Sacrifce, however, is even though their songs tend to be short, the band aren’t afraid to play with the modern death metal formula. Continue reading “Brand of Sacrifice – God Hand (Review)”
This is the third album from Vulvodynia, a death metal band from South Africa.
If you haven’t encountered Vulvodynia before, they play brutal slamming death metal, and do it extremely well. Along with a handful of others they’re pretty much at the top of the pile when it comes to this sort of thing. Continue reading “Vulvodynia – Mob Justice (Review)”
This is the fifth album from Fleshgod Apocalypse, an Italian death metal band.
The follow up to the acclaimed King, Fleshgod Apocalypse’s orchestral death metal is in fine form on Veleno, with the band’s symphonic orchestration once again ably enmeshed in their technical workouts and core brutality. However, the Continue reading “Fleshgod Apocalypse – Veleno (Review)”
This is the debut album from Ohio Slamboys, a brutal death metal band from France.
Now here’s an album that does exactly what it says on the tin. Slamming death metal with a zombie fixation? Why the Hell not! It would be so easy to play this kind of thing badly and end up a generic mess of gore and entrails, but do you know what? This album is just a big old ball of bloody fun. Continue reading “Ohio Slamboys – Zombie Killing Process (Review)”
This is the third album from Abnormality, a death metal band from the US.
I like Abnormality. Sociopathic Constructs follows 2016’s Mechanisms of Omniscience, and gives us 33 minutes of brutal death metal with a side order of technicality. Continue reading “Abnormality – Sociopathic Constructs (Review)”
