The competition to play so exaggerated music as it's possible ended in the early '90s already. But there are bands from time to time who prefer to pick that line again and trying to exceed others.
Amputated Genitals was one of them, and even by the name selection they didn't try to hide their intentions. Their extremely sick brutal death metal mainly refers to old Cannibal Corpse by both the musical features and the extremely violent and disgusting lyrical topics. By the themes they tried to create a similarly intense ground and the drumming style shows plenty of similarities too, not the mention the guttural deep growling that couldn't even nearly serve as an example of decent articulation. In the lyrics they focused on the less tolerable topics: serial killing, and the most violent and sadistic ways of murders led by endlessly twisted sexual lust. The simple narrating style may made them even more outrageous, and these references probably refreshed bad memories in Germany where the early Cannibal Corpse albums were banned (even if by this vocal style the lyrics are not understandable at all). So this record wasn't really welcomed there either. However there is an endless line of brutal death bands, and even the number of gore addicts isn't low, but Amputated Genitals successfully managed to mark out from them by their raw and massive brutality.
