Cannibal Corpse – Kill

Kill is an apt reference to what CC are all about and far removed from their older, laboured, album titles. But that is about the gist of CC´s progression. Once you get into the album you soon discover that it is just another assembly line offering utterly generic and uninspired mid-tempo Death- Metal with dispassionate vocals, crap lyrics and songs so desperately homogenous you´d be hard-pressed to tell one from the other. Add to that an annoying solo or two on nearly every track and inner back-sleeve art work so bad it boggles the mind and what you´ve got is an “easy listening” Death- Metal classic ready for consumption by 16-year-old kids yet to discover Nile and devoted fans of 19-years-standing who still consider chanting “The time to kill is now” along to George Fisher´s monotonous and mediocre growling the very pinnacle of the Death-Metal experience.
