Despite its difficulty, the album’s unique mood and intricate compositions earn it a top rating. Dive into Decaying Form’s chaotic and revolutionary Brutal Death Metal—listen to ‘Chronicles Of Decimation’ now!
I have rarely heard songs so well made: the initial part of 'Suicide Grotesque' throws you into a labyrinth of despair and suffering from which there is no way out. 'Not A Gleam Of Hope' depresses rather than arouses nihilism—mortifying photographs of failures with no happy ending, indeed, no ending at all.

"'Wanderings' is depressive even though it’s simply an introspection that’s not clownish at all." "An album that anticipated its time by at least five years and still does not receive the merits it deserves but can only be defined with the word masterpiece."

The structure of the songs, while not elaborated, is the result of songwriting whose spontaneity, and in some ways, smoothness cannot be understated. I found it very courageous indeed to choose to go back to the old New York sound in a year like 2006.

Inhuman Dissilency’s record isn’t just about wanting to 'thrash'; it’s senseless violence, a punishment without rhyme or reason that one can endure only if endowed with adequate masochism. Digested Flesh doesn’t drive me crazy; their songs are always hard to distinguish from each other, and the riffing seems really uninspired to me.

Cryptopsy have made their choices, and I have made mine; one (for the career). No definition fits this CD better than the one that the good accountant Fantozzi used to describe 'The Battleship Potemkin': an enormous crap.

From Argentina comes the new quintessence of musical uselessness, the new absence of inspiration, the new AudioJoke. "A Parasite Called Human" is a single track almost an hour long... those who try to wear out the listener demonstrate that they don’t have many other arrows in their quiver.

The review harshly criticizes Funerary Ward's 2004 album "A Parasite Called Human" for lacking creativity, poor sound quality, and an unnecessarily long single track. While the artist aims for a drone doom dark ambient style, the execution falls flat with repetitive, uninspired riffs and weak instrumental work. The reviewer suggests the work would have benefitted from a shorter, more focused approach. Ultimately, the album is deemed a failed attempt at avant-garde extremity. Read the full review and listen to Funerary Ward's challenging drone doom journey to decide if it's avant-garde or simply exhausting.
'Stagnated Existence' is a great return, not a fossilization. Disavowed has released two Brutal albums that are identical to a thousand other Brutal albums and are therefore better than all the others.

Origin are incredibly fast, therefore they rock. 'Antithesis' is a shining example of how Brutal knows how to evolve; in my attempt to become an up-to-date metalhead, I listened to 'Antithesis' and evolved.
