Filth - Time to Rot
Limited Cassette
Promising total rotten malignancy with the superb visuals of this record, before you hear a note; you know this will be a gruesome listen. Fouling the air with a disturbing ambience, the disquiet of this record leads into a gloomy and sepulchral yet bludgeoning offering of death metal. Abhorrent riffing and ghastly vocals mold together in foul fashion atop powerful drums. Each gritty detail has a lot of force behind it and the band instantly puts a butcher's hook through your flesh that keeps pulling you in for more fetid ferocity. This type of mid-tempo, groove-laden death metal has seen a lot of strong acts in the last decade or so and Filth are clearly going to be one of those names that stand out with their memorably intoxicating and putrescent soundscapes of decay.
