Before I start the review I just want to get one thing out of the way… I don’t like the Name Blessed Offal. That’s probably what kept me from checking out this band the most. But I was told their stuff was right up my alley so I was willing to give it a shot.

I am so glad I did because this album is killer. On my first listen it brought me back to high school, blasting Morbid Angel or Immolation on my shit box car’s stereo.

From the opener “Bottomless Grave” you’re reminded of why Death Metal was awesome in the early 90’s and why it could be again. No slammy bullshit here. Just memorable songs, evil riffs, and blazing solos. It makes me want to crack open a beer and bang my head. I may have to actually leave my house to check out Blessed Offal live.
