The new CD 'Slaughtercult' by
Exhumed will definitely not
be suited for people with a weak nervous system. The cover artwork presents already a
very tasteful mixture of blood, flesh and broken glass, the backcover shows the three
musicians taking a refreshing blood shower. The musical transformation of this artwork
is of course quite extreme. The 13 songs are all held at an extremely high speed, varying
between very fast Thrash Metal and Death Metal. The vocals are done by two singers; the
first one has an excellent screamingDeath Metal voice, the second one is a classic Grindcore
grunter. The lyrics are quite disgusting and present death as the ultimate goal of life.
The sound production, that Nasum mastermind Mieszko Talarzyk was responsible for, is on a very
high level, too. I only wonder how only three musicians may be able to play such intense,
but complicated structures. After 35 minutes, you are lucky when you have survived this
musical alignment of blood, gore and devastation withouth any physical or psychic injuries.
