ULCER
'Grant Us Death'
(Pulverised Records)
I have
to be completely honest - I was not really expecting to like this at
all. With the band and album title I guess I was expecting some over the
top gore-grind band or second rate Autopsy clone. But that's not the
case with these uncompromising old-school maniacs from Poland. Ulcer
draws influence from Swedish gods such as Entombed ('Left Hand Path'
era), Dismember ('Like An Ever Flowing Stream' and the demo days) and
other classick gods of the Swedish scene. Heavy, blasting drums, fast
intense guitars with some really crazy riffs and solos
throughout. Angry screams mixed with deep death growls fit perfectly
with Ulcer's insane old-school brutal death metal sound.Ulcer has
just released one of the best old-school death metal CDs of the year (I know the year just started but it's gonna be hard to top this
masterpiece of sickness).
