After 5 spins, gotta say this my favorite of their collection. And all of them are great! You guys were right...the drumming on this absolutely insane. Easily will be in my top 5 for sure.
I don’t know how this band can perform at this level on every single release, which is basically a yearly thing. The amount of anger and energy they pack into a half hour is enough to power some large cities
Necrotic Nick- Yeah, I'm still mystified by that as well. I don't know how much they actually tour so they may dedicate all the free time they have into making these songs as ferocious as they possibly can. I'll be honest: this might even been the fastest and meanest one yet too.
I MAY have ordered the “Everything” option on this one (vinyl, cd, 2 shirts, etc) from their web store in Australia. And when I say MAY, I mean I definitely did. THESE GUYS FUCKING RULE!! Can’t to wait to get it!!!
Necrotic Nick- You may have made a wise decision lol. Yeah, I'm still waiting on my copy of this one and I may have to snag a shirt if there's some stateside. I don't want to pay the ridiculous shipping from Australia.
Another ferocious album and overall fine Slab o' Death, plus the samples are perfect and fit the vibe (The Stepbrothers 'I Hate You Too' sample is the best!)
Necrotic Nick- This band is awesome on so many levels. I feel like the samples and lyrics are just the icing on the cake with these dudes. I love dark humor and this band is about as dark as they come lol.
Before hearing anything about what this album sounded like, before checking your review, before reading any other critic reviews or fan comments on bandcamp or interview with the band, before any of all that, all I did was take one look at the front cover and thought to myself "yep I know what this album is going to sound like and I am going to LOVE it" lmao. Speaking of the cover art I swear it's like reading a book the more you look at it the more of a story it shows. And it's beautiful in the most horrific way possible. 💀👌 Fantastic review again guys 👍
Definitely my top pick for AOTY. It’s everything I want in a metal band. Fast as hell, brutal, and a twisted sense of humor (lyrically it reminds me of Carnivore).
Necrotic Nick- It's got a good chance of making my year end list but I don't know if it beats their last one. That's the problem with them releasing consistently awesome albums I guess. Regardless this album rips and once again their dark humor is so damn good. Definitely getting a bit of those Carnivore vibes as well.
Shout out to my boy Jackie from the into the necrosphere podcast for his "collab" on track one. The band he was ranting about was kataklysm haha. I don't know why but I've always thought of werewolves like a more focused cannabis corpse without the drugs. Between them and Pustilence old school aussie death metal is killing it.
Necrotic Nick- I don't know about that yet but I do know that I love all their albums. I think where I liked more of the dynamics on the last one here I really just love how flat out ruthless it is.
Also if you like the black metal side of werewolves check out their black metal alter ego Faustian "we come as angels" ep that came out last year, basically its the same line up as werewolves but Anaal nathrakth and deathspell omega inspired black metal.
Necrotic Nick- Fuck... are you sure I just can't pick all of them? It might be the last one "From the Cave to the Grave" by just a hair... a cunt hair... because they're Australian.
Necrotic Nick- Yeah, I don't know why they're not on any streaming platforms right now. They still don't have a full album stream up on RUclips yet either. Hopefully all that get straightened out soon because they put out a monster of an album once again.

This album will probably be on my top ten this year just like my enemies look and sound like me from last year.
Necrotic Nick- It's gotta good chance of making the list. There's already been a ton of killer releases this year though so it's already tough.
@@thrallsofmetal I agree!

This band just keeps killing it.
Necrotic Nick- Peak viciousness once again.
Damn this album is brutal as hell! Gonna check out their other albums as well! See ya in a couple hours!🤘😈🔥☕🚬
thnx

Werewolves is just ole reliable honestly I can always count on a werewolves album every year and I love them for that
Necrotic Nick- I'd have to agree. They've dropped nothing but bangers at this point.

All I can say in the words of Tombstoner Fuckin Nasty.
5/5 death metal's best album of 2024 so far
Definitely my top pick for AOTY. It’s everything I want in a metal band. Fast as hell, brutal, and a twisted sense of humor (lyrically it reminds me of Carnivore).

Master of brutality! Whether fast or slower tracks everything is so well executed that Werewolves can do no wrong.
Necrotic Nick- I have yet to be disappointed by a Werewolves album and that streak is very much alive with this one.
I honestly like this album more than the last album. But another amazing album by these guys.
Necrotic Nick- I don't know about that yet but I do know that I love all their albums. I think where I liked more of the dynamics on the last one here I really just love how flat out ruthless it is.

Werewolves its one of those bands that i hear songs by them i gotta listen to their albums.
Necrotic Nick- Yeah, at this point when I hear they have a new album coming out I just plan on buying it. They haven't disappointed yet.
If you had to pick just 1 Werewolves album which you'd you choose?
Necrotic Nick- Fuck... are you sure I just can't pick all of them? It might be the last one "From the Cave to the Grave" by just a hair... a cunt hair... because they're Australian.
Absolutely rules!
Necrotic Nick- Pretty much exactly what I wanted from these dudes.
Really want to check this out but it’s not currently on Spotify yet. Liked their previous album a lot and of course Psycroptic
Necrotic Nick- Yeah, I don't know why they're not on any streaming platforms right now. They still don't have a full album stream up on RUclips yet either. Hopefully all that get straightened out soon because they put out a monster of an album once again.
On Spotify (and all other streaming services) this Friday
@@werewolvesdeathmetal hell yeah, I’ll be listening in full Friday!
There is nothing more Australian than dropping a big old C word, haha
Necrotic Nick- LOL! Agreed!
Great band. They put on an intense live show too👍🏼🤘🏼
Necrotic Nick- I can only imagine. If they come to my neck of the words I'll be there for sure.
When are you guys going to review unearth’s new EP
Necrotic Nick- We didn't have time to do that one. It's good though.
