Bloodboil - Festering Fornication (2006)

   There was an endless line of brutal death bands in the late 00's, but only a few of them were memorable. Bloodboil was fortunately one of those who offered more than bare technical brutality that's able to turn the whole music totally boring after one minute of listening.
   "Festering Fornication", their one and only album mixed old school influences with the modern direction of brutal death. Their riffing and drumming style often referred to late Cannibal Corpse (even the cover artwork showed similarities), and they've also symphatized with technical themes that reminded to the intensity of Deeds of Flesh. They had quite catchy themes and switching solutions that made their music much more enjoyable than most modern brutal death with their sudden math metal-like theme switches. Bloodboil also experimented with some, but they didn't go too far with those. High sound quality and deep growling vocal style completed the circle, and of course the inevitable lyrical concept based on gore and killing spree. "Festering Fornication" is an excellent brutal death album, could be very entertaining for the fans of the genre.
