AMOEBIC DYSENTERY - Hospice Orgy
The Czech Republic is definitely one of the greatest places for brutal music, especially grind. This is total insanity and brutality in purest form! Amoebic Dysentery is actually an amazing band really; their music has impressed many gore fiends around the world and they have truly achieved a good reputation in the Goregrind scene. The sickness of this album is almost beyond brutal, 22 minutes of Drum Machine driven blasting gore grind in vein of Macabre, Impetigo, Rompeprop and Napalm Death which will perforate your eardrums after the first couple of tracks; that's always a good feature in a goregrind album believe me. This is what GoreGrind used to be, a rancid mix of fast as hell music moved by straightforward chords and uncomplicated patterns. I'll keep this review short If your a fan of Amoebic Dysentery before, if you havent got this get it now! This album wont disappoint.

ANAL MASAKER / ZOMBIE MILITIA
- 548 Songs / 858 Songs
This is an utterly sickening hymn of pure grind-noise turmoil! The bands of course relies on most of the clichés found in this subgenre and to a great degree it works as it should, but the music suffers under an obvious lack of variation. I would have given the CD a higher score if there had been some samplers or something else to add to the diversity, but there isn't and frankly it end up being a one-tracked blast beat massacre. It sounds good for the first ten songs, but after that it all tends to sound the same. For sure they are really insensible and fierce! They make unnamable noise with their instruments; and they're fucking kill-crazed!!! Well, this band fucking shreds and plays total grind-noise, but their sound is not full enough to stir up my interest for a long time... Unquestionably not for the people into clear sounding or technical music, Just Pure Fuckin incarnate Grind/Noise obliteration! Check these fuckers out! alienaudio@gmx.de
CLITPEELER - Bitch Gives Rotten Head
I didn't know anything about Clitpeeler before popping in this cd, but you can count me as a fan now though! This cd offers us 20 tracks clit peeling violent porno/noise grind, with raw and noisy repugnant distortion and insane pissed off vocals. I can not identify from where all the distortion comes from: if it is a distorted grinding bass or a downtuned guitar, but the truth is that everything here is really violent. Drums are programmed and happen to sound quite robocop, vocals are sickeningly pitch-shifted and sound all very grotesque, gurgling and splattery; the riffs are chaotic, dirty and abrasive!!! Fans of gore noise check these fuckers out! Cant find the contacts. ;(
CUNT SHITTER split Jerry Curl Anal Juice - Puke Pan Platter
Let’s start with Cunt Shitter, first band on this split release. The intro is kinda familiar. I guess it was taken from fruity Loops plugins.. hehe. I remember using that one on our demo called "Southern Loser" hehe. Anyway, I don't have any information about Cunt Shitter & don't know anything about them. I loved how the musick just kicks down the door right from the beginning & just continues to come at you full force. The musick is a combination of Goregrind & Techno music. If you are familiar to bands like SMES or early stuff with Libido Airbag then you might get the idea what these guys are going for.. Now we got Jerry Curl Anal Juice. These fuckers play putrid porngoregrind. The Filthy burping vocals that remind me a little bit Urine Festival. The band has a really cool sense of humor and this stuff is actually a lot of fun to listen, great choice of samples!! I was laughing my ass off for the entire duration of track 27... Fucking great! This may not be the most groundbreaking stuff these days, but it's really not bad either. You can obtain a copy of this cd thru Mental Abuse Records. What are you waiting for?
GUTTED WITH BROKEN GLASS - Beaten to a Bloody Pulp
This is another release from Austrailian label Grindhead records who showcase some of the best newer acts that gore/grind has to offer.. I got this CD along with the new Pathology and Emabalming Theatre. If you are looking for fresh acts the sickest death/grind band around, GxWxBxGx is certain to give pleasure to your hunger. I hadn't heard about this band until recently. The band name sounds kinda silly, but that doesn't really matter because this band is pretty good actually. They use Drum Programming and I think they manage to pull them off pretty good. The only really annoying thing about the drums (like most drum machine based bands) is when they blast, that's when you really can hear it's programmed drums. I don't blame them though, i also use drum Programming on my band and I know how hard it is to program drums and to make them sound real. But overall, the drums are pretty good for being programmed. Vocals are great; Ranging from sick gutturals and grunts. A great mixture of different styles which I really like. I think anyone who is into Brutal Death Metal and goregrind can enjoy this album. It just has something that I feel can attract anyone who is into brutal music. Myspace.com/grindhead

