I checked out a few songs by Visceral Disgorge, the album sounds solid so far. Cant find anything wrong with them. the vocals remind me of the ones on the new katalepsy promo.
I found the songs I listened to be (like 3 of them maybe) to be basically worthless, blurry slam that doesn't warrant much, if any, attention. Slam really does not ever need to be like 45 minutes long per album, it really makes 0 sense why they would write that unless they were doing something incredibly engaging, which, from the songs I heard, again, did not sound like it was true. I might still give it a shot but I
hate writing negative reviews (love of the scene, etc. prevent me from really openly-badmouthing slam) so it doesn't seem totally likely.
A new Ancient Necropsy is going to be released this month?
ARE YOU FUCKEN SERIOUS?! Awesome! I thought the last one was the least-best (I hesitate to say it's "bad" or the "worst so far" because Ivan is a brilliant writer and guitarist...and vocalist...and drummer...etc.) but I would love to check this.
After checking out the putridity review on slam minded, I am having slam withdrawls. Definitely going to order the album. Very well written review andy!
Thanks a lot, man! Glad you like it; I've been getting a lot of love for my review, on last.fm and the Facebook page (which, if you or anyone else hasn't joined is
here!), so I assume it's one of my best yet (next to my Devourment -
Unleash the Carnivore review, of course
).
edit: OH SHIT almost forgot! NEW REVIEW UP ON S-M. The Gurchick Tree's demo gets 5 slams out of 5 from me.
