Brutal Bands

  • Incinerate “Dissecting The Angels”

    Dissecting the Angels saw the light of day in 2002 on Brutal Bands records. If you are a fan of Anal Blast or Skinless or any other Midwest band who enjoyed opening slots at any one of Jack Koshick’s multiple shitfests, the chances of you requiring an introduction this St. Paul Minnesota four piece are [...]

  • Stabwound “Human Boundaries”

    Many distros describe this release as "slammin’ brutal death metal from Sweden." I couldn’t think of a more of an oxymoron or a paradoxical statement except maybe for "tasty liver and onions," "aromatic unwiped ass," and "feel good movie of the year" ‘House of a Thousand Corpses.’" There has been a recent rise in Swedish [...]

  • Emeth “Reticulated”

    I had initially confused this with the band Enmity, a horrible band from somewhere in the United States. But, damn was I surprised when I threw this disc in. An absolutely brutal slab of death metal that would make many of their U.S. counterparts feel a little soft, kind of like when watching a good [...]

  • Element (US) “Aeons Past”

    There seems to be a decent amount of very strong technical death metal acts arising lately. Decrepit Birth, Odious Mortem, and Anomalous are just a few that come to mind recently, all of which are on the more brutal side of the spectrum. With the exception of Anomalous, there is a big Suffocation vibe going [...]

  • Devourment “Butcher The Weak”

    No, your eyes aren’t deceiving you, this is another review of Devourment’s latest full length offering Butcher The Weak, however, there’s two differences between this version, released on Brutal Bands, and the 2005 self-titled offering; it’s a completely re-recorded version of the exact same album and this version has a yellow cover instead of the [...]

  • Anomalous “Cognitive Dissonance”

    Every so often I randomly come across a band by pure accident or chance that happens to blow me the fuck away. I usually never hear any praise for them, and they slip under most people’s radios with very little fanfare. Anomalous is such a band. I heard from an acquaintance that Anomalous played technical brutal [...]

  • Abysmal Torment “Incised Wound Suicide”

    With my interest in brutal death metal waning greatly in recent years I admit to being less than excited when four discs from a label named Brutal Bands showed up in my post office box a few months ago. I’d put off reviewing the material because I figured I’d have no interest in it [...]