INSECT WARFARE – Endless Execution thru Violent Restitution
I'm sorry for being such a slow fuck reviewing this CD. Well, well.. Better late then never I guess. Hehe. I like this release, it's got everything: blasts, some breakdowns, variable vocals and virulent production. Perfectly fitting for their style! I think this release is something every grindcore fan can enjoy, it's fucking tremendous. Insect Warfare has effectively fused their oldschool grindcore style with clarity to create an album that is gritty despite it’s rough production. ‘Endless Exectution Thru Violent Restitution’ is an album that worships grindcore what with somber, crusty clamoring raunchy melody, putrid grunts and screams, and killer riffs shredding alongside a powerhouse rhythm section. Truely in vain of Napalm Death and Terrorizer! If you havent got a copy of this one, So stop reading this damned review already and get yourself ‘Endless Exectution Thru Violent Restitution'!!
HEMORRHOIDAL ANAL SUFFERING - Insalubrious worship
JeSus of Parkinson Wankfist Pleasures hooked me up with this cd and I had no clue who this fucker is. This is drum machine driven goregrind from Brazil. With the band name like HEMORRHOIDAL ANAL SUFFERING and knowing that this guy is from Brazil i am expecting some sickening goregrind like I Shit On Your Face, Gory Gruesome, Lymphatic Phlegm etc.. Sorry but, i got disappointed. The first things that strikes me is the guitar sound. It sounds just like he plugged the guitar into a distortion pedal, and then directly into the computer. It's not heavy in any way, and it's very sharp and the sound is very Thin. Definitely something he should work on. I really don't know what to think of the riffage either. Sometimes it's decent, sometimes it's pretty boring. The song structure is pretty chaotic. To be honest I have a very hard time remembering any of the riffs. It kinda feels like he just play riff, after riff, after riff. No really structure behind it. I know plenty of bands that manage to pull that shit off, but this dude just can't. Not in my oppinion that is. All these riffs are either very fast, fast or midpaced. Some riffs don’t even fit in at all, some even sounds like a bad combination between punkrock and black metal. And he definitely needs to tune down the guitar a step or two. This is the kind of goregrind which just does not create much enthusiasm in me. The vocals are utterly sickening and the songs all right, but it just misses something, there is just no great feeling here. I guess this was just not my cup of tea.
INTESTINAL DISGORGE & MOTHERPIG - ADP for Dummies
Here comes INTESTINAL DISGORGE, one of the sickest goregrind acts around, sharing a split CD with Bosnia's MOTHERPIG. It’s the first I heard of this last one, so… let’s go! When i was about to put this CD in the player i was expecting the same sick scatological noise goregrind, but INTESTINAL DISGORE is heavier on this shit if i compare this to their previous releases. They still play the same kind of excellent and catchy mixture reminding of a nice mix between Decomposing Serenity, Gut, Dismembered Fetus, Sorethroat and even the goregrind legends LDOH! Vocals are fucking funny and sick; still i hate those bitch screams! It fucking annoys me. haha. But i love the Pabaroti-ish vocals. hahaha! This is quite uneasy listening goregrindnoise, but still it's very fresh and straightforward compared to all the new bands around today. This band I now introduce is called MOTHERPIG. This is a great crust punk from Bosnia. I like MOTHERPIG, but unfortunately my background of this style is very limited which doesn’t make it easy for me to listen to this side of this split a lot. Alright, gonna try and sum it all up now. It's going to be really interesting to hear what MOTHERPIG is going to record after this split since this pretty much is a cd that shows the progress of a bands birth up to today. Looking forward for the split with the mincecore gods Agathocles!!
EBOLIE split MAXIMUM PERVERSION - Fuck ya Ears, Drink Ya Beers
No surprise here, these Aussie fuckers, Ebolie continue to play their own brand of diverse Aussie grind. From a musical standpoint this is good as it has structure and though the riffs change up a bit it always stays consitent. In my opinion it would be needless to draw comparisons here, as Ebolie really have their own sound. The production is good and the band meshes quite well together as well the songs are well structured and performed good. The vocals have gotten sicker as well and has a bit more putrid and agressive feel to them than before. He might although not be the most diverse one I've heard, but he sure has the balls at the right place! Maximum Perversion is a grind band that started around 1996. I had never heard anything from them until I actually got the disc in the mail. This is a good production and this release has power! The guitar sound is nice and rough, but the overall sound is heavy! Just the right sound for this band! Nice blast parts, some parts are groovy hardcore parts which I do like, mixed in good with some slower parts which sound really awesome! I can’t find a good band to compare this band with! It’s great!! Everyone who is into grindcore with a heavy sound and a nice mixture between rapid and slower passages will not do anything wrong with this split CD. Fuck ya Ears!!!! Contact Grindhead.
ANUS BRIGADE - Promo 2006
10 tracks of groovy gore grind in heavily influenced by Plasma & CBT. They’re among the purest, sludgier, dirtiest bulldozing grind gore you get in cumming out of Germany today. The style is totally German (1-2 tempos and toilet flush/watery vocals), but absolutely not boring. A solid recording and a lot of clearly distinguishable riffs make this demo one of the best out. Great watery vocals and mosh pit chugs makes the experience real neat. Not very original per se but at least we have some good replacement for Ground stomping vulgar shit of the violent kind. I really love the track called "Erbswurstpolka". I dont know what the fuck it is. Check these fuckers out. Check them out at MyASSpace!!!!
MEXICARNE - 2008 mexicarne demo
This stuff is really nice goregrind with a clear intent to be done the putrid way. Songs are kept at a pretty fast pace and relatively short, most of the time around 1 minute and a half. Song-writing is tight; the band sounds pretty dynamic only using very simple but effective, raw and in-your-face riffs that will fuck you. Vocals from low pitch-shifted piggy styled growls to ripping pig squeals. All in all, this band has lot of potential, check em out!
JIG AI - Katana Orgy
I've been a fan of this band since their groundbreaking release "Jig Ai" courtesy of Bizaare Leprous Productions - Czech Republic, a label that carry hundreds of good high potential grindcore / goregrind bands around the world. This CD includes 20 songs in 34 minutes, if you've heard their previous album, this one won't let you down at all, aggressive goregrind with ear sodomizing pig squeals, violent riffs and hyperfast drum works! Jig Ai has effectively fused their dynamic Goregrind style with clarity to create an album that is gritty despite its polished production. This is a perfect accompaniment for a sex extravaganza featuring tons of booze, weed, and a Samurai. haha! Get yourself a 'Katana Orgy'!
2 MINUTA DREKA - let’s start porn in the name of gore
2 Minutes of Shit!!! This is crusty porno grind at it’s most violent form from Italy. This CD is definitely a piece of music that satisfies all our craving for nasty porn grind - fast guitars, pummeling drums and utterly sickening pitchshifted vocals courtesy of Brandy. (He is also behind Sonic Arse tapes, Grindblock, Penis Enlargement and shitloads more, indeed a grind freak!) They're a very individual band from a time; where there were about 9234746464 bands playing grind worldwide. They created a piece of obscure grinding atrocity on their own, and that's how it sounds like. Definitely something you'll hardly experience today... Porn grind with touch of crust! "lets start a porn in the name of gore" contains 21 tracks, good usage of samples, plus covers from great acts like Fear of God, Meatshits and Haemorrhage. Overall, simply a must have! Recommended as fuck! This is available through Halflife Records. Check out the interview as well. www.2minutadreka.com
LAMAW - Exploding Cranial Mutilation
Here's a great slab of Panabo Death Metal Sickness! Another band hailing from Panabo City, Philippines. Much groovier than Disastrous. This demo contains 3 tracks of unrelenting guttural madness.. It's well recorded, brutal, violent, all the things you could want in a slam/death release. My only complain is that it's too short - it left me wanting more! A full length from these guys would be great! Currently, Lamaw are awaiting the release of a 4 way split with fellow Filipino bands, later to be released under self digested records. So I'll keep hoping for that to happen. It's been a looooooong time since this split is planned, i dont know what the fucked happened to it. Who knows? So for now, check out “Exploding Cranial Mutilation” to get a taste of what these guys has to offer. Recommended to fans of slam/guttural death metal Carnivore Diprosopous- , Guttural Engoregment, perhaps Devourment, and so on.
MAGISTRAL FLATULENCES - Le Grindcore C'est Comme Le Sperme Sa Sort Des Couilles
This is a one man drum machine fueled porno gore grind brought to you by Gis aka OMEGA - ETRON, who's also behind the great label called SMYT RECORDS!! Ok then, the music is inspired by goregrind heavyweights such as Abrosanie Bogom and CBT French Magistral Flatulences doesn't break any new ground with "Le Grindcore C'est Comme Le Sperme Sa Sort Des Couilles" but despite of a perhaps somewhat anonymous sound the band still has quite a bit to offer. Magistral Flatulences does little to hide its profound adoration for groovy goregrind, however he's able to vary the music in a satisfactory manner so it doesn't come across as being just another clone. This is mainly thanks to the vocal variations which is very present in the soundscape and this certainly help to give the music some identity of its own. "Le Grindcore C'est Comme Le Sperme Sa Sort Des Couilles" may not be anything revolutionary but none the less it's still an album that lies somewhere along the average and above. Check out other great releases from MxFx like "Mini Size, Maxi Pleasures" and the Split with Vomit Slit (re-release by yours truly, Bituka Records)
EMBALMING THEATRE/HACKSAW SURGERY - D-composition
I have always been a big Embalming Theatre fan since "Sweet Chainsaw Melodies. As usual, The band delivers a very particular blend of grind and death metal, really basic but effective. This cd actually contains a Napalm Death cover version, great shit! If you dont know Embaliming Theatre, then what the fuck are you?? I gonna make this review short, this is very nice, simplistic death/grind and of course with tons of gore. Now we got this drum machine driven band, Hacksaw Surgery, second side of the split release... Somewhat wilder, more crazed than Embalming Theatre, pretty similar although perhaps slightly melodic.. Musically Hacksaw Surgery makes a clear attempt at perforating your ears with their material here and well, they actually do a pretty swell job at it! I wouldn't say this is something new, but I'm sure it's one of the most authentic death/grind I've heard recentl, Available through Grindhead Records.
SOUND YOUR ALARM
Here's another great Dbeat band influenced by Disclose. Then again, I would like to thank Gis (Cheers bro!) for sending me this magnificent CD! As stated, Sound Your Alarm is Anti - State, Anti - Religion - No Gods, No Master, all songs are about capitalism and the shitty acts alike. So you know what to expect from this band. All the instruments are executed well, the vocals reminds me of a local band, Archi of Guerra Mundial! Aggressive and violent gruntings! Great! My only comment is, the production suffers alot, but still heavy and audible. This cd includes a poster. Grab this shit! www.smytrecords.com
EPICRISE - Amigo's Contraception
8 tracks of Energetic crusty grind core! All instruments are produced pretty clear and there are some really outstanding breaks in there – breaks so awesome, they make your head bang and crave for more! Especially "Ja Jebie Dziesiec“is a song you just can't get enough of!! Anyone into Grindcore, especially the ones favouring bands of the likes of Phobia should listen to this really well done piece of rotteness! Check out the Rot cover as well! www.myspace.com/epicrise
DESTRUCTIVE EXPLOSION OF ANAL GARLAND - Cutterclit
This is another Czech band, Goregrind in full blistering violence, Thick heavy tone of guitars, insane riffs, speedy drums, with blasts and some groovy, Ahumado Granujo catchy parts. The vocals on here are fucking disgusting, lots of sick voices and they are varied well, there is low bullfrog sounding voices and higher pukey burps, you can hear voices that are reminiscent of Pigsty, MFAGCOQD and even Veprelec of Ahumado Granujo. The vocals are layered and traded like mad, it's exactly how i like hearing goregrind vocals.. Diverse and retarded as fuck! The production is very nice just like the other Bizaare Leprous releases, it has a cool layout none the less with some cunts and tits and even a fly which no album is truly complete without. Hahaha. The artwork is some kind of sketch/draft or something.. This is the only cd i saw that has this kind of artwork.. Raw as fuck!! Overall, this is an magnificent cd, the band delivers this stuff with assurance and determined strength, in a nice gory and chunky way, the sound production is clear and well-defined... Everything comes with a very special, perverted sense of humour too, titles like 'Uterus´s Cheesecake' , 'When Your Pussy is Too Dry, Just Use Some Solvina' , 'Crabs Dont Fet, my Balls Got sweat' and 'Tearing up her Cavity With my Rabity'.. I am finding myself increasingly more enthralled with each listen, I am beginning to think an interview might not be out of the question here. Mandatory listening for every goregrind freaks out there!
GORESLUTS - Shinji Outercourse
This mcd contains 5 tracks putrid bath of bile, and this time we got a real drummer, goddammit! They spew out mercilessly goregrind, they are extremely energetic. Guitars are fast and heavy and the drumming varries from very fast blasts to catchy Ahumado Granujo-type midtempos. Vocals are deep grunts and high pitched screams! Definitely a must have!
EYETOFUCK/PUTRID WHORE - Drufuked and Pornified
Wasting no time, Eyetofuk set the scene for this 2 way split by ripping straight into some simple electropornscumgrind. I never heard this band before, and it didnt take long to notice that musically this stuff is one great example how electro grind would sound. Simple yet engaging porn/goregrind sounds with relatively electro feel might give people the urge to dance like an idiot. Influences such as Libido Airbag and Anal Probe Android can't be denied, even though these guys have found their own stylistic way. The raging drum programming immediately find their way into ones ears, as well as the vocals, rather deep and gurgled than anything else, do. The guitars play fast, thrashy riffs, sometimes mixed up with typical breaks, encouraging us maniacs to fuck the shit out of our fuckin' heads! Overall, Eyetofuk is pretty good, but nothing groundbreaking though. Suggested to anyone into Libido Airbag and the goodies alike.. Putrid Whore does not play goregrind despite my expectations. The cover art is pure female mortification and all the porn thing makes one believe it but in general the guitar riffs are mostly bold Brutal Death with some slam and a bunch of accelerations than sludgy sick grind. Concerning the sound quality, I've to say that I'm impressed, a really good recording, no swampy sound or something else that would reduce the joy of listening to "Pornified”, Sick freaks should definitely keep an eye on this one! Available thru Grindhead.
URINE FESTIVAL - Of a Hermaphroditic Enema & Urophilic Pissparty Pleasure
This 2piece band of ex-Last Days of Humanity member Marc Palmen... Holland seems to be one of the best places for sewer goregrind! Bands like Last Days of Humanity to Intumescence, Stoma, Fecevomitatie, Biocyst, Carnival Of Carnage, and shitloads more! Urine Festival is not an exemption. 66 tracks/40 minutes of sick goregrind noise! The overall feel of Urine Festival is simply really close to Last Days of Humanity except with a drum machine and flushing toilet vocals. This is a perfect example what Dutch gore grind sounds like. You have something maybe not as perfect as Last Days of Humanity in my opinion, but something that will fill up some piece of the empty spot that LDOH left when they decided to call it quits. This is definitely a must have for Noisecore/Goregrind freaks!
SARCOPHAGA CARNARIA - ... Of Flies And Men
When I first listened to this album, I could immediately hear the influence of Cock and Ball Torture, Rompeprop, Lymphatic Phlegm, and somehow, Engorged. Sarcophaga Canaria has the blow to the stomach effect that Cock and Ball Torture would give you in the first few seconds of hearing them, the musical satire stylings of Rompeprop, the repugnant gut-wrenching sickness of Lymphatic Phlegm and Engorged, chugy riffs that resemble CBT. Although none of the songs on this album run a second over three minutes, Sarcophaga Carnaria manage to leave the listener with a sense of satisfaction. it’s enough to get your fix and move on to the next track. I also appreciate the fact that the samples used on this recording are not ridiculously long, and if they are a bit lengthy, you are given the ability to skip to the next track and hear the song for which it serves as an introduction. The guitars mercilessly shred and rip at all the right times. Drum Programming are the pummeling that go hand in hand with the penetration of a broken glass to a fresh cunt! As a vocalist myself, i really appreciate the gurgled vocals, by the time you’re through with your first spin, you’ll want to hear it all over again. I totally recommend this band to all goregrind freaks out there. This album won’t disappoint!
KOTS DONOR - Demo 2008
Much like Tumour this is raw and noisy, grotesque goregrind, another clear offshot of Last Days of Humanity. Non-stop sickening and blasting drum programs, some of the most sickening, splattery, watery - like vocal effects to ever grace the surface! This stays within the realm of gorenoise musically, there are no scales or slaming chug riffs and its just a noisy gore grind at its sickest form! Looking forward to the Full Length!
DISASTROUS - Embalmed and Bleed
Panabo City's Guttural Death Metal Disastrous is back with their latest demo "Embalmed and Bleed". This demo contains 3 tracks of pounding brutal death metal. Ultra Gutturals courtesy of Delon, which also vomits for the band Lamaw. Guitars are heavy and sharp, Drums are good but get buried under the guitars. This will appeal to fans of the more Slamming and Guttural Death Metal bands, like Artery Eruption for example. Looking forward for the Full Length. These fuckers are great, offers us loads of Emperador, Weed and the mighty Kamansi (Variety of Jackfruit) when we last visited Panabo City. Hehe..
GOREVENT - Endless Human Hunting
For those of you who aren't familiar with them, they're from Japan, so you know what's up, Slam Death galore! BEEN a fan of this genre, but it tends to grow a bit monotonous after listening bands with same styles. Gorevent is the epitome of Devourment, Guttural Engorgement and Artery Eruption. Every song follows a basic pattern, slam, breakdowns, slam, slam... This is the basic formula here and it's repeated throughout the 4 tracks that constitute this demo. The problem is, there are atleast 9939 bands playing the same style way better than they do. Vocals is sick by the way, I’ve got nothing more to add.*yawn*
BIO - Crisis
This demo is just excellent! Bio isn't a common band; I'm not sure how to define their stuff. I think they play crusty grindcore with tons of dbeat for sure. Guitars are sharps, fucking raw and heavy all the time. Tempos are mostly moderate and much diversified, going together with many chugy guitar parts... But they always return to a grindcore basis, with fast rythms, thrashing riffs, and a few blasts too. Vocals are great, deep grunts and high screams. Just totally intense, a must for crust grind addict.
TINNER - Harder, Faster
Never heard these guys before, shitload of putrid thanks goes out to Gis of SMYTR for sending me this cd. This album contains 15 tracks and it seems very inspired by Disfear, Disclose and other Dbeat bands. Vocals are raped in 2 ways, shrieking vocals and a few low growling parts as well... Violent speed & tons of Dbeat crust in 15 relatively short songs. Downtuned riffs and overall a really nice and thick, grinding heavy sound. If you dig great stuff cumming out from Disfear, Tinner is definitely for you...
TINNER - You Wanted the Best
After listening to "Harder, Faster", Tinner previous attack released in 2007, I somehow knew that there was something extraordinary waiting to be unleashed, waiting to strike with full blistering violence. And even if 2008 has just started, I dare to claim that "You Wanted The Best" is definitely among the best releases of this year comming out of Show Me Your Tits Records, if not among, the best ever. 12 tracks highly influenced by Disclose, "You Wanted The Best" is an excellent album that combines the most essential elements of d beat/crust – Violent, excellent musicianship and almost possessed intensity. This is great D beat dementia pressed on plastic, which is mostly d beat drumming and faster bits, theres always alot of catchyness to their songs and they are really easy to learn though my execution is absolutely terrible. There is good use of dual vocals always with this band, a grindcorish screams and deep growls. I cant figure out what these fuckers are into lyrically and conceptually, because the lyrics and titles are not written in english, I think they mostly sing about life and people from a critical point of view, about lack of respect, needlessly trying to fit in and generaly about how stupid we are. Overall, the album offers a great dbeat crust experience. Check out the BEHERIT logo.. haha.. Available thru the French label SHOW ME YOUR TITS RECORDS! Buy or die, Fuckers!
GENITAL WARTS - Intense Ejaculation of a Perverted Slut
It's been a long period for me filled with School Stuff, Thesis, On The Job Training, Splatter Project, my bands and similar obligative shits that has hindered me from reviewing on Guttural Sickness. I would first like to say to everyone that has sent/gave their material/s to me for review that I'm truely sorry that I have had you all kept waiting. This band is formed by Jay, Vocalist of the defunct band 56 STABWOUNDS. I received this slab of brutal death metal not long ago, Jay/Vocals handed this to me last time we met at Davao City and I have been listening to it a couple of times before I now decided that I would choose to review since these guys have been waiting long enough for my sorry ass to review their Demo. Ok here we go, "Intense Ejaculation of a Perverted Slut" contains 4 tracks of Groovy Death Metal. Nothing new musically, this is totally 100 % Soils of Fate worship!!! Wont really break any new ground, but it's pretty ok for what it is. Vocals are fucking disgusting, worth comparing to Henk/Soils of Fate. Even the song structure and vocal structure are 100 % Soils of Fate. Jay is one of the sickest vocals i heard cumming of the Philippines so far and actually, I am really amazed. Genital Warts severs from the local death metal acts, this is the first time i heard a local band play this kind of death metal. Great (blow)Job!!! I am calling the attention of Labels out there, this band is worth checking out!!! I am also calling the attention of bitches and whores, beware of this motherfuckers! Haha, dont be fooled how Jay aka Ultraman looks, he's a perverted manwhore!! You'll experience a "Intense Ejaculation of a Perverted Slut". Like i have said earlier, this band is 100% Soils of Fate worship.. You should check this band out if you're into Groovy Death Metal.
BIOLOGICAL MONSTROSITY - Demo
This is a One man goregrind band hailing from Canada! This guy come at you very feirce & highly intense. He play a very groovy & putrid style of goregrind music. I like this style of grind that a lot of newer bands have been playing lately. He have a very thick & crusty gore groove in his music a lot, which I really dig. The music just barrells you over & keep kicking the shit out of you. The vocals are done in a combined style of ultra low gurgles with some insane watery vocals. If your into bands like Plasma, Rompeprop, Anus Brigade then your going to love this band!!! Watch out for the split with Stoma and Magistral Flatulences later on Rotten Roll Rex!
IMPOTENCE TRICHOMONAD - Demo 2008
Yet another great goregrind band emerging from the pits of the rising sun, I wasn't quite sure what I was going to get when I popped this CD in. But I was digging what I heard. These Japanese sickos have delivered their sickness with some ultra low end & brutal old school goregrind. There are some slight touches of crust elements present all through out the music too. The vocals are done in a mid to low ranged thick vacuums & some purulent burping. All the instruments are well performed. The music has a lot of high speed adrenaline flowing all through out it. These guys are going to dominate the scene soon if they keep releasing amazing music like this! Watch out for the 7" split with the italian porn grinders, 2 Minuta Dreka and the split with Phlegm Thrower (Who?). Check this out!
PROCTALGIA Consuming the Regurgitated Entrails
One of my favorite bands hailing from the Philippines! Here's a full album for this Filipino band into sick, cacophonous, fucked up gore grind/noise! This is downright depraved shit we've got here. Songs are in authentic fact are ruthless, horrible and cluttered with vocals adding a gross fetid reek to the whole thing. The vocals are still similar to the sound of rancid juices of down the sinkhole, with a sound so heavily distorted it groans and strains the recording equipment to red hearing levels. This CD is total insanity, just one torment of a severe, grinding ride! This whole album has barely any distinct guitar riff in it, just a frenzied maelstrom of low-tuned string pulp. Cover art done by Lou Rousconi. . For fuckers who are tired of hearing merely the same Ultra brooooootal slamming shit swarming the Philippine scene, music that is being played under different band names could also give this relatively unconventional band a listen. A nice treat for noise gore grind lovers everywhere! Myspace.com/proctalgia
3 WAYS TO DEPREVATION
Great addition to the scene, Bukkake Lovers Production is already releasing their first ejaculation with this insane 3 way split, hymns from Goregatron, Lord Piggy and Pigto. The title "3 ways to deprevation" is sounding nevertheless very promisingly for goregrind bands, especially because the latex whore on the cover is also a feast for the eyes. What can we expect from this split? Tons of Female mortification i guess..This cd comes with 15 tracks (5 tracks from each band) of a very good Gore Grind!! First band we got here is Goregatron, they didn't create something revolutionary, something new, but rather created groovy goregrind that will tear apart your entrails for sure! Highly recommended stuff, check 'em out! Next band is Lord Piggy. Lord Piggy are playing porno grind with at least some death metal influences, mainly recognizeable in their vocal and guitar performance, but this is definitely not bad or wrong here. The only thing I have left to say is check these fuckers out! What we have here is the Mexican porno goregrinders, PIGTO. I already reviewed "Muddy Bodies of Semen and Blood" on the 3rd issue, if you heard their previous work, this shit wont disappoint! I got nothing more to add. This cd is limited to 100 copies. i got #20. Act fast motherfuckers!!!
MIXOMATOSIS - 90 - 2006 Goregrind Live
Spanish freaks are back with their violent insane grinding musick. After several years of waiting, this slab of gore has finally been unleashed. This latest ejaculation caters 34 tracks of pure utter gore grind dementia! This cd is a collection of recordings that has taken place between 1990 and 2006. This is surely a great stuff, persistently on the threshold of pure gore grind music. If you missed other Mixomatosis' releases, i recommend this cd! Buy or get fucked!
SEPTIGORE #6, #7, #8, #14
Eric keeps on releasing his underground publication with the same conventional state of mind: Chaotic, raw and old school cut and paste format! I got these bizarre zine thru trade with him. I'll just do them all at once... This zine is dedicated to the most perverse, misanthropic, nihilistic and obscure gore grind, grind core, black metal, death, doom and any other genres in between. The interviews are short but xxxtremely sweet. What else to say? This is probably the best gore grind fanzine I've had to gratification to comprehend so far... The editor is into trading tapes / CD / DVD and vinyl all over the world, so you will likely cross deeply ambiguous names you didn't know before... Those who think the old styled underground is too predictable and dull should keep their eyes opened... They probably didn't look at the right place or search enough. Write now!!

