7/10 CRUSHED FUCKING SKULLS
I'm not sure how to even describe this one, which is a challenge I rarely get. Maybe one part Demilich, one part Autopsy, one part Cryptopsy, and one part prog rock? It's dirty, filthy, disgusting death metal but with a clear penchant for experimentation, and not to the detriment of the metal at hand. Off-kilter beats combine with deviously simple riffs. The drummer is doing a lot of the heavy lifting here, and the bass guitarist is no slouch either, widdling away behind the guitars like a madman. Of course, just when I mention deceptively simple riffs, they hit me with the song "Temporarily Beheaded" with its Cryptopsy-eque arrangements. All the songs are definitely quite distinct from one another, that's for goddamn sure, as no two of them are even close to sounding alike. This is truly unique, and no band sounds like this in today's scene whatsoever. This one's for you sick metalists that require something a bit unusual, and this will definitely fit that bill.
