DAATH death metal medley

[Zuranthus]

While in the studio recording their new album, The Concealers, the members of Daath decided to
record a medley of classic death metal songs by Cannibal Corpse, Morbid Angel and Dying Fetus.
Charmingly dubbed “Fecal Finger,” the track won’t actually appear on the band’s new album, so they decided
to let us pass it on to you… for free!

Daath drummer Kevin Talley explained the genesis of the track to us via e-mail:

“Fecal Finger”… a beautiful name for a beautiful piece of music. One day we jammed
some death metal songs and we jokingly said we should play them at a show… so we did.
We chose the DYING FETUS song because I wrote and recorded it with them and many people never saw me play it live.
Matt DeVries [Chimaira] and I used to jam that MORBID ANGEL riff a couple years ago so we brought that in since it is crushingly brutal. And you can’t jam a jam without Jim Carrey’s favorite death metal band CANNIBAL CORPSE.
We recorded this freakin shit because kids these days need to recognize who influenced the newer bands they listen to.
After hearing the originals for so many years, it’s weird hearing these songs with a newer style recording.
But Sean Z’s vocals are fucking sick and Jonny Davy’s (Job for a Cowboy) guest vocals on the MORBID ANGEL part are amazing.

This recording is finally growing on me and it’s actually my favorite thing to listen to right now.

[_Brutalism_]

Despite it being a good idea, I didn't really dig the guitar tone or drum sounds to compliment the Dying Fetus intro. The sound didn't match the riff in my opinion. It just sounded too modern if you know what I mean. Maybe I'm too used to the original?

it does sound a little too distorted at times, but i'm used to it since i usually play some of those riffs myself

I kinda agree (sorry for unearthing that thread but the new DAATH album has been released recently so...).
Though that was a cool idea, and this production definitely fits the new DAATH material IMO.
