This is pretty much what modern slam should sound like. Abominable Putridity used to be one of every other slam band around. Didn't stand out much, sounded just like any slam band, and didn't make it that far. Now, with this release, I would like to say that this band is anything but shit. Pure ingeniousness went into this album, and that's purely what it is.
I did like the previous album, but this is no doubt WAY more improved. First off, the vocals. They couldn't have found a better vocalist. Matti Way does an absolutely solid job handling vocal duties.
He has a lot of skills in his screams, and also has a variation of different sounding vocals which also make them much more bearable. Of any slam band, I've never heard more diverse vocals from a group.
The guitars are are fucking excellent here. Some very good riffs. It's not just the same monotonous shit being repeated. These are very diverse, and very well composed guitar parts. Very melodic while still maintaining their signature slam style. The drumming is amazing, to say the least.
Extremely fast, precise, and consistent. They also made it fit with the guitar parts very well. Each instrument flows excellently with one another. Unfortunately, as you may have already assumed, there is no bass to speak of which disappoints me because I definitely think the bassist is just as capable as the guitarists and his talent could be heard had it been made hearable in the production.
Now for the production. Wow, just wow. One of the best produced albums I've ever heard, and that is an understatement. Everything sounds excellent. Certainly way better than most other slam death metal album productions.
It's also mixed pretty well so you can hear most everything equally, save for the bass. But why this album is so good is because it's more than just slam. It stands out so much more than any other slam I've ever heard. In conclusion, if you want to hear a top notch, creative, and well produced album, then this is no doubt your solution. Whilst brutal death metal has been around for a seemingly amount of time, only in the last few years has it really increased in size of bands and releases, especially due to the surge in slam bands.
Whilst many repeat what's already been done and Abominable Putridity have crafted a masterpiece in brutal death. Weighing in at 25 minutes this album is shorter than most albums in the genre, but it short length is definitely made up in it's brutality and exciting song writing.
The music itself is very complex for slam turning not just slow to fast, it often changes rhythms in terms of triples and shows to be very advanced in song writing there is no linear A-B-A-B song structures here, just a mess of chugs in creative rhythms followed by blasts. No section is ever drawn out and it never feels repetitive. Whilst many bands are criticized for their use of samples in drums, I applaud it the heaviness and thunder it creates is phenomenal and the vocals are unmatched by many bands the range and the creativity is impressive.
The guitars are never usually too noticeable in this genre but they fit very well in this album, well recorded and the riffs compliment the drums and the vocals nicely. The technicality is also impressive whilst there are simple chugs, included are also fast sweeps and riff-ing to a quality of many technical death metal bands. Slam is a genre often criticized for it's simplicity, it's the genre metal heads often hate for this.
But Abominable Putridity perform to such a standard that is on par with respected bands such as Dying Fetus, Nile or Cattle Decapitation. This is why I applaud this album and rate it so highly, it's not only raised the bar for slamming brutal death metal, it's encouraged a whole heap of new bands to create as brutal albums to be the relevant on the scene, many of these bands signed to the bands label Inherited Suffering records. Overall I'd definitely recommend to anyone who likes death metal, as it's only been out a year and has been so influential, think of what it will do in years to come I consider myself a reasonably patriotic American when it comes to a lot of things, but one exception I tend to make is for brutal death metal.
Perhaps it's my general aversion to bands with either slam or deathcore influences, but most of what makes waves in this style on my side of the Atlantic tends to get the cold shoulder.
Abominable Putridity doesn't necessarily grab my attention with their incredibly generic name, but the hype surrounding this album with its inclusion of well-respected American phlegm-gargler Matti Way definitely proved to peek my curiosity, not to mention talk of a somewhat more varied approach to this style that moves away from the redundancy of American brutality withouth technicality of late.
Production wise, this listens pretty close to the clarity and nastiness of Suffocation's later 90s output with a slightly more mechanized character, helped along quite a bit by a riff set that's a tad bit more formulaic, but still far busier than the usual drudgery associated with this style lately.
In actuality, this bears a pretty strong resemblance to the most recent output of Dying Fetus, complete with the suddenly lead sweeps and scale runs that are frequent enough to spice things up, but noticeably not as indulgent as Arsis' "We Are The Nightmare". In January , vocalist Matti Way who is also the current vocalist of Pathology and the former vocalist of Disgorge, Cinerary and Liturgy joined the band. The band signed with the label Brutal Bands in , recording a 3 tracks demo simply called as Promotional CD Koubiachvili Alexander - drums present.
Intracranial Parasite 2. Emtrails Full of Vermin 3. Blindfold Surgery 4. As the newest addition to the list of bands to keep your eyes on, if Abominable Putridity was capable of such drastic improvement this time around, it's exciting to think of what may go on to achieve next.
