Review

This is music that fits both the artwork and the EP's name. I saw the artwork and didn't even bother listening to a sample first, I knew I was likely to like what's inside. This is a very short release, a 7" label reissue of the 2022 demo, that starts off with a creepy intro before diving into raw, putrid, dirty, basic, buzzing death metal. It's more mid-paced and doesn't rely much on speed, but rather letting the malevolent-sounding raw guitars do most of the talking, with some growls that are a little back in the mix and sound just as raw as the music. It's not pretty, it's almost caveman-like, but it does hit the spot if you want something as raw and basic as it gets. Too bad it's so short.
