Eight years after their debut full-length outing From The Grave They Crawl<\/em>, Canadian combo Human Compost surges at us once again with their flatulent vocal gurgles and musical extremity.<\/p>\n

Very much groove-based, this quintet has churned out some decent material since forming in 2008. Their trio of EPs released between 2013 and 2104, were solid deathgrind outings, and this new release rattles by in similar infected fashion.<\/p>\n

Hyper blast beats are fused efficiently with slower, mid-tempo chunks of nastiness, solos whirl in devious fashion through the mesh of destructive hammering, and for the most part the vocals of Geoff Hodsman exist as chesty bellows that occasionally drift into rasps and at times the more annoying pig grunts.<\/p>\n

While this is an extremely brutal opus there\u2019s some fantastic riffs to get your claws and teeth into, particularly with the ominous dirges of \u2018Night In The Crypt\u2019 and \u2018Visions Within The Grave\u2019, but like most tracks these soon speed up and become standard yet battering death \/ grind offerings.<\/p>\n

All the tracks are relatively short but that\u2019s good for me because this sort of stuff doesn\u2019t always engage me. Even so, \u2019Funerary Cannibalism\u2019 again offers some excellent mid-tempo work, while \u2018Corporealized\u2019 rattles like a chainsaw just started up and ready to sever limbs. It\u2019s good, extreme death-cum-grind all round which is summed up by the closing strains of the title track with its crushing dynamics.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m impressed how these guys manage to create so many catchy segments while remaining so potent, so if you like punishing brutality but want to nod along in-between bouts of auditory murder then grab yourself a copy.<\/p>\n
