Sometimes you sit there and regret the things you didn’t do. I, for one, regret that I did not pick up Dying Fetus’ third album, ‘Killing in Adrenaline’ back in 1998. So, hooray for re-releases!
Bluntly put, this is one motherf*cker of a death metal album. It has a perfect balance of groove and technicality that sounds fresh even in this day and age.
Just check out the death metal epic Procreate the Malformed. Phenomenal music!
It’s warm, it’s groovy, it’s brutal as f*ck.
There is one drawback, and, sadly, it happens to be a major one: I HATE the snare drum sound! And there is, needless to say, a lot of snare drum on this album.
BUT, if you have made the same mistake as I and not listened to this album a decade ago, then do it now!
P.S. Do not buy the album for the DVD bonus disc. The material on there is of fairly poor quality both sound and image wise. You should probably have been there…