I heard about this fanzine more than a few times, but I'm only able to read it now. Thanks to Joselito of Noise Attack Zine for handing me a copy of this zine. Quite surprisingly the content is very much focused to grind core genre. This is the fifth issue for this fine Polish zine, a4 pro printed format, top notch content... Interviews with Squash Bowels, Splitter, Suppository, Gonorrhea Pussy, Ingrowing, Artery Eruption, Sakatat and loads more! Layout wise, pretty reminds me of Extreme Martin’s Critical Situation zine. (This happens to be also from AmsTERRORdoom). I strongly recommend this zine to all grind fiends out there. Write to gowegan@poczta.fm or if you’re in the community, visit myspace.com/losalamoszine
IMPACT DRIll #3
Well, actually it's pretty distinctive in that it's got the usual brutal band interviews and record reviews but what I denote is that on the other hand it's also tremendously well-written... This one is from Turkey edited by Semih Orhan of the grind core band SAKATAT; A4 computerized format. There are also alot of reviews which are all very comprehensive; a fair share of it is grind shit too... Just a concrete zine with a lot of work put into it... Interviews with Blood, Dead Infection, I Shit on Your Face and the widespread interview with fellow zinesters; Forgotten Chapel, Shrunken and Mummified & Sonic Splendour zine.

To conclude this view, I can say this fanzine might be interesting for big fans of current underground supporters of brutal music of any kind.

