Necrotic Nick- No problem, guys! Thank you for sick album and reminding me how much Troma rules at the same time. I knew there was a reason Mortician felt appropriate. 🤘
Necrotic Nick- I think their caveman approach was pre- wheel invention because this is some knuckle dragging metal. The Adult Swim vides are definitely there but I love the fact that they worked with Troma for their videos.
Necrotic Nick- The snares grates on me but I like just about everything else honestly. I love the absurdity of it all. It's almost like their trolling the very subgenre they're in. lol
I've just discovered Undeath, Frozen Soul, 200 Stab Wounds and Sanguisugabogg. This a bloke who listened to a lot of Sludge like Crowbar, Acid Bath and Eyehategod. I love the similarities to those sub genres. Cheers blokes for getting me into these New Wave of Old School Death Metal. I love the Caveman songwriting 🤘🏾
Necrotic Nick- Same here. I've see a lot of hate for this band in general. I think they're serious about creating music but who say brutal death can't make of of how ridiculous it is?
It’s those dudes who think bdm regular lyrics are still offensive, and they don’t like how it is fun and funny. Then they get offended, much more than songs about raping women. Ironic, it is
I agree, I too am in the middle of this album.😒My turnoffs were the two tracks that’s just soundscapes only... what a waste!! But I will see this band live!!
Necrotic Nick- Yeah, I'm pretty much the same way about the interludes. Outside of that it's a pretty solid album. I think the live show will be super entertaining to say the least.
@@thrallsofmetal you should give it a listen if you have time. The drummer has a lot more strings to his bow than you'd imagine. And he's a funny guy. AND... they delve into the drug thing, allegedly
You mentioned job for a cowboy .. when they first came out i liked them .. but i did not know they were popular! Then i read in a magazine that there were massive lines to see them!! 😂- i do remember liking the first album.. and i remember white chapel around that time.. i usually just stick to blackend deathgrind (or other combinations of those- and avoid core stuff but still give it a chance .. last year i learnt that there is good core but its underground.
Necrotic Nick- Yeah. I saw Job for a Cowboy at Sounds of the Underground one year and they killed. I didn't get why so many people hated them. I kinda feel that these guys get the same kinda beef as well.
Necrotic Nick- Thanks, man! Honestly, it's not a bad album at all. I really enjoyed a lot of it and I think it's getting a lot of hate for no real reason.
@@thrallsofmetal I hear you. I just felt felt carcass vibes, not from the music so much, but the vile subject matter. Dude, I can't get enough of the song dead as shit from this album! I can't help the urge to bang my head when it hits! I love what you guys are doing, keep it up!
Like the brutality, and timing and drums , i dont always see lyrics, love troma!! /Love slam stuff, /i wear black metal tshirts to my grandmothers house!. / I like long song titles ...
Necrotic Nick- Troma has been a part of my viewing pleasure since I was a teen so I have a soft spot for them but regardless I like this band's fresh take on brutal death/ cave man metal. It's ridiculous, but pretty damn good.
@@thrallsofmetal favourite troma movies? I like polturtgeist , toxic avenger, sg kabukiman, tromas war, class of nukem high, cannibal the musical, class of nukem high (more resent 2 part sequel.)
Unsure about this one, I enjoy the groovy riffs, but the St Anger snare sound puts me off, plus I'm not crazy on the vocals either.. Interesting review again tho guys!
Necrotic Nick- Thanks, man! It may be a grower for some or just not some people's thing in general. It's a pretty abrasive and goofy album. I liked the vocals but that snare is annoying. I've never been a fan of pinging snares.
They sound like a more ooga booga version of 7h. target sometimes, at least when the drummer really decides to go off for a minute. This album fuckin slaps tho
The lyrics are definitely disgusting. I agree with this rating- I wanted to love it but I don’t think it truly lived up to the crazy hype they managed to drum up. I think the insanity that is their sound wears thin over the course of a full length. But I do think they have the potential to put out amazing stuff in the future and will continue to follow them. Thanks again \m/
Necrotic Nick- Yeah, I read some not too long ago and they're hilariously repulsive. Musically they're pretty damn good though. As much as I hated that snare, the drum work is tight and those riffs are very creative. I'm curious what the future holds for them as well.
Necrotic Nick- I'm not sure but he has been jamming a lot more blackened material here lately so it may have had an impact if he did listen to any of it.
Haha. So actually, I had a recent thought- Since I'm often at work during the week and can't spend as much time on Thralls as I'd like to (for now at least), that maybe I could solicit our viewers to send me Spotify playlists? I can almost ALWAYS listen to music. Doing it as we speak.
Maggot stomp is putting out some stuff that stands up with the florda OG titans. I never thought I'd see the day tech death wirh those stupid punk vocals died but it did.
Necrotic Nick- That may be the perfect description for this. lol. I'm just waiting for someone to call it "Tromacore" or something terrible like that though.
Necrotic Nick- I like the production a lot better on the demo versus this but I like the more inventive riff work on the this one so there's elements of both I enjoy.
Necrotic Nick- The snare drove me nuts so I really had to tune it out just so I could appreciate everything else. I liked the mix better on the demo for sure.
Sadly I can't go back and listen to the ep after tortured whole, TH is just a massive upgrade in my eyes. While they still have those knuckle dragging riffs but they are more redefined now in my opinion. also the snare goes PING
Necrotic Nick- I prefer the drum sound on the demo but I like the song writing better on this one by far. I can tune out the snare if need be which makes it more enjoyable.
Necrotic Nick- A bit. I think their OSDM vides are pretty close to Undergang, Mortician and Broken Hope mixed with brutal death. I dug it... minus that horrible snare. lol
I cannot get into this band. It sounds like a new Death Metal band that just started playing and is not very good yet. The snare sound is hideous. It sounds completely out of place during blast beats. I don't get it. But if you love em, you love em.
Thanks y’all! Btw roger from mortician is at the end of the first song 💪
Necrotic Nick- No problem, guys! Thank you for sick album and reminding me how much Troma rules at the same time. I knew there was a reason Mortician felt appropriate. 🤘
Love it. Doesn't have to reinvent the wheel by any means its just fun BDM. Love this band. Love the videos has a Adult Swim show vibes.
Necrotic Nick- I think their caveman approach was pre- wheel invention because this is some knuckle dragging metal. The Adult Swim vides are definitely there but I love the fact that they worked with Troma for their videos.
@@thrallsofmetal Troma fkn rules!
I love this album love it. I love the pingy ass drums and absurd lyrics. Just a fun party vibe.
Necrotic Nick- The snares grates on me but I like just about everything else honestly. I love the absurdity of it all. It's almost like their trolling the very subgenre they're in. lol
The snare sounds like a trash can, much like Metallica's St. Anger album!
@@robertsparling917 they actually made a St Anger shirt, and the lead singer is a legit fan because he was a kid when it came out

