Anarkhon - Obesidade Mórbida (2006)

   Anarkhon was formed in 1999 and after a few demos they debuted in 2006 with "Obesidade Mórbida". Such as at other newer South American bands, they stayed between the borders of an exact style - at brutal death metal in this case.
   In their early period they preferred Portuguese, but later they wrote their lyrics in English. Anyway in this this genre it's completely secondary, since gore and splatter is the main lyrical concept, and deep growling vocal style doesn't support decent spelling. Their music reminds mainly to early Cannibal Corpse, especially to the insanely exaggerated style of the albums "Butchered at Birth" and "Tomb of the Mutilated". By this direction a very raw and insane outcome should be expected, and the album cannot dissapoint those who are hoping to reach the darkest depths of musickness by listening. Similarly to old Cannibal Corpse, catchy melodic themes repeditively assisting to the intense speed, heavy sound and deep grows. That results the same sick impression, and also could make the listener smile, especially at the screaming parts that are introducing how a mad Donald Duck scream should sound like. It's exactly the thing that made this style interesting: it could be enjoyable even for those who can't take it seriously, because this level of extremism could sound funny too. But except that Anarkhon did a really good job and their high quality debut refers to one of the biggest names of '90s death metal.
