Decent brutal death metal indie. While they're by no means exclusively slow, I do like that there's not a lot of blasting and they seem to favor slow and mid-paced tempos. The slow stuff (particularly on the early tracks) almost has a deathdoom feel to it, which I wish there was even more of. In general I hear vague similarities to the mid-paced George-era Cannibal Corpse stuff, but otherwise, while this is hardly original sounding, any influences are so mixed it's hard to make direct band comparisons.
There's a long 8th unlisted track which has about 20 minutes of audio of the band playing foosball. Keep in mind, this alone runs longer than all of the previous songs COMBINED. I realize it's there as more of an inside joke, but I thought it was dorky. But it's your own CD, do what you want.
The end of the extra track has a cover of Bonnie Tyler's "Holding Out for a Hero." I'm glad they actually listed writing credits for it in the liner notes, because even with the silly "Doo doo doo"s, it's completely unrecognizable to me. Because of that, don't really have any strong opinion on it, as it just sounds like a random demo or reh. death/grind track they stuck at the end.
Nice little find for the price.
