AVULSED - Eminence In Putrescence CD
Avulsed is maybe the only Spanish band that reached a quite remarkable success in Europe in the extreme metal field. In the past there were lots of good bands on this style in Spain but few survived and many are still on the underground. Avulsed started as a gore death metal band and remained more or less the same all over these long years. Their demos are numerous and finally they released the first album Eminence in Putrescence in 1996. In my opinion, Carnivoracity was not a real, complete album because contained re-recorded versions of the homonymous EP and several covers.
So, this Eminence in Putrescence officially started the best period for this band. The death metal was becoming very popular worldwide and they were ready to contribute. The gore violence of the first demos is now displayed with a better production but the essence doesn’t change and we are again here to be submerged by ultra gore vocals and gross, low tuned guitars. The CD starts with “Hidden Perversions” and his massive use of the bass drum. The riffs are sloppy on the rhythmic session, in order to be even more obscure and perverted. There are a lot of breaks in which some more melodic parts enter to create a great balance between the gore elements and the more accessible passages.
