AVULSED "Nullo (The Pleasure Of Self-Mutilation) - Review.

Photobucket

These Spanish maniacs have been spewing forth their brand of sickening old school death metal since 1992. Heavy as fuck with a mixture of Swedish, American, Finnish and even the UK death bands on Earache and Peaceville labels back in the day. This fucker has 17 songs of total sickness. Album opener "Breaking Hymens" is a new death metal anthem! One thing about Avulsed is they know how to be brutal as fuck and rip your face off yet remain catchy and memorable as well. "Killing After Death" is more death metal madness. Avulsed manage to switch between the great mid paced riff bangers that makes you want to bang your head off to. And also get ripping with a fast banger part as well and be just as deadly. The production is killer with banging drums and the guitars are heavy as fuck. Dave Rotten's vocals are mostly guttural (in an old school way) and sick as fuck on here. "Maggotfilled", "Voracious Backpacker", the title track, "Nazino(Cannibal Hell)", "Fair Flesh Obsession", "Penectomia", "Infernal Haemorroids(Part 2), "Chestblood", "She's Hot Tonight(In My Oven)" are the remaining songs on this disgusting album of sickness. Each song has the same catchy and awesome death metal (and some of those song titles just fucking rule!) The next few songs "River Runs Red", "Foetal Consolation", and "Unconscious Pleasure" are from their 2006 best of compilation "Reanimations". As are the 3 cover songs "Piranha" by Exodus, "I Wanna Be Somebody by WASP and "Mental Misery" by Gorefest. The Avulsed songs are more of the same killer sickness we have come to expect from these maniacs. The cover songs are killer for Exodus and Gorefest (especially! Sounds like the original!) The WASP cover is hilarious and is for drunk sing a longs only! But that's fine hahahaha. Overall, this fucker kicks ass! It might sound the same after a bit, but there are so many killer riffs on here who fucking cares! This is out on Ibex Moon Records.
