Regurgitation - Clitoraldectomy

Short and sweet at it's best. If Cannibal Corpse went grind this is what it would sound like. The bands name, album title and song titles is a perfect description of their sound. Dirty, disgusting and raw as stomach acid in the back of your throat. At first glance I thought this band was gonna be straight grind, but I was wrong. They are definately heavily inspired by death metal and the Suffocation cover of Infecting the Crypts is the icing on this putrid cake.

Vocals remind me of Corpsegrinder but in an inspired way. Usually don't like when vocalist constantly do vocals but in this band I feel it's awesome and adds to not only the intensity but to that raw tone. Guitar tone is very dirty but defined enough to follow the rythm. Nice tremolo and rythm riffs with well placed lead runs that add that something extra to this type of music. Surprisingly the solos are great on this album. Great melody and clarity and no noodling. Very well done solos with feel and technicality. Fingering the Rot @ 1:50 is a good example of this. Another great solo is on Fornication With A Decomposing Stump @ 2:32. I wouldn't be scared to say I bet this guy is influenced by James Murphy. Not to fond of the pinch harmnoic execution. Sorta random and not placed very well. Snare sound is very crisp, tight and great. Not sure if they used a click track because I feel on the fast parts the drummer gets off meter. I'd like to see how good his gravity blasts improve on the next record. They get the job done but don't line up as much as I'd like.

Overall a very well done death grind album that is relentlessly raw and brutal. I look forward to their next release very much.
