MALFORMED - Confinement of Flesh
Dark Descent Records
All I can say is wow because this is the second Finnish Death Metal band release I've heard this year that's influenced by old school USDM. I just have to laugh a bit about that. I remember when early Finnish DM was influenced by their Swedish neighbors. Of course a few acts came out and created something on their own. I shouldn't have to name drop.
Anyways this is the full length debut by Finland's MALFORMED who started out back in 2022. Prior to this they've released a demo, a live album and an five song EP. I've been playing this one for some time while I'm making a killer dinner. Just for the record cooking and blasting Death Metal work well. You should try it and thank me afterwards.
Musically yeah this Finnish DM band loves the old school USDM variety from the early 1990s plus some Finnish Death Doom. Overall their sound covers the bases aka: the vocals are brutal. The riffs are good quality, there's some Tech Death savoy from the early days and the soloing is really good. I like how the bass lines are thick and high in the mix. The drum work is fairly decent as well.
Overall yeah it's a decent release but I've got a couple hundred or more Death Metal releases on the shelves behind me which I've enjoyed for decades. There you go.
