DRIPPING DECAY - Festering Grotesqueries review


 

DRIPPING DECAY - Festering Grotesqueries 

Satanik Royalty Records


As much as I give praise to death metal bands who hold true to the old ways. It's a guarantee I'll do the same for a death grind band who does the same. This band here came to my attention via a fan / reader / promo person of the blog saying "I can't believe you haven't written about this band. They're right up your extreme alley." One listen later and yeah that person was right. 


This is the full length debut by DRIPPING DECAY a four piece act from Portland, Oregon. Musically it's fuckin death grind. The drum work reminds ya of REPULSION. The diabolic guitar riffs are a nod to EXHUMED. And the vocals are somewhat in the vein of AUTOPSY. With fourteen cuts all under four minutes and oozing of filth and B-movie horror revulsion ya gotta say hell yeah. 


In the end Festering Grotesqueries is a great homage to death grind of the past. Ya gotta love the cover art as well. But next time try inserting some originality.