I’ve listened to this album like 8 times, it just got better, shit is stuck in my head! Love it.
Necrotic Nick- I was surprised how catchy some of the songs were honestly. That snare is ridiculous though. I liked the drum sound more on the demo.
@@thrallsofmetal I agree with the snare, although it did grow on me.
A lot people I saw hating this album hate anything that isn’t completely serious
Necrotic Nick- Same here. I've see a lot of hate for this band in general. I think they're serious about creating music but who say brutal death can't make of of how ridiculous it is?
We here at Thralls- while we may be serious about metal, we're not overly serious people. See us all for details.
It’s those dudes who think bdm regular lyrics are still offensive, and they don’t like how it is fun and funny. Then they get offended, much more than songs about raping women. Ironic, it is
New one out today!
I agree, I too am in the middle of this album.😒My turnoffs were the two tracks that’s just soundscapes only... what a waste!!
But I will see this band live!!
Necrotic Nick- Yeah, I'm pretty much the same way about the interludes. Outside of that it's a pretty solid album. I think the live show will be super entertaining to say the least.
This album is so sick, good to hear your guys' views on this!
Necrotic Nick- I enjoyed Pornographic Seizures so I really wanted to check this one out. It was pretty solid.
@@thrallsofmetal yh pornographic seizures was excellent. Can't wait to review this too haha
Necrotic Nick- I hope you don't get a massive laughing fit like we did every time we tried to say "Dick Fillet" out loud. lol
@@thrallsofmetal we will. And we don't edit our videos so it will be well known.
"Dick Filet". I even laughed while typing it.
Hands down best metal RUclipsrs I love the thralls lml
Necrotic Nick- Thanks, man!
Thank you so much! With our goofy asses, we're sometimes surprised that anyone continues to watch, haha.
@@jamminjon8074 hahaha no problem I watch every morning before work awesom you guys do this.
Been playing this all weekend. And a great interview with Cody on heavy hole podcast. Great fun
Necrotic Nick- I'm still waiting on my copy. Given the lyrical content I can see how that interview would be a lot of fun. lol
@@thrallsofmetal you should give it a listen if you have time. The drummer has a lot more strings to his bow than you'd imagine. And he's a funny guy. AND... they delve into the drug thing, allegedly
I'm having fun !
Necrotic Nick- That's what it's all about, man!

