Hymen Holocaust really crashed through my speakers some months ago. This band is a project by the drummer of Cliteater, Maurice (Morris). I was totally blown away by the ultimate gore grind assault short of “Camp Blood” by Bile. It possessed all what you wanted to hear in gore grind, which means pitched vocals, slow bowel churning riffs and of course ‘poeka’ drums. Now, just 6 or 7 months after the first album, a second follows. This bowel thrasher is called Blood Feast.

 

The music is the same, the vocals are the same and everything is pretty much the same. Many people will turn away right now, but I think it’s a compliment. Gore grind essentially doesn’t need to be original, it just needs that groove. Blood Feast possesses just that groove. Interesting song titles, which are always meant to give a good laugh, like ‘Cold Ones Make Me Horny’, ‘Anal Alien Abuse’ and the love song written for Britney Spears, simply called ‘Britney’. I especially laughed because of the lyrics of that one!
