Also has 5'd Immolation's 'Close to a World Below'



Yeah, not sure I agree on what you take from music or art or music as art



Two sh'tty albums right there imo, but we're all unique

Still think Prurient's 'Niagara Falls' is ten times the album this is....and still only a 3.5

I'd actually go as far as to say 'Dragonflies to Sew You Up' does everything this entire album sets out to do musically (give or take) and is also better than this entire album

if you think CtaWB is trash it's because you don't like death metal in general. That can be the only reason.

haven't listened to that album in a while but this is the review I put up on my 'Last 100' list on the DoofusWainwright account that explains further:



[1.8]



Incredibly boring album, yes this is proficient music, and the approach is somewhat brootal, plus the vocals almost have a burpy Demilich quality...but everything is so goddam flat and one toned. It doesn't groove, it doesn't reach any sort of real heaviness, it just sort of pummels away in this unappetising way with no rise and fall, there are no peaks of excitement or intensity. Easily the most absolutely ear numbingly dull album on the list, no contest. This piece of shit deserves its Jesus steak house album sleeve, burn in hell.

Well, like I said I don’t like this and I don’t find it very musical - but what musical elements there are remind me a little of that sort of thing.



I wasn’t saying they’re separated at birth.



This is much more drama school project found sound unrelated percussion track channel your inner wolf and howl trash of the highest order so I’m struggling to compare it to anything I’d willingly listen to.

Basically this sounds like bad performance art with a smattering of something close to industrial noise (like Prurient etc)



This is not hard to acknowledge

Mary Turner Mary Turner is the perfect sort-of post-protest song I've heard period.

The story itself is enough to make me cry but the horrific music they pair it against, I'm so glad this exists.



Bad performance art, GTFO!
