CANNIBAL CORPSE "Butchered At Birth" [12" LP, Red/Black Smoke Vinyl]
1991 - Death Metal from United States
Detailed Description
35th Anniversary Edition. Resplendently repugnant, Cannibal Corpse's 1991 sophomore LP is where the group shed the early thrash-isms of the previous year's Eaten Back to Life to instead serve up the rawest death-metal album up to that point. Drummer Paul Mazurkiewicz recalled that writing sessions had them stiving to become "the most brutal band on earth," and songs like "Meat Hook Sodomy" certainly thrive in the extreme. Between its ruthlessly cut-throat lyrics, Chris Barnes' game-changing gutturals, the unendingly extreme performances and Butchered's memorably depraved artwork, Corpse quickly became the band to beat in the Nineties. Still fresh 35 years after its Birth.
