This Toilet Tuesday (2/18/20)
It’s new music time on this most Toilet of Tuesdays, and it’s a pile this week. I’m not even really sure what’s good besides the blurbed album here and Xenobiotic, but I’m sure you’ll find something to enjoy in that mess. Read on and share some sweet tunes below.
Schizogen – Spawn of Almighty Essence (Willowtip) [Brutal Death Metal]
Listen to “The Genes Recoding”
I love it when brutal death bands go for more than B I G C H U G G S and pig squeals, and Schizogen is really doing it for me. They sound a bit like if Disentomb structured their songs like Unfathomable Ruination; you get the desolate, colossal riffs of the former presented with the chaotic flow of the latter. It’s some pretty fun stuff, and it’s probably worth a listen if the typical BDM band is a little too unga bunga for you (plus, anything with tremolo dive riffs get my seal of approval). 2/21/20 (Spear)
