These are no newcomers to death metal, as members can be found in the two renowned acts Disgorge and Cattle Decapitation, along with some more or less not-so-renowned (yet still great) Being Killed, Liturgy, The Locust etc. But how can they live up to the expectations after such comparisons… Bloody well!
Yup, this is some seriously brutal, fast-paced death metal. The tempo is almost non-stop ultra-blasting without becoming mind-numbing and boring. They’ve thrown in enough tempo changes and variations (while remaining firmly in a fast pace) to keep things interesting. Short outbursts of slower heaviness and mid-tempo, quickly turning into ultra-blasting. Dave shows off extremely talented drum work, and Tim’s guitar skill is not to be shunned, and there are some definite cool riffage going on. But, let’s not forget to mention the deep, dark and brutal growls and grunts from Levi, that guy’s got one hell of a voice.
The hefty production lets the fast riffing, the blasting drumming and the hellish vocals make a deep impact on the listener. These three talented men have provided us with an absolutely killer album, jam-packed with technicality, speed and cookimonster growls. A non-stop murdering rampage, spread out through 30 minutes of butchering brutality. Fans of Brodequin, Avulsed, Lividity (etc) should definitely look Pathology up.
