(1 Customer Review)
Recorded during a volatile period when Napalm Death's personnel seemed to shift on a weekly basis, 1988's FROM ENSLAVEMENT TO OBLITERATION is a grindcore classic--not surprising, since the U.K. band essentially invented the metal subgenre on its previous outing, SCUM. A record that featured two almost entirely different lineups on its dual sides, SCUM built the foundation for the future Napalm sound on its latter half, with vocalist Lee Dorrian and guitarist Bill Steer leading the group on a series of punishing tracks, many of which clock in at well under a minute.
The same is true of ENSLAVEMENT, which marks the first--and only--full album of the short-lived Dorrian/Steer era, and finds the singer alternating between low growl and scathing shriek, while Steer unleashes barbed guitar lines and the rhythm section pounds away (see "Unchallenged Hate"). Before a legion of bands began to emulate this extreme aesthetic, Dorrian departed to form the doom ensemble Cathedral, and Steer returned to his gory day job in Carcass, making this a true metal landmark.

| | Napalm Death Scum CD (1987)
From Enslavement To Obliteration
$14.05 Legendary grindcore godfathers Napalm Death left a scorched path on the English countryside immediately upon the release of their debut album, SCUM. So volatile that they had two different lineups appearing on the same album (with Justin Broadrick and Nick Bullen leaving before recording the rest), Napalm Death took hardcore punk and shifted the focus to ungodly speed and brevity at the expense of everything else. Twenty-odd-second blitzes such as "The Kill" and "Deceiver" rush by like the contrail of a nuclear warhead, and the longest ...
| | Carcass Reek Of Putrefaction CD (1988)
From Enslavement To Obliteration
$14.05 The title alone. Anyone taking the lyrical content here even slightly seriously -- and that includes the bandmembers -- clearly needs to be taken away by the nice men in the white jackets. Thoughtfully, complete lyrics are provided -- thus, a verse from "Vomited Anal Tract": "Your vagus implodes, as nausea strikes/Savaging your body in terminal retch/Violent spasms and decaying enzymes/Engulf your throat as you belch." That this or anything else on the album is completely impossible to understand otherwise is part of the insane fun, of course, which is why Carcass is both one of the best and funniest bands around. Musically everything is basically just one step away from Napalm Death's early sound, if even that far, but there's something just that much more engagingly nutty about what Carcass do. It might be the way that Bill Steer's guitar solos sound like they're turning themselves inside out every time he plays one (with blood dripping from exposed musculature and so forth, no doubt). Alternately, it might be how Ken Owen matches early Mick Harris for sheer frazzle with drums played so fast everything sounds more like a wash of static than anything else. Whatever it is, Reek ...
| | Napalm Death Harmony Corruption CD (1990)
From Enslavement To Obliteration
$12.49 During the two-year interim separating Harmony Corruption from Napalm Death's previous album, the band totally revamped its lineup and its sound as well, moving toward the more expansive horizons of standard death metal. This move inspired quite a bit of debate among fans. Napalm Death had been -- and will always be -- the definitive grindcore band, as exemplified by Scum (1987) and From Enslavement to Obliteration (1988), the two albums that practically alone defined an entire new style of extreme metal. However, the Napalm Death of those two albums is not the Napalm Death of Harmony Corruption, not in membership nor sound. The band's vocalist, ...

| | Cryptopsy None So Vile CD (1996)
From Enslavement To Obliteration
$10.49 Cryptopsy's second album and its last with original vocalist Lord Worm, None So Vile offers just about everything a listener could want from an extreme death metal recording. It's incredibly tight, fast, and complex; the riffs are well-placed and darkly catchy; the guitar solos are completely over the top; and the vocals -- a mix of psychotic low-end growls and tortured screams -- are suitably intense and scary. Combine those ingredients with Lord Worm's creative handling of death metal subject matter (you'll have to consult the lyrics, since the vocals are indecipherable), the sparing but effective use of samples, and the simply awe-inspiring presence and stamina of drummer Flo Mounier, and you have the makings of a classic album.

From Enslavement To Obliteration
$11.39 Eight years after their last release, 666 International, set a few new standards for combining black metal with industrial techniques, Norway's Dodheimsgard (which loosely translates to "Mansion of Death") finally ended their unexpectedly long vacation with 2007's Supervillain Outcast. And here, again, the eccentric quartet goes to great lengths in their attempts to bend, twist, and distort the accepted boundaries separating those two genres, boldly framing their tortured howling and jagged guitar riffing with superhuman barrages of computerized drums and all manner of electronic noises and effects. Like fast-frame anime audio, instead of visuals, the end results ...
