Style: demented brutal technical death metal
archetypal sophomore album by brutal technical death metal apostles [1996] stands as a foundational, multidimensional half and hour long recording, a cornerstone of flesh-devouring genre, featuring the inhuman and untamable guttural roars of Lord Worm, as well as insane yet uniquely inventive drumming of Flo Mounier; dramatically refined since their debut, the songwriting reaches near perfection here: each composition unfolds like a surgically precise form of chaos, where dissonant guitar riffs intertwine with astonishingly complex polyrhythmics and a bass line that drags the listener deep into its viscous depths, while grotesque, macabre lyrics steeped in nihilism and existential torment amplify the instrumental frenzy; British gatefold sleeve translucent red vinyl edition is limited to 1000 units
