What do you think you can expect from a band formed with ex-MASSACRE, DEATH, SIX FEET UNDER, OBITUARY, WOMBBATH, SKINEATER (and the list goes on..) members ? A band from Florida.. that is moreover named after a MASSACRE's song .. INHUMAN CONDITION .. ?
YES, you got it ! DEATH fuckin' METAL the old-school way like we really digged it in the early 90's, that's to say something pounding, heavy, threatening with always that melodic and vicious side - to be honest, this brings me back to such gems as "Leprosy", "From Beyond", "Spiritual Healing" and "Slowly We Rot"... The Florida touch !
I can imagine some of you may think "that's nothing new".... indeed.. that's nothing new, but the trio really does the job, and this is an album I really enjoy from the beginning to the end ! The guys are obviously no newborn babies and they perfectly know the subject, they're FUCKIN'good at what they do and all songs are a fist in your face.. always well-balanced with mid & fast tempos, some unexpected tempo-changes here and there, of course with raw scratched vocals, sick guitar solos and relying on simple and memorable structures, that's precisely all I have always loved about DEATH METAL, this comes from the GUTS and it's led by INSTINCT ! This album brings much more than a simple nostalgic aspiration, we feel there the know-how of a band whose members breathe, eat, live "death-metal" for so many years.. You can't be disappointed if you like your Death Metal simple, straight to the point, raw, brutal and efficient ! Go worship the Rat°God now !

Fabien

Born 1969, grew up with the NWOBHM sounds, musically educated with cult french magazines that were ENFER and METAL ATTACK, definitely nailed to the style when "The Number Of The Beast" by IRON MAIDEN was released... From 1982, it was clear life would never be the same ! Young & getting wild to the HEAVY sounds of SAXON, VENOM, BLACK SABBATH, MOTORHEAD, Young Fab also discovered thanks to school mates the NOISE, FILTH & FURY of Hard-Core/Punk bands like G.B.H, DISCHARGE, BROKEN BONES but also CRO-MAGS, BAD BRAINS, FUGAZI... and later on, through the 90's, everything that was ALTERNATIVE, EXPERIMENTAL, GRUNGE, INDUSTRIAL (SONIC YOUTH, NINE INCH NAILS, SOUDGARDEN, ALICE IN CHAINS)... Passion & curiosity grew up as years went by ... Fate was SEALED... no turning back ! No Music = No Life !