Very nice zine, great musical taste, from crust, powerviolence to grind, no filler, 100 percent great succulent content... This zine is edited by Marco, which also happens that plays in the band, Vex. What to expect? Ok, I got to divulge some of these articles like the ones about Philippine politics kind of went over my head! This issue is pretty thick, abounding more than 36 pages, so there's a decent amount of interesting stuff to be found throughout. (I stumble on 36 pages ‘thick’ because the postage rate is a pain in the ass!! Haha, so i uphold the minimalistic approach to my zine.. hehe) This issue include interviews with Guided Cradle, Paraconflict, Guerra Mundial, Grenzlinie, Chosen by God plus shitloads of artwork, articles, band bios and more!

This is one of the most interesting local zines around, devoted to Grind core, Gore grind and other noisy shit that irritate your neighbors.

Detrimentum, The Petualangan Sherina, Devourment, Stench of Dismemberment & Down from The Wound. Lots of grind & death cd reviews plus the Play fast or Don’t Festival.

VEX – Capitalism is Cannibalism
What we got here is a immense band hailing from the Philippines. They are playing some ear sodomizing crust grind attack style with plenty of socio-political influences, a nice mixture of technical playing skills, grind, crust, hardcore and just enough filthiness and vulgar to make this a enjoyable listening experience. This promo was premeditated to showcase their sound and optimistically attract label interest. I suppose they will be signed soon if not already as they are without a doubt talented musicians. This is decent stuff, at least much better than “Cum and Taste our Revenge”. But to their lyrical standpoint, this kind of stuff is not full enough to stir up my interest for a long time... Though I respect them for what they are doing... Anyway, the recording has a much better sound that lets you appreciate better the guitars exertion and the intense nauseating vocals, made up of viscera vomiting deep grunts and the other one is really disturbing squeals and screams!! This is definitely a degenerate album that is guaranteed to perforate your ears and surely will fuck you up! These guys are well worth checking out and deserve much attention, which I’m sure they will surely get! So if destructive, vigorous, belligerent crusty grindcore is your criterion, then you absolutely should pay attention to these motherfuckers! Mandatory listening for grind/crust freaks out there!!!!!!!!!!!! Check out the interview as well
for more information.
GUERRA MUNDIAL – Demo 2008
Finally, debut studio demo from this d-beat mafia from the Philippines, after seeing these guys raping the stage for several times I was looking forward to hearing more stuff from this band, so I am glad to see they didn’t give up and released a studio recording! This is what I am talking about; I mean not because you are into diy stuff and shit, you’ll disregard the quality of your material. For me, DIY doesn’t necessarily mean recording stuff just for the hell of it, the technology's present and ahead of you to be used and misused. Why not use it? I mean there's no excuse to act as if you're stuck in the 80's. In my opinion, the quality of the material they were able to come up with was off because it's expensive to record during that time and their gadgets were ancient. (Well, if you have read my previous issue, you should have noticed that I already mentioned this shit.. Ha,ha!) I bet you know what I am talking about. If not, then fuck go yourself!!!!!!Guerra Mundial a shredding d beat crust core without any compromise. Everything is just awesome, near to perfection!!! All the instruments are well executed, vocals are aggressive as fuck! Check out the split with Gorgonized Dorks released by the poorest label, Bituka Records. Haha! Check out the interview for more information..
SANGKAY - Demo
Even though I don’t have a certain idea about accurate explanation of ‘Waray crust grind’, I am sure it is what you get when synthetically impregnate Crust/grind with semen from people hailing from Samar. Hehe. Archie from Guerra Mundial gave me a copy of this cd along with his bands demo. Another outburst of violence and hatred is spitted out from the Philippine peninsula. These fuckers are hailing from Calbayog, Samar. This demo contains 5 tracks of crust grind with melodic feel. This isn’t really ground (Should I say groin?) breaking stuff but if you leave around manila area, go and see them live, I am sure you wont be disappointed. Tating_Chow@yahoo.com
NO CASH!! NO THRASH!!! JUST NOISE!!!!
Reviewing a split like this one is always a pain in the ass but this one will be easy since there is nothing much to say about it for the fact this split contains good noise bands; Dosa, Permanent Death and To Die. 16 tracks of pure cacophonous musick! This split with semi pro printed cover, limited to 50 copies and I got #16. This is released by jerkoff records.

KZ9 – Invasion of the Wereniggers
I am not so sure if these guys have been around for a long time but I wasn’t aware of them until I received this cd all along with 2 other releases coming from them and im glad to have this shit! These Italians plays noise core. I pretty much enjoy this album however I found some weak points in the mixing, particularly the vocal sound that is not strong enough which inevitably affect the gratification you get from these noises. Nonetheless, it is the music that counts and without a doubt, KZ9 is good at it. Get this shit thru the band or you can get in touch with Smell The Stench. Limited to 70 copies! www.smellthestench.net or contact the band thru www.myspace.com/lagerdistermino
KZ9 – Gott, Nigger and Wurstel
Reviewing this tape (But I got a cdr master instead of tape plus a cover, less postage rate!) has been a thorny task I had it spinning quite a lot of times before formulating a truthful analysis. First off, the positive aspects are several: I sort of liked layout and aesthetics, and honestly speaking, a vast step forward has been made. Now all the songs are clearly evident, an unambiguous character has been reached and the vocals have a nice raucous range that go from spittle to roar. What I consider as being so special about “Gott, Nigger and Wurstel“is the atmosphere it creates, the feelings that are summoned. I had to take a couple of listening in order to fully comprehend the convolution of this magnum opus; it's not enough to simply take it as “music” it's to a certain degree a monument of absolute austerity and total cacophonous masterpiece. An ep that abominate the conventional music, which truly evokes total blistering violence and that offers you an ear sodomizing experience...

STICKOXYDAL - The Perverted Position of Interiors
There’s nothing better than getting a CD that is utterly unknown to you and it totally rip your face off. This is a prime example fuckos. Stickoxydal is a 3-piece band hailing from Belarus (i dont know where the fuck this is though. haha) and this is their debut disc. It's a fucking blast from finish to end, 14 songs in 23 minutes. Thankfully all the songs are short so they don’t stagnate with excess playing time. To try and describe it I would say it’s like gore grind mixed with the intensity of death metal. This cd doesn’t have the same gore grind assault in terms of unrelenting blasting but this fuckers managed to incorporate some head banging catchy d-beat sections in there musick.
This album certainly won’t disappoint. For fans of Hemdale and CBT. Not much more to add really, another great release from BLP that you should get.

5-way split - Reduce the Human Breed in Pieces of Meat
Show me Your Tits Records is a French label dedicated to support broad range of music; goregrind/dbeat/crust/deathmetal/cybergrind etc. Gis is a really supportive guy and you have to contact him at once. "Reduce the Human Breed in Pieces of Meat" is a 5-way split/compilation whatever you want to call it. 45 minute split excreted 35 tracks from 5 disgusting drum machine goregrindnoise bands - Vomit Slit, Oral Mutilation, Snuff Fetish, Bacterial Vaginosis and Fetus Omelet. Here we go... Vomit Slit is a 2-piece drum machine fueled band playing ultra sick gore grind from UK. Burps are putrid gurgles and some sporadic inhuman gurgling growls and those are just great. My own personal favorite has to be Track 5 "Stillborn Fuckchild". hehehe. Oral Mutilation is a one-man gore grind band from Netherlands. Your probably thinking not another shitty bedroom gore grind band but Oral Mutilation is better than that! I really appreciate is that Oral Mutilation don’t exploit "hyper blasts". I think that can only sound good if it's a real drummer that does it. Hehe. Snuff Fetish, this noise/grind band that is total fucking raw and violent as fuck! This is definitely filthy like some hardworking whores vaginal yeast infection! Vocals are just disgusting, made up of deep diarrhea grunts and loads of high pitched shrieks, reminds me alot of Intestinal Disgorge (Those 'bitch sreams' irritate me a lot. haha). Last couples of songs fall short and start sounding repetitive but still enough to perforate your ears! Bacterial Vaginosis is definitely basic, harsh and violent porno grind. This band is good at what they do. Fetus Omelet, Pretty chaotic, saturating, bordering on grind-noise, but also entangled in some more death metal patterns... Recommended!

INFERNAL REVULSION - Devastate Under Hallucination
Well what can I say about Infernal Revulsion, I had been enjoying their demo "Loathsome Breeding Of Virulent Revolt", and finally their debut album is released. For those of you who aren't familiar with them, they're from Japan, so you know what's up, influences from Devourment, Dying Fetus, Soils of Fate.. The CD is composed of 8 songs that last 23 minutes, a little short but well nonetheless. Musically the material is very groove orientated, similar to fellow countrymen Disconformity, Gorevent and Glossectomy. For those of you that think that brutal death metal has become strenuous and predictable, Infernal Revulsion are here to prove otherwise. No much more to add really, Definitely a must have.

VULVULATOR - Obscenario (2007)
This cd contains 27 minutes of Groovy Gore grind with blasting and mid tempo parts, carrying influences of CBT, 'prop and goodies alike, The band delivers this stuff with assurance and determined strength, in a nice grinding and chunky way, the sound production is clear and well defined... You aren’t going to get anything new musically. But you will get repugnant Gore/Porn grind fun. Others who are tired of hearing merely the same grind music being played under different band names could also give this relatively eccentric band a shot.

COMMON GRAVE - Dehumanized
Yet another CD that i had no idea was being sent, but i was very happy to see it and even happier when i heard it. I didn't know anything about Common Grave before popping in this CD, but you can count me as a fan now though! Old school Death Metal influences are cleverly entwined in the music of this awesome band! This CD contains 10 tracks (36 minutes) and displays unrelenting death metal, heavily influenced by mighty Suffocation and Cannibal Corpse! All the NYDM freaks will have a feast granted with this release, the music its heavy and tight! This is their 2nd full length and i'm sure other one will be just as good. The overall sound is great with all the instruments cutting through in the mix, musically nothing different, but I'd say anyone into NYDM will be happy hearing this anyway, I for one am!

SYPHILIC - Erotishock Therapy
This is the most recent ejaculation of the brutal and extreme label Cephalic Records, Czech Republic. Syphilic excreted 12 drunken mugging of sickest brutal death metal, everything about with an implausible force! Tremendously violent! This album has left me without word since it is simply vicious, intense and does not leave even a minute for contemplation, but with a little touch of technicality. The vocals have gotten sicker as well and have a bit more fetid and hostile feel to them than before making Brian one of my favorite vocalists. (He’s also from Gutrot and Mutilated) Furthermore, there are four-guest vocalist; Justin of Orchidectomy, Blue and Randy from Guttural Secrete, Adam of Goratory and Darek (I don’t know where the fuck is he from though, hehehehe), which also adds positively to the diversity of the songs. The production is simple and to the point, yet still sounds tight and allows every characteristic of the bands resonance to come across. The guitars are heavy, as they need to be, yet still have a lot of clarity. It’s funny to see the Cover art! The fat dude looks like me in some way. Hahaha! To sum it up, “Erotishock Therapy” may not contribute with anything unheard but it surely does offer us a good dose of massive brutal death metal, definitely a good album to have.

