There's been some controversy about this album of the Nicaraguan sickos Gorepoflesh on some blogs I've been on. I think this album is a really really sick release and I mean literally sick.
First the vocals. They are just so guttural and sick, it's a real pleasure to listen to them (comparable to Condemned/Cephalotripsy). The tempo alters from really fast blasting parts (nice drumming!) to slams (heavy shit). I love the hard sound of the drums a lot. You have to listen closely sometimes to hear the riffs in the guitar sound, but it's still awesome and it gets pretty fast oftenly. I think a major factor for the controversy about the album is the production. But hey! I've hardly ever heard an album to which shitty production added so much awesomeness and sickness. The sound of the entire record is just inhumane and not of this world. This shit is literally disturbing, because it sounds so sick and twisted!

Regardless or even because of the production this album is sick shit! I really love it.

This is a hot Brutal Death tip. The vocals alter from low growls to really high and sick pig squeals. The song writing is awesome. There are groovy slammish parts with a Dying Fetus styled riffing, but fast blasting a lot, too. This record somehow has a nice old school touch to it although especially the vocals make it more modern at the same time. The production is pretty harsh, contributing to the old schoolish sound.
Anyway, I'd love to see them reunite and release something like this again (this exellent record was actually their debut). I've recognized a lot of people really adoring this record (lastfm and my circle of friends) and so do I.

This is a really awesome Brutal Death release with everything a brutal head needs.

Blasphtized (UK) - Demo 2008 (2008)



Country: United Kingdom (London, Croydon)
Released on: self released

Tracklist:

1. Inseminating The Virginal Flesh 04:83
2. Brazen Debauchery 04:17
3. John The Blasphtist 04:12
Total playing time: 13:07

Another promising Brutal Death demo from the English band Blasphitized. There are really heavy slams and a very skilled vocalist on the mic. The vocals are pretty sick and well made pig squeals and low gutturals, so quite typical slam vocals. There are just a few high speed parts most of the music is mid-tempo to slow slams.
The riffing is typical slam riffing with this wierd very high guitar sound sprinkled in sometimes (don't know what that is called), which sounds pretty sick.
Regarding that this is a demo the production is quite good. Think these guys are going to be really awesome on a better produced full-lenght album.

So if you are into Slam, these guys are just right!

This record is a very old skulish sounding piece of Brutal Death Metal especially because of the muddy production, which lets it sound a bit like Regurgitation (USA). The vocals are really awesome growls and pig sqeuals. The band was founded in 1992 and the riffing reminds me of Dying Fetus a bit. There are a lot of slam parts in the songs alternating with blasting parts. The music has an awesome groove and the songwriting is cool. I'd really recommend this to you, I really love this band.

I like this record a lot because of it's muddy and harsh sound, the groove and the awesome vocals.

This is my favourite Deathgrind album ever! I think some of you might not know them, yet so I added them here. This albums is a furious mixture of Brutal Death and a nice bunch of Grindcore. First the vocals: they are simply inhuman and I have hardly ever heard something comparable to this. Massive deep and evil growls and really sick gutturals alternate with insane high screams. And all that presented at a level of intensity harmonizing with the insanely blasting brutality of the music and the pounding slammish mid-tempo parts.
The drumming is tight and extremely fast mostly. The music has a nice amount of groove, regularly cut off by an insane blast beat massacre. The guitars are deep and brutal as fuck.
This album has so much emotion in it, it is so passionate and vital.
Additionally to all these great features the production has high quality. Only downer with this record is that it's really short. Thus, when you've listened through this beast you are going to feel like you were a girl pitying the fact that the dick of your beloved boyfriend was slowly gliding out of your fucking pussy after an immensely hard and nasty quickie.

If you like BDM and don't mind a nice portion of Grindcore you will jizz in your pants when you listen to this grinding BDM massacre!

This is really hot stuff! Very intense Brutal Death with incredible vocals. Really brutal low growls and pig squeals mixed with fewer insane highs. I'd even compare the intensity of the vocals and the music to Nervous Impulse (CAN, best Deathgrind band I ever got to know). I'm not comparing these two bands musically just regarding their intensity (Organ Harvest is BDM, not Deathgrind). Only thing that misses to get so far is that the quality of the production represses the energy of it a smidge. The speed reaches from really devastating slam to MG42 parts. The seesaw in the tempo is just awesome and really gets me going.

I'd really love to see this band get started again and release something with the best production quality possible. This release is just great.

The vocals on this brand new Gorgasm release are pretty classic deep Death Metal growling done right. Nevertheless I'd like to hear some more extreme vocal styles.
The speed of the music is pretty high with several really crushing slamming parts (love the changes of the tempo; a slam part is suddenly dissolved by a brutal machine gun part). The guitar work is fast, the drumming is tight and blasting. I really like the sound of the drums. Some melodic soli are sprinkled into the intense high speed riffing. Most of the samples used are needless in my opinion and annoying (that really depends on if you like this horror sample stuff). Fortunately they are not too long mostly.
The production is clear and is at good as it gets in the genre.

All in all a pretty intense Brutal Death album, definitely worth the money.

The vocalist is skilled, the drumming is tight and is really fast partly, and the riffing is cool. The vocals remind me of Fumes of Decay, so basically pig squeelish growls with few high screams (not too much, not annoying).
The riffing goes all over the place and has some heavy slammish parts also. Some dismal melodies appear here and there, but not too much.
The tempo alternates from mid tempo parts to fast blasting parts.
The production is clear and good.

The CD is pretty short indeed, but what you get is 15 minutes of pretty awesome high quality Brutal Death Metal.
