THE SCUM - The Hunger
Wild Noise Productions
In all honesty everything about this release appeals to me. First off their name now for those of you who remember this blog was once called Scumfeast Metal. That was until some cocksucker doxxed me. But I digress. The album cover depicts a werewolf feasting on a victim. Well my name is Wolf. Finally they're Colombian death metal and it should be noted that some of the world's most extreme metal hails from the Southern continent.
This is the second full length by THE SCUM who started out in 2013. Musically this band is not trying to break new ground with their brand of old school DM. More than likely they wanna bury you in the ground. Soundwise it's a combination of DISMEMBER, INCANTATION and NUNSLAUGHTER. Yeah their vocalist reminds me of Don of the Dead.
The ten cuts on The Hunger pretty much run the gambit of OSDM. You've got the crunchy fast numbers paired with some slight death doom. The band has a touch of head banging groove. Plus once in a while there will be a solo that'll either dive bomb into your skull or break the punishment with some melody. The production here is on the raw side which it should be. All in all THE SCUM are cool as fuck.
