8/10 CRUSHED FUCKING SKULLS
I don't know if I've ever heard a brutal death metal band from South Korea before - I can't recall any. This reminds me of Dying Fetus musically and vocally, but there's almost an Indonesian style of brutality going on here as well. The songs are quite good, and they really sink in on multiple listens. There are plenty of little catchy hooks in the midst of all the wildly technical playing. The musicianship on display is astounding - we even get great guitar solos in some songs, which is very unusual for brutal death metal. It speaks to a depth of composition that most bands cannot summon. If you, like me, are sick of all the Devourment clones and Disgorge clones in the scene, this is one band that will act as a palate cleanser, and it's worth going to the effort to track down their material.