DESTRUCTIVE EXPLOSION OF ANAL GARLAND - Sealing of the vagina by sewer lid
The Czech Republic is definitely one of the greatest places for brutal music, especially grind. This is total insanity and brutality in purest form! Brought to the world by the sickest gore grind label Bizarre Leprous Productions (Cheers Roman!) Together with Mincing Fury And Guttural Clamour of Queers Decay, these guys have the weirdest name ever! hehehe. If you know very little about the members that make up this band you'll probably wonder where the songwriting prowess comes from? But if I told you that this band was made up of members of Negligent Collateral Collapse you'd probably understand why these guys write such killer songs. For those unfamiliar with the work of these fuckers they spew out ruthless gore grind, they are extremely energetic. Guitars are fast and heavy and the drumming varies from very fast blasts to catchy Ahumado Granujo-type midtempos. Vocals are gurgled and pig squeal galore! Fucking greaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!!!! This CD contains 17 tracks in 28 minutes of sordid musick. You will find cover versions of early RGTE’S Rectal Prolapse" and Leng Tche's "God - Mass Hesteria". Also, cool pink cd layout, and the band's weird photo exploitation are printed too. Good shit!

Lacerater comes out of Italy to bring you some extremely old school death metal insanity. Well, in the 13 minutes that this CD lasts, this band sounds a lot like Deicide, Cannibal Corpse and perhaps something like Vile. The sound of Lacerater isn't far away from the musick of the bands mentioned. The vocals are deep grunts and some occasional screams. Great cd Layout, the production sounds very cool, the band is brutal as fuck and the musick sounds with their groove, speed and technical mixture, great until end. Not my personal favorite genre, but this band is good at what they do. All together the cd sounds very good. "Nessun Urlo nell ombra” will surely not let you down, so if you don’t own it, buy it now.

Non-stop violence and aggression! Every song comprising shitloads of furious blasting, down tuned guitar, some groovy, catchy parts and the vox are ranging from deep low grunts to demented high pitched shrieks. Lyrically this is socially aware type, just the band stating their opinion on aborted and murdered children every year by their denigrated "Mothers"... And well, that's about it.

PUTREFIED GENITALIA - 4 track promotional 2007 sample
This material is actually for the band's debut full length "Ruins of Life". Got a word from Manos (Bassist) that the band will change its name to Grotesque Burial. Anyway, I expected sort of a straightforward gore/grind but instead here we have an old school death metal stabbing. Reminds me of Incantation and Immolation. Putrefied Genitalia is an excellent throwback at early 90's death metal. Definitely not modern type brutal death metal... Tracks like “I Am Decomposition”, “God Forsaken Necrophile”, and “Blueprint of Sickness” don't make any prisoners and are blasting around the ears with enough vehemence owing to a quite good sound production. But not only the blasting parts are to be emphasized here. Also the often appearing mid-tempo and groove parts are offered very well and are taking care of an high ass kicking factor through the declared pretty simple kept riffing. It's going to be really interesting to hear what Putrefied Genitalia is going to record after this promo since this pretty much is a material that shows the progress of a bands birth up to today. Fans of older death metal should definitely pick this up and if you miss the dark atmosphere that used to be one of death metal's trademarks back when it all started.

Reek of Shits are shit gore grind from Czech Republic. Deface Mind is a fairly good album; the music is indeed very solid and incredibly tight. These guys have written these songs with skill and precision, and still there is enough of a gory sound to please even the most extreme fan. The cover of Napalm Death’s, “Suffer the Children” is basic but utterly fantastic. The CD is permeated with some fucking cool groovy breakdowns. I just love the vocals here and throughout the album, a great mix of gutturals and high, hateful growls (No Effects!!!).If you like sickening grind meets nihilistic death metal buy this now.

I can merely say this is one of the one of the best releases I heard coming out from Show Me Your Tits Records. What’s on offer here is some of the dirtiest convulsive groovy gore grind ever! The 6 songs just absolutely pound into one another, with every song comprising of loads of guttural filled grooves, infuriated blasting, down tuned guitar doing high-end riffs and I just love the vocals here and throughout the album, an immense mix of gutturals and gargantuan gurgles.

This split opens with a funny intro taken from some Thailand local flick I guess hahaha and then bursts into full-on blasting and putrid pathological gore grind with some killer Devourment slams! Smallpox Aroma excreted all their violence with “Infectious Introligmeganephronic Renal Hypoplasia” showing how sickening and devastating gore grind can be. Not only does this band have the same gore grind battering in terms of merciless blasting but also this sick fucks managed to incorporate some neck breaking catchy slam feel to their musick! Check out Track 10 for a perfect example. If you like hyper blasting gore grind with some Brutal Death Metal feeling then this band is for you. Check out the interview as well. hehe. What we have now is Satsugai. This sickos is much slower and groovier than the previous one on this split... Their musick churn out raw, catchy, groove ridden gore grind in the vein of C.B.T but what’s cool is that Satsugai don’t just carbon copy them, they have there own little twist on CBT's bulldozer porno grind. I just love the vocals here and throughout the album, a great mix of gutturals, gurgles and high, hateful shrieks. Nothing else to say about this band really, If you don't pick this album up, I'm sure a machete will be headed your way very soon.

SMES - Gory Gory Halleluja
Without a doubt SMES is really with a rotten appetite! This one-man band is the side project from Last Days Of Humanity's vocalist, Erwin de Groot. This album sounds nothing like Last Days Of Humanity; the only thing that resembles Last Days Of Humanity is the vocals. Imagine standing in front of a large bowl filled with entrails, pus, and vomit. Devour everything. Then take a microphone and sing with all that gore snuggle in the back of your throat to know exactly how the vocals resonance. Then, you ask: and the sound? The sound is Cybergoregrind. Can you imagine Pabaroti (Retch in Piss motherfuckers! haha) in Techno Gore Grind version? Hehehe. The music isn't as drum & bass as Libido Airbag, SMES is closer to the more rave-techno gore style, A Perfect soundtrack for some sleazy house party high school fuck fest. Hehehe. You have something maybe not as perfect as Last Days of Humanity in my opinion, but something that will fill up some piece of the empty spot that LDOH left when they decided to call it quitsGrade: 6.5/10

STENCH OF VIRGINITY - Filled With My Sickness (Demo 2006)
Starting at a lower volume and soon getting at full loud format the band shows that they are a mid paced death metal machine where the main goal is to destroy the listener with sheer belligerence and viciousness. What first surprised me of this record was the overall sound. It was really good and you could discern perfectly what was playing each instrument including the bass that usually get buried in the mix in most of the bands of the style. Stench of Virginity has similarities to Putrefied Genitalia mostly on the vocal department that is still sick as hell with Kostas purulent grunts. All the musicianship is very tight flowing and played to perfection the musick catchy, mid paced death metal. I think you get the picture just something a bit like Lividity. Check this out.

CHAINSAW SURGERY - Chainsaw Surgical Disfigurement
This demo contains 4 songs with total playing time of 09:30 minutes armed with brutal skin poundings, Heavy riffage, Bludgeoning bass and utterly sickening gutturals! Each song counts with a great musickal structure that shows us diverse hints, passing by fast parts until neck breaking groovy riffs. Justin [Drummer] is a very good motherfucker and his playing style is very tight! He blast with no problem and his double bass sounds heavy as fuck! [This happens to be my favorite part of this CD] Robert vokills are ranging from low gutturals and stomach turning gurgles [This time, the vocals cums out naturally, no fucking vocal effects! great!]
But four songs are too short!!! I would prefer a longer release to form a better opinion. =) To sum it up, this is a very promising demo, definitely worth checking out! Looking forward for "Abdominal Purulency" to be release on Redrum Records later this year

CONDEMNED - Desecrate the Vile
California based with TXDM influences. Condemned are no new comers to the scene. They we're founded in April of 2004 and one year later, their demo "Mass Burial" saw the light of day. After a few band line up changes, the five sickos have returned to destroy weak asses with their newest ejaculation "Desecrate the Vile" which offers 10 tracks of inexorable brutal death metal in vein of Disgorge (US) while their slam and beat down parts remind me of Devourment. But that does not mean that Condemned copied the style of the bands I've mentioned. They have put a notable batch of songs! The production sounds very cool, the band is brutal as fuck and the musick sounds, with their speed, groove/slam/beat down and technical concoction, great until end! What I really like about this one is the outstanding ultra low guttural vocals of Angel. He is one of the sickest vocalists I have ever heard so far. My only complaint I have about this release is the length of it, its way to short! I've got nothing more to add. Utterly recommended!

MxFx's musick shifts between hyper fast snare grinding and of course, very catchy and groovy parts like the aforementioned bands have done. I bet you know what im talking about. hehe.. The production is excellent, you can hear all the instruments and there's a good balance between them. Get this one and play it loud!
Nelson Monfort Orchestra plays fast, violent chaotic grinding power violence. This band is really good at what they're doing and they have raw sound which i think gives a bonus charm to the listener especially who's into this kind of stuff. So if you're hunting down some shit splattering power violence, I suggest you grab this CD!

GONORRHEA PUSSY/GUT - Yellow Tea For Free/Hooker Ballett (2006)
More squirts from Spermanys sickest porngrind acts! This is pretty much more of the some craziness that I just previously reviewed, but I will say that this one is definitely more brutal sounding. This split contains 9 tracks of groovy grind.
Gonorrhea Pussy plays nothing less, nothing more than a vulgar display perverse, mid-paced and catchy goregrind. Vocals are truly disgusting (pitched!), sounding like a whore regurgitating her own entrails. Haha! Guitar is heavy as fuck and I really dig the drum sound. The musicianship is basic, but well performed. Their most obvious influences I would say are CBT and ROMPEMPROP. Even their logo is nearly identical to Rompemprop’s. Personally I have found this Mcd to be an incredible accompaniment to a hardcore sex! Hahaha!! Especially the Gonorrhea Pussy’s TraXXX! Grab this one and try it for yourselves.

