THE ALBUM OF THE DAY IS… CANNIBAL CORPSE, KILL
“SSSSSUUUUFFFEEEERRRRR!!!!” Thank God for this fucking record. At their absolute finest, CC have never been anything less than Slayer on steroids, and this album was a true return to form upon its release last year. You can’t release an album called Kill without making a pretty powerful statement, and that the band did. Erik Rutan’s production sounds like the end of the world and if there’s a more bad assed singer in death metal right now than the Corpsegrinder, I don’t know him. “The Time To Kill Is Now” and singles “Death Walking Terror” and “Make them Suffer” feature American riffs that are exactly as they should be: fast, heavy, and completely out of fucking control. CC have never been as experimental and envelope-pushing as, say, that other death metal outfit with initials “CC,” but who cares? To paraphrase Adam Sandler, this album makes me wanna stab someone to death… with my dick. Not that I don’t usually wanna do that anyways.
