PARRICIDE

This collective with a pesticidal name plays equally pesticidal Polish death metal. Fast, harsh, brutal. Brutal, harsh, fast... In principle, one could end the review right there, but self-respect demands at least twice the volume of verbal eruptions. So then, let us... discuss the cover art!!! On the cover, dear children, we see a depiction of two dead, half-decomposed men in the act of copulation. Rendered in red and yellow tones, the artwork is meant to reflect the fire of hatred burning in the musicians' defiant black hearts. Now let us... analyze the lyrics!!! In the lyrics, dear children, something unintelligible is being sung, as the black lips of the musicians communicate in indecipherable growls. Who just yelled "read the booklet"??? Save your clever remarks for somewhere else — there are no lyrics in the booklet. The reason: a thermonuclear legal conflict with the former vocalist. No, their former vocalist was not Chris Barnes, although the disc does include a nod to the last cannibals of this thoroughly civilized world — the cover of "Hammer Smashed Face" will leave no connoisseur of beauty indifferent. Thus, dear children, to whom can we recommend this disc??? To kitties? Correct, to kitties. To puppies? Correct, to puppies as well. Anyone else? The music director of the "Mayak" radio station??? Child, show some mercy. And stop poking your neighbor with that little knife already — we are, after all, thoroughly civilized people...