GUT/ROMPEPROP – Girls on Acid/Masters of Gore
These bands are two of the finest goregrind acts around! Now either you like these bands or you do not, I fucking do! This split contains 13 tracks of female mortification, outrageous sexism, everything deranged and twisted. Moreover, of corpse, injected with great sense of sick humor. Gut contributed nine tracks here and honestly, a bad sound quality. Still, awesome grind! =) Most of you already know what to expect with Rompemprop: just neat goregrind, more porn than gore though, Basic very catchy and groovy as fuck musick. Vocals are intense, spew out really well with gory effects. Fitting for gore grind absolutely! Bad thing, they only contributed 4 tracks here. I want more!!

Reincarnation 4 way Split – Impureza, Sudden Death, Arsonist, Ingurgitating Oblivion
Another CD that I had no idea was being sent, this one’s from Nihilistic Holocaust. I heard about this fucker before and read an interview of him excreted at Noise Attack Zine. Anyway, the bands featured on this split are not the kind of distinctive slamming stuff that you hear at the present time, but more old school death metal styled grooves that sometime remind me of good old Immolation, Cannibal Corpse and the goodies alike. If you missed the death metal in the traditional way and crave for the return of old fashioned head banging groove, you will no doubt find it in this CD.

Pretty damn cool Mcd packaging like condoms! Shit yes! Condoms! [If im not mistaken, you can choose 5 different colors. hehe.] And that would be Magistral Flatulence, Yet another cool one-man project from France. MxFx cums out to bring you 15 traxxx of shit splattering pure porn inspired groovy grind sickness! This motherfucker spew out gurgling vocals and some squeal that is something truly sickening.(Obviously with effects.) Drums are well programmed, guitars are utterly heavy, the songs are very structured and they remain clear. The songs here got enough variations to stay interesting. Overall the production is very good! I wonder why there's no song title can be found on this release.. But who the fuck cares anyway?? Magistral Flatulences plays a good dose of groovy grind! I highly recommend this release to all fuckers into CBT, Rompemprop, Gut and Ahumado Granujo.

This here is some good shit! Cream of the cunt! Satan’s Revenge on Mankind plays some pretty intense and chunky gore grind. They are groovy, brutal and heavy as fuck! However, lyrically, this is not my cup of tea. This Cd contains 24 tracks of ultra down tuned distorted cannibalistic riffs, Disgusting gore spewing vocals and occasional screams, vicious blast beats and half time galore! Lumbering satanic/gore ambiances and a strong CBT and Tu Carne influence. Hail to Marco of Rotten Roll Rex for releasing such and impressive album, definitely worth having in any gore grind collection.

SEPTYCAL GORGE - Growing Seeds of Decay
Lately I’ve heard a quite a bit of Italian bands. The most recent find it's way to my letterbox is Septycal Gorge. I really don't know much about this band besides that they are hailing from Turin, Italy. "Growing Seeds of Decay" is a nine-track technical brutal death metal programmed to spurn and slaughter everything in its path! Their style is basically decent brutal death with a lot of other stuff mixed into the twisted song structures. This release is truly breathtaking as it oozes technicality while remaining the brutal feeling on it. The sound production is really good, boasting with a really nice "chugging" of guitars, pretty nice guttural variations, and magnificent drum works that stays consistent throughout the recording. An incredible album that should not let go by.

PROLETAR/BESTIAL VOMIT – If Tomorrow There Was a War
First band starting off this split is Proletar. These Indonesians excreted pretty sweet shit, here you have 22 songs of blasting noise and ear sodomizing political grind core and right in the middle of this noise beating you get some really kick ass riffs too. Regardless of being really fast and furious the band manages to keep the whole thing under control all the time ejaculating orgasms of really compact violent behavior. The drumming is done at the speed of sound with crushing blast beats, occasional mid tempos and D-beat galore! The sound of the recording is great which is vital to transmit all the violence unleashed here. The vocals on here are fucking sweet as well, there is low grunting regurgitation and putrid high screams, and you can take notice of voices that are reminiscent of Anal Cunt. Afterward we have Bestial Vomit from Italy. Tons of releases under their belt but fuck, I only heard this band when I got this cd from my mailbox. Right away I thought holy shit this is mad, chaotic and noisy as fuck! This is some beyond doubt, intense grind core equipped with some guttural vocals and ear stabbing screeching and social/political lyrics that will no hesitation leave you begging for more. Tracks here are a little rough but totally audible and the performance are tight. Anyway, the layout of the cd is filled with pictures of typical political band that would go about. Well, just expect somewhat bland away from gory shits. Pretty damn good grind core. Cheers to Joseph of LOFI records for sending me this shit.

JIG AI – Jig Ai
Great addition to Bizaare Leprous Productions, my favorite label in the scene today. Apparently these fuckers have been around for a good few years although I had never heard of them until the new signing to BLP. Nevertheless, this here is some good shit! Jig Ai plays some pretty intense sickening gore grind. Each songs count with a great musical structure that shows us diverse hints, passing by fast parts until groovy riffs. Also, the vocals are versatile, Buraak spew out vocals in vein of Ahumado Granujo and MFAGCQD. The musick plays very fast with blasting galore and just repeatedly beats the crap out of you. A must have album for gore grind freaks out there. Some of my favorite songs on this album are “Ninja Gangbang”, “Injector Kruto” and “Fresh Manga”. Check out the Brujeria cover as well.

These fuckers offers 7 tracks of catchy porn/gore grind combined with rock & roll musick completely presented with heavy guitar riffs, well performed drums and 2 different vocal approaches, making this release far away from being boring.

MINCING FURY AND GUTTURAL CLAMOUR OF QUEERS DECAY – 7
MFAGCQD is definitely one of the leading Czech’s death/gore grind bands. There are three things that jumped out at me when I listened to this album. One is the vocals, two is the drumming and three is the production. I am massively overwhelmed with the vocal performance on this album. Phil the singer is all over the place, and every vocal approach he uses sounds astonishing. The foremost vocal technique is along the lines of the voice you’d expect, utterly sickening pig squeal! The drumming isn’t anything less than superb and tight as virgins’ cunt! This is one of those albums that don’t let you seize your breath. Just when one breakneck song ends, the next begins. They seem to prefer playing fast, and to be honest, I'm really glad they do. Hehehe. The production is pretty much perfect for the style the band plays. Even with the noisy approach it’s easy to hear everything that is going on. I’m a huge fan of the drum production. It just has a clean and natural tone that a lot of bands would kill for. While this probably isn’t the best MFAGCQD album ever, it definitely is the best album the band has released since Lamentations. You could almost call it the sequel to Lamentations, which is definitely not a bad thing. MFAGCQD is absolutely a band to keep an eye and ear on.

MANIAC – From Suffering
Great surprise that I had when I listened to this band for the first time. The album didn’t hit me as much as it has after a few listens and it does appear to be growing on me song after song. This release is quite frankly an amazing album of death metal. This here will certainly please freaks that love death metal following the traditional path. Maniac reminds me Cannibal Corpse and Six Feet Under. This fuckers brings back the old school death metal without fucking up the sound integrity from the early days. Loads of neck breaking riffs in mid tempo sector that kick my hairy brown ass! Unfortunately the cd ends with some lousy outro, which I think, don’t fit in at all. If you don’t already own this cd, get off your ass and buy it.

This Spanish gore freaks have been sodomizing the grind scene for the past 18 years and are still as cruel as the day they began, and after several years of waiting, this slab of gore has finally been unleashed. This latest ejaculation contains 23 tracks of pure utter gore grind dementia! Excellent sound for all the tracks, outstanding gory and odious vocals, and pure blasting brutality!!

ANAL WHORE/PROCTALGIA – Split
The split begins with the Anal Whore, this is a one-man project done by Andreas of CxMxPx. The musick is hyper fast and chaotic sounding, gut-style sleazy drum machine anal porno gore grind. A total putrid yet catchy stuff, there is no fucking around here. Anal Whore ejaculated 13 tracks of the craziest shit you’ll ever hear. Vocals are utterly disgusting, made up of purulent burps, Kinda reminds me of CBT. Second In the line up is Proctalgia. A 2-piece band based is Cagayan De Oro Philippines. These fuckers play some ultra harsh ear sodomizing drum machine driven gore grind noise musick. Vocals are utterly sickening. Great variety of gurgles and gore spewing pitch shifted growls. The sound quality is pretty rough, fitting for this kind of genre though. Lyrically it seems like pretty standard fare, but I didn’t receive lyrics so I can’t really be sure. I think the lyrics are directly out of a pathology book. Hehehe. Sure, it’s nothing new, but it is well played. Gore/Noise grind fans will surely want to pick this up, but if you’re a fan of technical/progressive metal, you should probably cover yourself in fat and run through famished lands of Somalia instead.

ANONIMA SEQUESTRI - Unsafe, Insane & Forced
Anonima Sequestri is a drum machine driven mid-paced porn gore grind freak from Toscana, Italy. The band had a number of demos out earlier than the release of this debut album, probably in a gory way too, but I didn't have the chance to listen to them... As expected this CD fucking slays, the huge Cock And Ball Torture influence is obvious but what’s cool is that Anonima Sequestri don’t just carbon copy them, they have there own little twist on CBT's bulldozer porno grind. When I first heard these motherfuckers, I was completely blown away and the band quickly became one of my favorite gore grind bands around right now.
The cover of CBT’s “Anal Sex Terror” is basic but utterly incredible. I love the vocals here and all the way through the album, a enormous mix of gutturals and some infrequent shrieking. Overall, is a great release, definitely worth checking out. For fans of groovy gore grind, no one does it better then Anonima Sequestri.

HUMAN MASTICATION - Demo Sampler 2007
The Davao Death metal scene has been in a state of decline as of late, the scene being overfilled with melodic death metal and Black Metal Elitist motherfuckers which to be honest has to get to the point of complete boredom. But thankfully Human Mastication together with Almoranas, Erectile Dysfunction, Disastrous, Internal Torture, Disgorgement, Necrosis, Abaddon and Execration are the complete opposite of that scene. Anyway Human Mastication spewed forth 3 tunes of brutal and devastating groovy death metal. This is heavy and tight as virgins’ cunt! Vocals are utterly sickening, riffage is hostile and the drum blast are throbbing in order to sever your brain, the bass also add the good dose of heaviness needless to say to the production its great, if I take comparison to their earlier recordings. This is one of the few demos that comes along that I could just go on and on about. With every listen you’ll discover something new that you might not have picked up on the first time. The songs are full of little nuances, and are some of the best-written songs from the band that I have ever heard combining the US Death Metal Sound with hardcore influences. It’s nothing new, but they don’t clone anyone either. I think it’s hard for bands of this style to find an original sound, but Human Mastication have managed to worship the ‘masters’ while still impart their own style on the music. If you were unfamiliar with this band, to some degree, such style reminds me of Soils of Fate, Stabwound, Waking The Cadaver, even Dying Fetus but I can’t say that it’s a vague comparison though. If you’re into groovy brutal death metal and if you were into bands I’ve mentioned you’d be able to get into this.

