You're using the subjective word bad to mean the objective word "unfitting". Gorepoflesh's production perfectly fits the sound they're trying to achieve. They're not silly, they're not goofy, they're brutal and sound inhuman and perverted. I don't expect most people to like it and then again I don't expect most people to find in art what I find in it (the beauty of decay and perversion, in this case). However, brutal death metal is getting too glossy and needs to be slapped in the face and reminded what it's all about: underground, actually brutal, uncaring, hideous, antisocial music made by people who crave just these things from what they create. Gorepoflesh perfectly encapsulates this.
BTW, you generally have good taste in music according to your Youtube, though I'm not really a fan of Ingested, Dekapitator or Jungle Rot (lol).
I understand why people would dislike things that are bad, because, well, they're bad. The only thing, however, that defines what is "good" and what is "bad" in art is judging by technique, which isn't the only (or even close to the best) way to judge and appreciate art. Surely you must understand that in order to judge what someone is doing, you first need to understand what they were setting out to accomplish. If someone is trying to crash a car, and they crashed their car, you wouldn't approach the situation and judge them for their lack of driving capability, for instance. An extreme and unrelated example, but context is important and the artist's will is even more important when judging aesthetics. Gorepoflesh are trying to make fucked up, perverted, insanely putrid sounding slam, and you really have no grounds to say you could make them sound "better" when your entire argument is founded on a bastardization of their sound.
edit: Tyler, thanks. I'm glad a few people at least see it my way. I'd like to see a resurgence of fucking putrid barbaric slam that doesn't even sound like humans created it. Wormed approach this, too, btw.
