Double Ds

  • Viogression “Expound & Exhort”

    Not often enough does someone dig deep into the beginnings of death metal and pull out a real gem. And it is odd to think that you and four other people share the same enjoyment of this disc, revel in its glory, and smother one’s crotch with relish. Viogression’s Expound & Exhort is one of [...]

  • Atrocity “Hallucinations”

    I have done nothing but tout this as one of the best death metal albums (along with follow up Longing for Death) and have caught some guff for it, to which I say, “Your sister’s ass.” This is a means of dismissal and frustration in the Italian-American culture. This frustration comes from what many people [...]

  • Impaled “The Last Gasp”

    For some reason, Impaled was never on my death metal radar. I am not sure if it was due to reading reviews and seeing the frequent references to Carcass, a band I have only come to appreciate when I was older. Or, it could have been because of that album cover that had someone shitting [...]

  • Abominable Putridity “In The End Of Human Existence”

    Two pretzels walk into a bar – one was as-salted! I figured I would begin with a joke because I have run out of snazzy intros. And just like this stale joke and others that your uncle tells at parties, much of the brutal death metal sound has gone the way of four fifteen year [...]

  • Boris “Pink”

    Any reference to “pink” in the minds of most people into underground metal might obviously point to a beloved part of the female genitalia. Here, it may be a reference to the piece of skin that connects the male bag to the rim. Boris have enlightened the world with a disc that fills the void [...]

  • Condemned “Desecrate The Vile”

    Condemned is quite the popular name. Initially, I had thought it was the wily band from Texas from years back. Alas, it was a newer band from California. Although I have never been in a band or been part of the naming process, I figured this process would be fun. Band names like “Night Fondler,” [...]

  • Necrotic Disgorgement “Suffocated In Shrinkwrap”

    As soon as I saw the title of this cd, I immediately thought of that cult classic movie Black Christmas and that scene where you see that woman wrapped in Saran Wrap thought the attic window, you know to keep the freshness in. I had bought this disk at a show after Will Rahmer of [...]

  • Digested Flesh “The Answer To Infection”

    Recently, for the first time in quite a while, I attended a show. Since my theory is that as you get older, one should leave show attendance to the younger people, as I feel I have put my time in. In addition, it feels a bit weird when most of the people at the show [...]

  • Cock And Ball Torture “Egoleech”

    Well, dip my ass in chocolate and call me Nestle, this is one powerful album. Some of you diehards Cock And Ball Torture fans may look upon me with disdain; like the "nu-school" of metal-heads who like post-None So Vile Cryptopsy better. Sorry, my friends. I have been a Cock And Ball Torture fan since [...]

  • Cerebral Effusion “Smashed And Splattered Organs”

    People used to mock me for my fondness for Spanish death metal in the mid to late 1990s. The term "Suffocation-clone" was thrown around so much it was quite annoying. In order to be this type of clone, you have to be quite talented and most of these bands just didn’t have it. But they [...]
