Nella mia precedente porcata sui Carcass qualcuno di voi, in sede di commento, ha scritto "Tra poco saremo il primo sito al mondo a proporre recensioni di TUTTE le opere necrogrind degne di nota. Yeh". (Cit. Algol). Uno stimolo in più per proseguire il mio percorso demoniaco.

Tocca ai Cannibal Corpse ed al loro omonimo esordio su cassetta; vomitato nei primi mesi del 1989 con una registrazione che definire schifosa, in quanto a qualità uditiva, è riduttivo. Gli inventori del Brutal Death incidono cinque brani, tutti ripresi e riregistrati nell'esordio discografico dell'anno seguente.

La violenza grottesca dei testi, la totale ripugnanza del loro suono colpisce da subito con cinica barbaria. C'è poco da star tranquilli con brani che parlano di "Un teschio pieno di vermi", di "Pezzi sanguinanti" di "Resti sparsi, cervelli spappolati".

Il vocalist Chris è un amante del cinema splatter e della letteratura gore; a tal proposito dichiara "Mi interessa capire cosa spinge i serial killers ad uccidere e che cosa trovano di così appagante nel farlo". Contento tu...

La sua voce è per una volta comprensibile; molto lontano dall'orribile growl che adotterà con l'esordio sulla lunga distanza dei Cannibal: un grugnito modulato impossibile da comprendere.

"A Skull Full of Maggots" è una mazzata che ti apre il cranio: un sound cimiteriale da incubo, con annessi zombie putrescenti che fuoriescono dalla gelida terra. Seguono gli altri brani dove regna un livello cacofonico così estremo come non ho mai più udito in nessun altro demo...GRINDGOREAPHOBIA...

Per la gioia di amanti del genere, grandi e piccini.

Ad Maiora.

Elenco tracce e testi

01   A Skull Full of Maggots (02:08)

Lying there cold after a torturous death
Your life ended fast you took your last breath
Dead in a grave, your final place
The maggots infest your disfigured face
Puss through your veins takes the place of blood
Decay sets in, bones begin to crack
Thrown six feet down left to rot
Brains oozing black down the side of your broken neck

Skull full of maggots

They enter your tomb-maggots-beginning to feast-maggots
Crawling on you-maggots-now they eat you-maggots
Rotting maggots-maggots-infesting your corpse-maggots
Parasites of the dead-maggots-now dwell in your head

Lying there cold after a torturous death
Your life ended fast you took your last breath
Dead in a grave, your final place
The maggots infest your disfigured face
Puss through your veins takes the place of blood
Decay sets in, bones begin to crack
Thrown six feet down left to rot
Brains oozing black down the side of your broken neck

02   The Undead Will Feast (02:57)

Undead feast, as they tear upon your weak flesh
Terror builds, as the thought of being dead
Prophecy of the wisemen of old
Now comes true, as the corpses break the soil
Ancient spell breaks the sleep of the dead
The dead awake, what the populace is fearing
Panic strikes as the nations run in fear
Oceans boil with blood of human victims

Suicide, the only way to avoid being eaten by the undead
Grave yards coming alive with zombies, hungry for living flesh
Psychotic, transmuted corpses, upsuring the population
Sickening disaster of epidemic proportions, devouring us

Tables turn as a victim I've become now
State of death only waiting to return
Vital signs that show I'm dead
This can't happen, I'm rising from my own grave
Hunger grows not nutritionnal but instinctual
Flesh becomes my only crave of this live
Unthinking state, a state of metamorphosis
Seeking food to keep me dead

Degenerate, a product of man's frustration for his error
Insatiable hunger for mankind, building with each kill
Seeking human victims to meet my fill
Cannibal I've become, what's happened to my brain

Feast on the corpse, suck out his brain
As its fluids drip down the drain
Chew on the bones, drink from its bladder
The vile stench only makes me madder

In through the mouth, out the forehead
Brains fall out, skin turns red
Violent surge, a spear through the skull
Felt the urge, now my heart's full

