Copremesis
Muay Thai Ladyboys
Paragon Records 2008
If you can get
by the demented perversion of the album's artwork what you will discover is its
musical equivalent, demented perversion. The title track makes for a
rather punishing introduction to the death grind intricacies of Copremesis.
Thick riffs and madness inducing tempos and in ample supply on the track as well
as some of the most distorted and guttural vocals ever to rupture eardrums.
Some comical vocal work also makes surfaces in the bowels of this unrelenting
beatdown. There is no break at all from one track to the next so the only
way you really know you are on the next song is to look at the display counter.
Up next is Bestial Castration which is two minutes of gore drenched audio
violence. Zombies displays not only lightning fast riffing but also
molasses slow sludge soaked guitar work. This alternating method of
assault appears on Mad as well. However after the first few tracks this
album begins to wear on my ears. Muay Thai Ladyboys is just so
uncompromising that it punishes my hearing from the opening note until the final
crushing riff. This makes for a draining listen to be certain. Due
to its extreme brutality and sheer avoidance of anything remotely catchy, this
style does little for me but if bands like Malignancy or Disgorge do it for you
then Copremesis will be heaven for your auditory senses. For me this is
the sonic equivalent of a thousand explode pustules.
