6/10 CRUSHED FUCKING SKULLS
This EP is Begrime Exemious's first new music in three years. The two new tracks here are incredible, with absolutely amazing riffs and perfect songwriting, hallmarks of a band at the peak of their creative power. I just wish we had another pair of new songs here, at least. We're also treated to four cover songs and a 2016 rendition of "The Ghost Brigades." The cover songs are from Carcass, Nunslaughter, Bolt Thrower, and Entombed, four bands which you can hear in this band's sound. They manage to take the Carcass song and truly make it their own while clearly trying to stay true to the original. It's a great rendition that melds well with their style. The other cover songs also have this same twist to them, but they don't camouflage as easily. Overall this is a worthy release if you're a fan clamoring for new material from the band, but if you're a casual fan, you may want to track down a full length of theirs instead.
