Fleshcrawl - Descend into the Absurd (1992)
Murky, doom-ridden old school German death metal. Caveman riffs, reverb-heavy production, disgusted vocals. If you've only heard their later, more melodic/generic material, let me assure you -- Descend into the Absurd is first-rate stuff.
Track listing:
1. Between Shadows They Crawl
2. Phrenetic Tendencies
3. Perpetual Dawn
4. Purulent Bowel Erosion
5. Lost in a Grave
6. Never to Die Again
7. Festering Flesh
8. Infected Subconscious
9. Evoke the Excess
The chambers of incineration

Meh. But I am more into Swedish death metal, although it''s repeating itself like it seems.
ReplyDeleteWell, I dig it. It's not groundbreaking, but if you're a sucker for this sound like I am, it's gold. I like their second album a lot, too, consider checking that out!
DeleteI will, I will... :-) Just did
ReplyDeleteMade of Flesh has that old skool Entombed sound, same studio?
One of the biggest problems Dmetal musicians have is their total lack of a sense of humour, I get bored with the albums after 2 songs..
Then you, my friend don't understand death metal.
DeletePeople are still fighting for Swedish,Finnish,us DM? Lol
ReplyDeleteCan we get a reupload on this one? Thanks
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to determine if Fleshcrawl's fourth album Bloodred Massacre falls into the melodic/generic category. I hope not because I like it even more than the previous Bloodsoul. Perhaps it's on the fringe.
ReplyDeleteA great example of full-blown generic melodic is Amon Amarth's Twilight of the Thunder God. That stuff is so melodic it's poppy.
