Following three demos, DISEMBOWEL have a full length of putrid Death Metal to offer. Out now via Maggot Stomp Records.
Feedback and crusty riffs bellow in with crushing aggression, crawling alongside macabre growls and snappy drums to set in with a convulsively abrasive rhythmic onslaught. Disturbingly dark tremolo riffs and double kick bass hits hard with a Bolt Thrower style mid-tempo bout of warfare, chiming cymbals cutting through the mix. Thunderous drum fills and cascading blastbeats transform into a monstrously hideous beast with malignant guitar, bass and vocals churning out utter disdainful, odious Death Metal brilliance.
The scathing inferno of meaty Death Metal barbarity continues with utmost proficiency, driving out a powerful and forceful onslaught of bellowing, guttural soundscapes torn right from the crypts of filthy extremity. Disembowel do not waste any time, maintaining a consistently brutal and visceral, creeping momentum that really gets under your skin. Hauntingly aggressive with some impeccable snarled howls from the vocalist driving out further malice over the pummelling drums and crunchy, stomping riffs. There is no denying this is some monolithically heavy and intense material that is truly obliterating.
With a defiled growth occurring throughout the record, like the sound itself is mutating into something disgusting, the mind-bending chaos of the instrumental work fantastically fulfils its task of creating staunch and putrid layers for you to sink your teeth into with a raspy old school production that is still crystal-clear and actually rather tight. Hammering out ferocious riffs, growls and drum work is the consensus the bands ability, hitting furiously hard with an unrelenting yet somewhat diverse sound, featuring some nice tempo changes but mainly a consistent mid-range assault of offal-spawning marvellousness.
Pure old school Death Metal, no bells and whistles, just a meaty and solid upheaval of grave-grooves and mortifyingly crushing sounds, just how it should be. While there may not be anything particularly new here, who cares when it is still a brilliant record of classic sounds and delivered in such a brutal fashion. -8/10
