Cannibal Corpse 1991:
This
is Cannibal Corpse's 2nd release, and the one that really started
the BOYCOTT CANNIBAL CORPSE campaign. Just the front cover(it rocks!) made
the "normal" people quake in their boots.
So the CD was banned my most major labels and the lyrics wasn't printed.
Hey, they even removed the real cover and put in a wierd black one instead!
Musically, it's a progress from the cheesy Eaten back to life, production
is way better, guitars are more powerful, and drums are more balansed.
Chris sounds angrier than ever, and none other than Glen Benton of Deicide
has guest growls on Vomit the Soul(or was it that one? correct me if im
wrong!).
Still, the problem of making the songs sound different and stand out for
themselves remain. Cannibal Corpse was a pretty small death-metal band
in 1991, and they still weren't very experienced with writing music and
recording it. Anyway, this album is prety good, wouldn't call it great,
but Meat Hook Sodomy is just so fucking great! Maybe their best
song(after Hammer Smashed Face of course).
