THE REVIEW
Here they are again among us, the champions of the most splattery Brutal Death metal!
Even more direct ("in the face" seems to be the formula used in these cases), starting with the title, "Kill", short and almost sounding like a command.
A small personal aside for the cover, which unfortunately this time will not delight us with disembowelment and the like, as it is a very simple blood-red background... what a pity. What luck, I spent twenty-one euros and with it comes also a live DVD in Strasbourg! And... noooo, the package opens in a weird way, with compartments that slide to the sides! Cool.
The style is the same as always (but how... not even an acoustic ballad?!), voice from beyond the grave and guitars precise as scalpels (how the hell do they do it?!) that draw turbo-heavy and dissonant riffs like boulders, tupatupa or papapapapapapa drumming strong with predictable but always effective tempo changes. The usual punch to the teeth, in short.
Giorgio Pescatore immediately launches with an angry scream in "The Time To Kill Is Now", a short and unhealthy song (the "whistling" guitar riff in the chorus is simply great!). Reviewing thirteen tracks would be quite a bore, so I will limit myself to pointing out the most, in my humble opinion, cannibalistic of the bunch (ignoring the fact that I think they are all awesome): the menacing stride of "Five Nails Through The Neck" and "Death Walking Terror", the classic "Necrosadistic Warning"... but come on, what a load of crap, they all sound the same in the end!
A massacre from beginning to end, period.
"Make them suffer! Make them suffer! Forever!"

By Bandana Joe
Few things express the blindest and grimmest rage, the uncontrolled fury, and the aberrant bellowing of the darkest parts of the human soul better than the music of Cannibal Corpse.
'Kill' is among these works, and Cannibal Corpse are the artisans and creators of a sound monster with simply extraordinary potential.
