CANNIBAL CORPSE

Release Year: 2013
Artist Origin: USA
Style: intense brutal extreme death metal

pivotal sixth longplay [1998] of typically clinical, extremely focused Cannibal crew is a reference point of sophisticated American death metal, marking the studio debut of guitarist Pat O'Brien, with yet sicker approach to intensity and cohesiveness of dynamic music exposed: masters of all things technical and heavy chop the heads, molest the bodies, suffocate, decapitate and break bones with surgical precision, yet it is only notional behaviour, masterfully embodied by oppressing guitar sound, while Corpsegrinder's roar drowns with a maddening bludgeoning hate; such cuts as Sentenced to Burn, I Will Kill You and the dreadful title track cannot leave a single fan indifferent, crafting an atmosphere that is both eerie and deeply engaging
