12Gauge Rampage-Unleash the Rage album review. FFO: Brutal Slam and DeathGrind insanity.

This ripper of an album dropped this week and personifies all the degenerate madness of both Slam and Brutal Death metal with definite goregrind influence as well. This is 11 tracks of insane, Aussie as fuck extreme metal that totally slays. The pace is mad, the drummer sounds like he is on meth and the singer sounds possessed by at least 15 different demons. Oh yes, and it has no guitar. And it works like a dream, you have zero time to take any air and your head will probably fall off from the catchiness and sheer brutality of it all. Like many bands from Australia, there is no time for the subtle intricacies and it is totally about pushing musical boundaries and keeping everything abrasive. I love how the whole release is so biting and acidic, but at the same time, these boys know how to write tracks that sit in your brain for ages. The album passes by very quickly but washes you in sweet gore and filth like a classic Cannibal Corpse or Morbid Angel album. For a new band, this is a hell of a debut album and yet again states that Australia is producing some of the best extreme metal in the world at the moment. This is a killer release.
