KILL - CANNIBAL CORPSE published May 2006, Zero Magazine


You get a warm, fuzzy feeling inside when you open the liner notes to Kill and see the panoramic photo of Cannibal Corpse in their long-haired, metal T-shirted glory. It reminds you that there are still things in this world that you can depend on. You can't count on gas prices, keeping your job or avoiding natural disaster. But you can always count on Cannibal Corpse being balls-out metal to the bone.

Just like scotch tastes better with age, Cannibal Corpse sounds better with every album. Kill, the tenth album in the CC discography is meticulously timed and ever brutal. Track listings are the signature brand of grotesque: “Five Nails Through The Neck,” “Submerged In Boiling Flesh” and “Barbaric Bludgeonings.” You know you're a great band when you manage to be as musically talented as you are disgusting. And Cannibal Corpse is pretty goddamned gross.

The entire album is relentless and even overwhelming as typical of all their albums. Take in small doses to truly bask in the majesty that is these death metal minstrels.
