10/10 CRUSHED FUCKING SKULLS
A new band comprised of scene veterans, Protrusion explodes from the Indiana underground with this new release on Sevared, and it's a mighty release! The band have current members of Human Filleted in its ranks, and other bands they are or have been in include Sarcophagy, Sadichist, Between the Killings, Gorgasm, Emulsified, Found Hanging, and many more, according to the Archives. This album reminds me of the classic Midwest sound, and in the best of ways, from the largely mid-paced approach to the writing of actual songs with catchy riffs. It reminds me of the mid-1990s specificially, and the material coming out of the area then. The album as a whole completely blew me away. The vocals are all guttural but are done using actual discernable vocal patterns that elevate them beyond mere background noise for the sake of having vocals. They are important and are given a proper bit of thought in the writing process. So many bands don't care about the vocals when they're doing gutturals, but this band is a huge exception to that rule. They prove that even gutturals can be expressive and well-planned like any other style of vocal. If you want straight forward and brutal death metal the way it used to be played when all the bands had a different sound, then this is for you. Everything about it is perfectly executed, right down to the production, and I could listen to this over and over again. This is one for the true deathmaniacs and deadbangers!