I crave gore, I'll eat your guts

I love gore, blood drives me nuts
I drink blood, I don't like water
Intestines my cud, I feast in the slaughter
Twist its neck, make it crack

Suicide, the only way to avoid being eaten by the undead
Grave yards coming alive with zombies, hungry for living flesh
Psychotic, transmuted corpses, upsuring the population
Sickening disaster of epidemic proportions, devouring us

Blood I want to drink, I want to suck
Brains I want to eat, the rest I'll chuck
Bones into a spear, I'll carve and kill
Hunger for the quest, I'll never fill
Blood I want to drink, I want to suck
Brains I want to eat, the rest I'll chuck
Bones into a spear, I'll carve and kill
Hunger for the quest, I'll never fill

I crave gore, I'll eat your guts

03   Scattered Remains, Splattered Brains (02:37)

Prepare to witness a place of gore
Of legal dissection and blood on the floor
Carved up corpses, in the corner
Sliced up by a psychotic coroner
Slice, dice, chop them up haphazardly
Like laboratory mice
Splatter brain matter
Pound on the skull until it shatters

Hack, slice, chop, carve, rip and tear
Carving out your eyeballs, watch them sit and stare
Tear, rip, slice, carve, chop and hack
Toss them into a sack

Tags on bare feet, means a real treat,
To the butcher of human meat
Slice the throat from ear to ear,
Gallons of blood do appear
Veins exposed, torn from boddies,
The most interesting of hobbies
To get paid for such a task
Is more than any man could ask
Tags on bare feet, means a real treat,
To the butcher of human meat
Slice the throat from ear to ear,
Gallons of blood do appear

Prepare to witness a place of gore
Of legal dissection and blood on the floor
Carved up corpses, in the corner
Sliced up by a psychotic coroner
Slice, dice, chop them up haphazardly
Like laboratory mice
Splatter brain matter
Pound on the skull until it shatters

Hack, slice, chop, carve, rip and tear
Carving out your eyeballs, watch them sit and stare
Tear, rip, slice, carve, chop and hack
Toss them all into a sack

Ripping, tearing your skin turning red
Vile surgeon, knife cutting in
Skull cracking, to expose your brain
Evil doctor death drove him insane
Ripping, tearing your skin turning red
Vile surgeon, knife cutting in
Skull cracking, to expose your brain
Evil doctor death drove him insane

04   Put Them to Death (01:49)

Evil people with evil minds
Slaughter their victims with ripping knives
They should be caught and put to death
Strapped to the chair, they should die there
Evil people with evil minds
Slaughter their victims with ripping knives
They should be caught and put to death
Strapped to the chair, they should die there
Blood spewing from their eyes
As you here their sinful cries
Destroy their evil minds
We should take their fucking lives
They should be caught and punished
For what they have done

Torture them slowly it would be fun
Kill them all off one by one

Let them go - no torture them slow

Fuck you - and your kind
We don't need you, or your lives
Execute by injection
Execution by electrocution

Evil people with evil minds
Slaughter their vitims with ripping knives
They should be caught and put to death
Strapped to the chair, they should die there

05   Bloody Chunks (02:21)

Walking down the street, the smell of death in the air
What a rotting stench
My imagination runs wild at what it could be
Open up the can to discover a dead body

Or what was left of one, pieces in a bag
Blood is everywhere what a retched sight
Cut up really small by a razor sharp knife
Lying in the garbage no one else knows
What I have found, what should I do
Take it to the police or make it into stew
This was an evil committed by the insane
Looking down laughing, I am the same

The sight of death drives me nuts, I must kill
To control my brain
Swept away by my lust to cause pain,
Mutilation is my only want

The evil inside me gives me the strength
To kill at will
My life is the means to cause death
In the most sinister way

I see it in your eyes the fear that keeps me alive
I'll take it away, your life will end today
I'll leave you to rot, what a sick odor
Scream all you want, but you can't stop this horror

Tasting your life as I drink your blood
Ripping out your insides, chewing on your spleen
Dead or living flesh is what I crave
I'll kill someone or eat from a grave
