After a trio of demented demo recordings, Peruvian death \/ grind merchants Dismorfia finally get round to spewing out their debut EP, Immortal Echoes From The Unknown<\/em>. Apart from the cover rendition of Mortician\u2019s \u2018Zombie Apocalypse\u2019 (which is very good) there are four nasty tracks to inhale and infect the lungs with.<\/p>\n

The vocals on this thing are growled through chunks of sick and bubbles of thick phlegm matched only in vileness by the fat, repugnant riffs, the ghastly blast beats and a bass tone that bludgeons. Everything about this release stinks of blubbery carvings of fat as each track has that pungent foulness before the pace is driven to a maniacal and membranous squabble.<\/p>\n

The way the instrumentation buzzes on \u2018The Awaken Infection\u2019 nods to early UK stalwarts Napalm Death, but the feel in general is of a UK hardcore suggestion only with extra padding and less council estate gruel. \u2018Divine Reincarnation\u2019 is a rotten, boiling pit of stinking slime as the bass rolls into the oily coils of the driving percussion.<\/p>\n

There is a definite groove to all this, as if Mortician, Carcass and early Napalm Death were sewn together in a bathtub of sediment; the result being the fetid churns of \u2018Morbid Degeneration\u2019, a sticky, slurping mess of both mid-tempo grind and faster, pulverising shifts.<\/p>\n

Immortal Echoes From The Unknown<\/em> leaves a burning, sulphur stench once it\u2019s left the room and some utterly hideous stains on the carpet.<\/p>\n