Fucking love this band.. Just a great fucking record and I think it's going to be an all time favourite.
3.5 indeed. Was expecting to be much worse. Great rev.
Necrotic Nick- Thanks, man! Honestly, it's not a bad album at all. I really enjoyed a lot of it and I think it's getting a lot of hate for no real reason.
I love this album!
Necrotic Nick- I like it and I think I appreciate more the more I listen to it.
great review, tortured whole is brilliant banger album!
Adding this to my list 😊
Holy shit Jon looks exactly like the iconic Creepy face on the carcass symphonies. ... really scary!!
Yeeeesssss 🥩🥩🥩
This album kicks sss, and if you think it's weird look back at Carcass' song titles and lyrics
Necrotic Nick- I dig it. I think Carcass's love of pathology is less weird than say something like "Feltching Filth". lol
@@thrallsofmetal I hear you. I just felt felt carcass vibes, not from the music so much, but the vile subject matter. Dude, I can't get enough of the song dead as shit from this album! I can't help the urge to bang my head when it hits! I love what you guys are doing, keep it up!
Necrotic Nick- Thanks, man! That might be favorite on the album actually. Some about that main riff just gets stuck in my head.
You should do a video on what got you into progressive metal, another subgenre you missed in the "what got you into" series.
Necrotic Nick- That's a possibility. I'm going to eventually do some underrated prog metal albums for a video in the future.
Check out the band Invultation from Columbus OH
Necrotic Nick- I've heard the name dropped before I just haven't jammed them I believe.
@@thrallsofmetal pretty good mix of black and death metal
Like the brutality, and timing and drums , i dont always see lyrics, love troma!! /Love slam stuff, /i wear black metal tshirts to my grandmothers house!. / I like long song titles ...

Devin Swank is the man!! \m/
Necrotic Nick- Dude's got some sick vocals and some clever/ gross lyrics.
Shut up y'all hate Slam lmao jk, They mix brutal death and doom and osmb very well I fucks with them hard
Unsure about this one, I enjoy the groovy riffs, but the St Anger snare sound puts me off, plus I'm not crazy on the vocals either.. Interesting review again tho guys!

@@thrallsofmetal Necrotic Nick _ yeah annoying is spot on.. The constant ting ting ting is like Chinese water torture lol

How did Jon get on with my black metal homework?
Necrotic Nick- I'm not sure but he has been jamming a lot more blackened material here lately so it may have had an impact if he did listen to any of it.
@@thrallsofmetal What about a monthly series of updates - Jon Goes To Kult College
Haha. So actually, I had a recent thought- Since I'm often at work during the week and can't spend as much time on Thralls as I'd like to (for now at least), that maybe I could solicit our viewers to send me Spotify playlists? I can almost ALWAYS listen to music. Doing it as we speak.
great review
Necrotic Nick- Thanks, man!

Adult Swim St. Anger nu brutal death?
Necrotic Nick- That may be the perfect description for this. lol. I'm just waiting for someone to call it "Tromacore" or something terrible like that though.
"...And with that, a new subgenre was born. They called His name "Tromacore".
Pornographic Seizures is fantastic but this album no! 😢
Necrotic Nick- I like the production a lot better on the demo versus this but I like the more inventive riff work on the this one so there's elements of both I enjoy.
The shitty drums ruined it for me 🤢
They play drop G on 7 string!!
Necrotic Nick- Wow. I thought it was a 6 string baritone honestly.
I wonder if this band were influenced by the film Society
Necrotic Nick- If they were that's a sweet movie to be influenced by. I love the grotesque special effects in that movie.
@@thrallsofmetal great film
The lyrics are ridiculous, but the album is killer.
Necrotic Nick- When I get my physical copy I'm definitely going to go over the lyrics and have a laugh. lol
@@thrallsofmetal all the lyrics are on Genius already - if you dare
I like it but don't like the pingy snare. I get they want it for the brutal death metal side of them, I'm just not a fan.
Necrotic Nick- The snare drove me nuts so I really had to tune it out just so I could appreciate everything else. I liked the mix better on the demo for sure.
Dick Fillet is the "cut".
Necrotic Nick- I see what you did there. lol
Floppy
Necrotic Nick- Drop G floppy. That's a new level of floppy for me.
@@thrallsofmetal you just put KoRn strings on any guitar and then droppdy tune it #tonetower
Drum sound ruined it, the EP had such a strong groove and production.
Sadly I can't go back and listen to the ep after tortured whole, TH is just a massive upgrade in my eyes. While they still have those knuckle dragging riffs but they are more redefined now in my opinion. also the snare goes PING
Necrotic Nick- I prefer the drum sound on the demo but I like the song writing better on this one by far. I can tune out the snare if need be which makes it more enjoyable.
The snare sound ruined things a bit. The drum-work was actually pretty solid.
shitty snare?? best snare in the game imo
There a bit like Undergang in the sense they are a required taste my kind of required taste 😂
Necrotic Nick- A bit. I think their OSDM vides are pretty close to Undergang, Mortician and Broken Hope mixed with brutal death. I dug it... minus that horrible snare. lol
I cannot get into this band. It sounds like a new Death Metal band that just started playing and is not very good yet. The snare sound is hideous. It sounds completely out of place during blast beats. I don't get it. But if you love em, you love em.
