I have to say that this band surprised me... I expected only another grind band but Birdflesh is not like that. In fact they have moments where they play straight grindcore but there are many places where they play sort of extreme death metal and they show a lot of ideas such as the climatic passage in the first half of "Gore in, gore Out" or the one or two seconds before entering the more hardcore riff in "Night of the ultimate mosh" . This band is fast and brutal and has extremely brutal riffs together with screaming and guttural vocals. But the good thing here is that they throw short ideas here and there to make things more interesting. The sound of this release is good and you can listen this raw band in all their splendour because the instruments are well mixed and the guitars got the sound they deserve. If you are a lover of speed and brutality Birdflesh can be one of your favorite bands.

Favorite tracks: "Gore in Gore Out"; "The rolling massgrave" and " Dance on the Frozen Desert"
