Bifid Corpse – Dead and Decaying
The whole EP comes at you like a wounded bear, perhaps mortally wounded, but still having enough strength to eviscerate you on its way out. Dead & Decaying is filthy and ugly in the best possible way.
Scour – Scour
The short EP gives the sense of a relentless, many clawed demon screaming across the landscape for the sole purpose of rending flesh from bone.
Quinta Essentia – Initiates of the Great Work
I always love an album which forces me into some involuntary reaction, especially an album that touches whichever part of my lizard brain causing headbanging. Initiates in the Great Work is just such an album.
Cough – Still They Pray
They are fantastic as making you feel the torment within the songs.