If you are a stickler for big budget productions and no mistakes you definitely won’t be a fan of Noise Conspiracy Project. The all out speed assault of the band makes for a noisy listen that pummels you into submission, 20 tracks of pure ruthless turmoil. It pretty much reminds me of anal cunt and sore throat, fast-paced and blasting but not without its fair share of groove... NxCxPx has no charm whatsoever. They're just fucking mean and vulgar and will most likely end up offending you. No slow parts and no compassion! Your ears are perforated by a intoxicating raw destructive super fast grind noise obliteration! Featuring all the members of Condemned, then you might get the idea what these guys are going for. These fuckers would definitely be one of my favorite local acts around. Grind Core Noise at its finest!

The five tracks here are brutal and fast with shitloads blast beats and complex drum patterns accompanied with dual vocal sewage and intricate riffs. This is pure brutality in the vein of the most bestial grind core bands with a certain death metal feeling in some parts. We’ve got nothing new here but total Brutal Truth worship.

DOWN FROM THE WOUND - Agony Through Rituals of Self Purification
Fuck yes! This has finally been exhumed from the putrid bowels of Sevared Records! We all know Down From The Wound’s massive feat on “Piercing Through The Veil of Lies, which, to my mind, left a substantial impression on the inheritance of Philippine brutal death metal scene. This is the kind of discharge restoring my faith in the current local scene, now flooded with shitty elitist, new metal bands and the likes. Anyway, all the musicianship is very firm, flowing and played to excellence. Down From The Wound is a massive Brutal Death Metal “Dinuguan”. (Blood Stew, go google!), they would consist of more than a few key ingredients cannibalized from different bands. Disgorge would represent their all out velocity and sheer technicality and Devourment would displaced their ‘Slamming’ approach… “Agony Through Rituals of Self Purification” is fucking tremendous with a pure malevolent resonance that perforate the ears in a hostile way. Overall the material is very well written, professional and atrocious and the vocals are tremendously guttural, as the style requires making the things the most extreme and inhuman as possible. For a band that has no bassist, this is heavy as fuck!
This might not be anything groundbreaking, but it's actually not bad and if you liked the bands I have mentioned earlier, you’ll probably dig Down From The Wound as well. The only complain I have with this is the vocal arrangement. It’s way too predictable. (Breee breeee broooo breeeee) It tends to grow a bit monotonous after listening through the four tracks. Maybe Tristan could have diverse his vocals a bit more, but this doesn’t mean that I dislike it, fuck no. Tristan’s vocals have evolved since the “Piercing through the Veil of Lies” demo and I think he’s one of the sickest vocalist around. Like I mentioned earlier this isn’t exactly what you would call original. You’ll hear a lot of Devourment, and Disgorge influences infused into their musick. They unquestionably have a knack for combining the diverse styles though and since this is their debut album, I’m sure the originality will come on the next releases. If you haven’t got their earlier recordings, you’ll get the whole "Piercing Through the Veil of Lies" demo as bonus materials, so that gives you one more reason to pick this disc up. If you’re into Guttural Slamming Brutal Death Metal,
I totally recommend this shit!!

It's nice to perceive a noise from a death metal band hailing from the Philippines, as I have mentioned earlier on the DFTW review, These are the kind of releases that restores my reliance in the current local scene. Hailing from the ‘City of Golden Friendship’, these fuckers play some groovy guttural death metal and you can certainly feel the power rumbling all the way through the entirety of this release. The further you listen to the first song and the other after that one you start on noticing and hearing some really kick ass strong parts, the production is pretty rough but still manages to capture the intensity that the band delivers.

ERECTILE DYSFUNCTION - demo
Kani na mga rapist kay isa sa mga maayo na tropa sa Davao, uban sa HM ug Almoranas.. Hehehe. Kung legal lang ang mang rape, wala nay virgin sa ilang lugar. hahahaha! If you are familiar to bands like Glossectomy (Japan) or early stuff with Devourment then you might get the idea what these guys are going for. The songs are in the traditional vein of all the above bands with a great emphasis placed on catchy mid paced slamming sections that sound like a catchier version of Glossectomy. The vocals courtesy of Buttchokiller are one of the sickest gutturals on the local scene I've heard to date, how this guy can get the ranges of gutturals is amazing. The songs could've been more interesting if they had a bit heavier guitar and more diverse structures. Anyway, This pervs plays some slam-oriented death metal that won’t really break any new ground, but it's pretty ok for what it is. But fuck who cares? If you're into Guttural Slamming Death metal, Like the bands mentioned earlier, you probably already own this, and if not, get in touch with the band for a personally signed by buttchokiller using some utterly sickening smegma.

Hehehe Anyway, this CD came out in late '06, but I decided to review it now anyway since I never had the chance to do so back in the day, plus this band's already split up. This band is no more; they split up like one year ago? hehehe. I read somewhere that the members of this band got a newer band featuring almost all of the members of Succubus Ritual, namely Disgorgement. But at least they left us this magnificent demo! This demo contains 3 tracks of guttural death metal. Musically, it's a bit like Brodequin, but with less extreme vocals. Sound is not excellent but still good, Raw and intense. I have to remark the excellent Drum works this fucker plays on the songs here, he has a lot of technical skills and at the same time a lot of feeling. Really good demo and recommended to the lovers of the previously mentioned band.

ROOTS OF TORMENT - Demo 2005
This stuff has a sort of groove oriented death metal sound at times, but definitely with lots of gore grind influences thrown into their musick. The vocal procession is guttural, vomiting blood from the encrusted esophagus of a tuberculosis victim and sometimes it sounds like the vocalist is trying to push boulder-sized shit from his anus. hehehehe. Guitars are heavy as fuck, making some catchy, head banging and moshable chunk riffage. And the drum blasts and grooves along at a good tempo, making some attractive brutal stuff. Obviously isn’t as crisp as properly recorded tracks but still sounds pretty good for a live recording. It'll be interesting to hear what these fuckos come up with the near future. I think these fuckers become better after this demo and it has been 2 years since this demo was released, so I can only imagine how the new stuff would sound.

BRIMSTONE IN FIRE - "Despair" Demo 2007
Thanks to Alex of In Dark Purity Zine for giving me a copy of this. Filipino Technical Death Metallers are back with this promo track, "Despair". This is an excellent band with a lot of technical riffs, really fast parts and intricate arrangements. There are plenty of complex and twisted melodies that make the music even more interesting. Plus here we can listen them with a much better sound that enhances all the efforts and make each of the compositions more powerful and beautiful. They combine heavy riffs with amazing melodies and through this way they have discovered their unique sound with a lot of originality and identity. While singer Lloyd sings with a deep grunts that make interesting melodies to give that special feeling that Brimstone in Fire's music has. There is even variety within the clean vocals, so vocally you hardly ever know what to expect next. Not my personal favorite genre, but this band is good at what they do.

SEPTIC SEWER - Gorerotted Manifesto
I am a newbie in the 'underground scene' and my knowledge in DIY stuff is still quite limited. Am I right when I say that DIY doesn’t necessarily mean recording stuff just for the hell of it? There are lots of Local DIY bands out there with presentable materials. CONDEMNED, CHAMBER 69 and DISSIMULATE (RIP) for an example are DIY bands, which has good materials. I review musick and not attitude in this zine. For you, as a fan, what is more important? Music or Attitude? As for me, I go for both. The year's 2007, it's almost 2008. The technology's there and waiting to be used and misused. Why not use it? I mean there's no excuse to act as if you're stuck in the 80's. In my opinion, the quality of the material they were able to come up with was off because it's expensive to record during that time and their gadgets were ancient. Hehehe. I honestly tried to listen to this with open ears, but my god this is the prevalent shit that I have ever heard. This demo showcased nothing but attitude and old school trivialities. It seem as if they didn’t pay heed to the record. My fart is more audible than this. Maybe that's what they're really into. That's probably why they like Septic Sewer. But I still think that my fart's better than them. This is my opinion, and I don’t expect anyone to think the same. You could contact the band if you want. Get a copy of their cd for you to make your own judgment. You'd think it would be great effort wise but it's not! Enough of this, I think I'll just cut the damned cheese instead... I really find this hard to bear personally but those who are really patient, and into some ultra Lo-fi farting style, noise/grind will probably dig Septic Sewer.

RELIGIOUS NIGHTMARE - The Junkyard of Infinity
This is decent stuff, at least much better than an old demo I remember hearing from them... First of all, the recording has a much better sound that lets you appreciate better the guitars work and the intense vocals. Fast rhythms are essential here and shitloads of smashing blasts throughout this 11minutes of insanity, making each tune purely aggression unleashed. The vocals are high shrieking assaults and some raspy grunting, fitting well the overall feeling of the music. Musically it's very much in the vein of say, Phobia, with something of a slightly sludgecore/crust influence. "Machinegun Supremacy”, here we see ourselves drowned in a slow-paced sludgy assault, everything suits quite well, the musick sounds diverse and the feedbacks grows on you like a motherfucker. Another remarkable thing here is the great sound that has been achieved in the studio where each instrument is perfectly mixed making the music shine on each tune. This is an album that might earn a spot in your player and won't leave it for a long while. Damn good cd!

This CD features 15 tracks of alcohol induced grind core. Musically they should easily appeal to all fuckers who would enjoy ejaculating on the hymns of Phobia in permutation with several other elements of Nasum and Anal Cunt. The vocals are vomited forth in two different ways, Deep grunts and the other one spew out some really sick pig squeal, definitely not for the people into clear sounding or technical music. Just Pure Fuckin incarnate Grind/Noise annihilation!

CONDEMNED - ...To suffering
100% (proof) alcohol-induced grind core straight in your face!! These drunken bastards denigrates escaped their lunatic asylum to mince and inflict pain to their listeners. The band caters 51 tracks of raw, fast and violent grind. The sound quality on this CD is pretty rough but it still kicks a lot of big hairy weak Asses! Vocal are repulsive, made up of entrails vomiting grunts and the other one is really disturbing pig squeal! (Great!!) The cover art incorporates well the lyrical perception (there are no lyrics on the booklet, but judging on their song titles. they're into political stuff and other social concerns :) This is definitely a depraved album that is guaranteed to fuck you up! Oh btw, this one is limited, 200 copies I guess. So you better act fast!

LOSS OF CONTROL – Ricin for Lethe, Tropics of Cancer
Long awaited discharge from the Quezon City’s mad bastards! This is some truly extreme brutal death/grind equipped with some guttural as fuck vocals, ear sodomizing pig squeals, The guitar fucking shreds and the drums absolutely pummels with intensity equal to the music that will no doubt leave you begging for more. Loss of Control sounds at times like a concoction of all the great elements of Pig Destroyer and Cephalic Carnage with sludgy elements and inserted with loads of technical diversity. These guys are well worth checking out and deserve much attention, which I’m sure they will surely get! So if devastating, technical, brutal death metal is your criterion, then you utterly should pay attention to these fuckers!

