About The EP Artwork:
The album artwork by Armaada Art depicts a scene that does a great job portraying the EP title. With pieces of flesh and body parts scattered throughout a grim setting, and the skull being ripped in half center stage, listeners will get the tone being set by this release.
The album as a whole (LYRICALLY & MUSICALLY):
This album is what happens when two people come together who have a passion for making heavy music simply because it brings us great joy to make. We love listening to and creating brutal music. We love the sound of raw, straightforward production and slamming riffs. This really shows musically on this album, as it is comprised of a combination of slamming riffs, blast beats, and groovy sections. Lyrical and theming influence for the music comes from a combination of horror movies, actual events, or stories based on torture, murder, etc.
Track by track (LYRICALLY & MUSICALLY)
1. “Engorged with Hatred” explores the depths of rage and loathing within the human experience. Sonically, you’ll hear a build-up similar to growing up in the human experience. Explosions and collisions along the way. This song explores multiple different styles of grooves and riffs. Ranging from slams, thrashy sections, polka beats, driving beats reminiscent of Motorhead, and of course triplet breakdowns and pinch harmonics. At the end of the track, you’re hit with brutal double kicks and chainsaw-like high-gain guitars, setting the tone for the EP.
2. “Vile Rotting Mass” depicts the grotesque decay of a once-vibrant entity, exploring hopelessness, death, and decomposition. This song starts off with a brutal lo-fi Slam riff into a head-spinning intro that will surely make the ancient primate within you want to dance. The song then explores different riffs including hardcore-like riffs fused with the classic Slam we all know and love. The “classic Slam riff” will be mentioned a lot! Don’t forget blast beats either. Nothing wrong with too many blast beats. This song then leads you into a swing section reminiscent of mid-century America. If you aren’t exsanguinated by two minutes into the song, you’ll hear slam/brutal death metal legend, Angel Ochoa (Cephalotripsy, Abominable Putridity, Disgorge) spit the filthiest vocals known to man over once again, that classic Slam riff.
3. The song “Savage Evisceration” finds its inspiration in themes of brutality and carnage, violent acts, and the raw, primal instincts that drive them, exploring human nature and aggression. This track hits you hard right away. A riff that will make any caveman shit his pants. Over the top, you’ll hear JP unleash hell on the world with his piercing and grueling vocals.
4. “The Stench of Decaying Flesh” serves as the title track of the project. It paints a grim picture of the suffering and pain that can be inflicted upon people, and the stench that exudes from their rotting corpses. Chainsaws and slow heavy guitars. That’s what will infect your ears upon first starting this song. Into another head-spinning slammy section you’ll be transported to the perspective of the victim at the beginning of the song. Blasting, groove, brutality. The Stench of Decaying Flesh brings just that. At the end of the journey, you will be pounded by huge sub drops and the demonic vocals from beneath performed by Azerate Namakura (Ungraceful).
5. “Severed Limbs, Mangled Remains” is inspired by the graphic aftermath of conflict and disaster, horror, human suffering, and the enduring impact of violence. And also severed body parts. This song was heavily inspired by Slam royalty, Vasculitis. At the time of writing this album, Mitchell was heavy into Vasculitis. Expect everything you would want from a band in our genre. Blasts, breakdowns, slams, slow-downs. This track really shows the ability of Mitchell and JP to create parts that really blend together. JP’s vocals fuse into the track to become another instrument. A groovy break in the song signals the start of California legend, Richard Smihula (Desectomy) to end with a hard-hitting slam that will definitely have you exsanguinated by now if you aren’t already.
5. “Bodies Open Easier Than You’d Think” is a fun song with a very straightforward subject, it’s very easy to open a body. Whether it be surgical tools, a knife, or even bullets, human skin and muscle isn’t that strong. This song is also a reminder to us and anyone else that we are all living our own journey. We all have our own perspectives. We are all somehow living together on a huge rock floating through an infinite universe. To sum that all up, “we ain’t shit”. This song has been released for quite a while now so hopefully if you’re reading this you have heard it. The track takes you through different moments of beatdown, slam, and thrash. Ending with a car crashing breakdown filled with double kicks faster than a hummingbird’s wings.
6. “Meat Cleaver Meltdown” is the culmination of what happens when you just can’t take it anymore. This is another track with a very straightforward subject matter: if someone reaches a breaking point then you don’t want to be around them especially when they’re holding a freshly sharpened meat cleaver. Ah yes, we all love the evil butcher. This last track is another one that will have any caveman getting down. Inspired by the almighty Suffocation, but with a modern slam twist. This song is powerful, making the listener feel like they’re the king or queen of the world. Or underworld. And of course, finishing you off with one last brutal Slam.