PUS VOMIT – Vomit the Dead
Now this is an utterly sickening, unrelenting and unforgiving guttural death metal brutality. These Filipino maniacs only have one thing in mind and that is to devastate and devour the listeners without sympathy. “Vomit the Dead” is a collection of recordings that has taken place between 2005 and 2007, displaying pretty much the whole thing that Pus Vomit has recorded and written so far; “Vomit the Abdominal Pus”, “God Help Me Rape The Dead”, “Rehearsal Demo 2005” and an unreleased live track entitled “Retching Lacerated Entrails”, adding yet another notch to the belt of the country's growing Brutal Death Metal scene. The music itself is slamming yet technical, reminds me of Despondency and some TXDM slam approach. There are a great number of diverse grooves and rhythms all through the structures loaded with various timing and tempo changes, drawing also on some insight from the porn masters: Lividity. Also checking out the Pus Vomit’s song titles, you can distinguish some Lividity influences as well. Ok then, the first thing that I notice and I have to say that Ryan, this fucker pounds skins repulsively! Tight as fuck!!! Same goes for Marco, he pulls off some sick vocal approach, ranging from nauseating pig squeals to depraved gutturals grunts, reminiscent of Neil Rupert emitting through Dyscrasia’s putrid gutturality. The style he spew out at “Vomit the Abdominal Pus” is what I like if you ask me compared to the technique he ejaculates at “God Help Me Rape The Dead”. Louie’s guitar also fucking shreds! BUT… It’s way too thin!! I hope these fuckers get a good quality recording on the next releases. Watch out for the full length on 2008!!

IN DARK PURITY ZINE #5
This local zine along with Tripalium Zine motivated me to create a ’zine of my own. It’s nice to hangout with the editors of these zines, they aren’t like most of the people dominating the scene who are elitist as fuck. haha! They have nothing better to do than diss newer acts and make themselves feel superior. I think they suffer from having inferiority complex or something. They’re way toooooooooooo close-minded. What if the newer acts that they call crap are better than them? Anyway, this zine is open to almost all genres of metal. There are over 32 pages about 16 interviews, Some of them being with Brimestone in Fire, Disconformity, Human Mastitcation, Infected Malignity, Inhuman Dissiliency, Malignancy, Orchidectomy, Vomit Remnants and Waco Jesus. I had fun reading the Brimestone in Fire interview. When I was still singing nursery rhymes, they were already spewing out death metal. hehehe. One of the coolest motherfuckers around! Overall, this zine is great! Arif of FleshDisgorged mutilates cover art. #6 is now in the works!

This is a pro-printed fanzine hailing from Amsterdam and isn't your typical HC/Punk/Grind/Crust fanzine wherein they constantly have the inclination to spew out in a lot of their delicate opinions, detestation, and whatever shits come out of the editor’s mind. Anyway, this zine took me about 3 weeks to get all the way through the whole thing, tons of stuff to read. Band bios, Cd reviews, flyers, Scene reports and shitloads of interviews!!! Some of them being with: The Bold and The Beautiful, Needful Things, Hewhocorrupts, Kobra XL, Pigsty, Leng tch’e, Haemorrhage, Phobia, The Kill, Demisor, Kryptosexual Concroid, Grossmember, Fubar, Unholy Grave and a lot more!!! But the queries at the Critical Situation Zine’s part are short; it generally doesn't contain more than 20 questions. Overall, this split zine is great.

PUTRIDITY – Mental Prolapse Induces Necrophilism
These fuckers are one of the most promising new bands at this moment and they are causing quite a pestilence all through the international underground scene, evidence to this fact would be their signing to Permeated Records who showcase some of the best newer acts that death metal has to offer. If you are looking for fresh acts the sickest guttural death metal band around, Putridity is certain to give pleasure to your hunger. "Mental Prolapse Induces Necrophilism" caters 9 tracks of relentless brutal death metal, inhumanly deep purulent guttural spewing, pummeling skin pulsation and killer cacophonous breakdowns of severe sounding atrocities! The best description might be something of a Stench of Dismemberment, Disgorge (US) and Devourment combined. The only downside of this CD is that its playing time is way too short. This is definitely one the best death metal releases in 2007 and should give pleasure to everyone into bands mentioned earlier.

DEGRADE - Lost Torso Found
If you’re expecting some melodic death metal, since these guys are from Sweden, buy yourself a beer, eat lot of food, pamper yourself then find a hungry beast, get yourself eaten alive! Seriously, if you’re melodic/progressive metal loving dude/gal/fag or whatever you want to call yourself, look somewhere instead. Just look at the lists of releases from Permeated Records and you will see such names like Wargore, Enmity, Stench of Dismemberment, etc… That’s nothing but sheer display of brutality. Degrade isn’t an exception. Signing on label like Permeated Records, its fairly obvious this is going to be brutal death metal at its sickest form! If you’re a fan of their earlier recording such as “Hanged And Disemboweled”, this album won’t disappoint! The production is a lot bludgeoning if I’ll take contrast with the previously mentioned ejaculation from the band. Jon Zig mutilates the cover art, so you know what to expect. Kicking off with the devastating “Torso Extraction” the band vastly shows all the violent behavior that they can deliver with their bludgeoning and devouring guitar riffs, accompanied with utterly sickening guttural spewing and pummeling drum works then “Lost Torso Found” is a good pick. According to their bio, they attribute their sound to infamous bands such as Severe Torture, Disavowed, Pyaemia, Skinless, and more. Most of which you can take notice of when you listen for them. Degrade have loads of shrewdness to demonstrate for on this release, but this is kind of a constant indulgence that doesn't spread its wings utterly. But... this will give pleasure to all fuckers who’ve been hooked on the band since their beginning! Definitely a good album worth checking out! If you are into the most intense type of brutal death metal bands then you surely have to check out Degrade. A must have!

FOUR SEATS FOR INVALIDES – Defy
Four Seats For Invalides comes from Czech Republic and “Defy” is 4s4i’s third album. In here you’ll get a lethal dose of drum machine driven insane grind/metal melted with industrial intros and maybe a little hardcore as well. Prominent features on this album are the distinctive vocal patterns and the guitars variations as well. You can find a sluggish, chunky and thrashy riffs, kinda reminds me of Pantera. Also there are solos, though solid they aren’t really anything special. Plenty of large elements are spread all the way through the album; these songs would grasp and quiver you hard enough to bang your heads. Adequate technical skills of Four Seats For Invalides’ members found a right expression because of a good songwriting. Good production is a solid foundation of very proficient material. Not my personal favorite genre, but this band is good at what they do. Check this out.

CLG – So Far…So Good…So Mongoloid!!
What first amazed me of this record was the overall sound. It was really good and you could distinguish perfectly what was playing each instrument as well as the bass and the drums that usually get buried in the mix in most of the bands of the style. The riffs and song structures are in my opinion more Death Metal-oriented whereas the drumming has grind core intonation. These fuckers spew out a violent music with blasting galore, shredding riffs and depraved vocal approach. The material isn’t long: 10 tracks and 31 minutes but its intensity is noxious. They are unquestionably doing good music and will hopefully get better and better with each release, I foresee a very exciting future for this band, but fuck, they are now disbanded.

EBOLIE - Elevation into Disintegration
This is previously reviewed by Gee on the first issue, in view of the fact that Bubsy & Drail sent me a copy for a second time; I decided to mutilate a review of this dementia pressed on CD! What can I say? This is notable grind core with loads of influences from a variety of different style of music. Chaotic, well played, noisy, but most importantly, audible. In my opinion, it sounds good and nonconforming at the same time. What I mean by this is basically the songs are good for the most part but a few traits seem unusual and cut song flow. Though it seems that those parts are probably intentional. He, he! Ebolie has a character that I think would certainly please the fans of grind, hardcore and death metal. The only complain about this album is, it was a bit too lengthy. Towards the end of the CD you have a propensity to lose the momentum. Comparison wise, there is nothing analogous that comes to mind. If you like demented grind core, buy this now!

PISSHITER - Grundle punch
This is a putrid vile mix of gore grind in best traditions of CBT and Rompeprop together with some black metal influences. You read it right! Black fvkking metal!! Don't ask me to compare Pisshitter’s music to some black metal bands for the reason that I've never heard more than 5 minutes of Black Metal in my whole rotting existence because I pretty much think that black metal is too gay for me. Anyway, most of which you can hear when you listen for them thru their riffs, particularly on the ‘chaotic’ part. The production is rough but still heavy and it suits the style really well. They have the rawness needed for a feeling of barbarity in the music of this kind. I'm sure this will not be up everyone’s alley, but I would urge you all to live a little and check these perverts out!! Well worth the listen!

Hehe! Basic, very catchy and groovy as fuck musick. Vocals are intense, spew out really well with gory effects. Fitting for goregrind absolutely! Bad thing, they only contributed 4 tracks here.

Septycal Gorge - Growing Seeds of Decay
Lately i've heard a quite a bit of Italian bands. The most recent find it's way to my letterbox is Septycal Gorge. I really don't know much about this band besides that they are hailing from Turin, Italy. "Growing Seeds of Decay" is a nine track technical brutal death metal programmed to spurn and slaughter everything in it's path! Their style is basically decent brutal death with alot of other stuff mixed into the twisted song structures. This release is truly breathetaking as it oozes technicality while remaining the brutal feeling on it. The sound production is really good, boasting with a really nice "chugging" of guitars, pretty nice guttural variations, and magnificent drumworks that stays consistent throughout the recording. An incredible album that should not let go by

Here is yet another mcd from another sick Italian band, and not surprisingly, its fucking amazing! The Italian scene has just been incredible in the past couple of years with a bunch of brutal bands on the verge of exploding like, Vomit the Soul, Septycal Gorge and Wargore. "Cannibalistic Urge" obviously brings intense bands like Disgorge(US) Enmity and Devourment to mind but Stench Of Dismemberment doesnt cum across as being just clone. They cater us 5 songs running to 17:36 minutes of aural debauchery! As expected, fast, catchy, cumplex song structures, bludgeoning blastings, guttural vokills, unrelenting and inhumanly deep! Everthing is really intense! The copro-duction on this cd is some of the best i've heard so far. The cover is sick,but something filthier would be welcum. Check out Track 2 "Indulgence Denied" (01:15 - 01:58), Utterly sick and perfect tune for hacking and slashing weak asses! haha! I am looking forward for the full length! More than recommended!
