Eradication - Stigmatic Assessment (2011)

  If Eradication's music should be defined shortly by a few descriptive words, it might sound like: eclectic, accurate and antinomic. 
   The band was formed in the late '00s (if a longer less productive period under another name is not counted), and their music lied somewhere between old school and technical brutal death. In the themes the influences of the most known names of the genre (such as Cannibal Corpse or Deicide) could be discovered, but the technical brutal death ambitions are pushing the music forward into a more modern direction both by style and sound. This was accurate not only by the actual direction of the main scene scene that time. and also usually newer bands of the tiny Hungarian scene tried to keep up with that tendency with less success. "Stigmatic Assessment" also sounds like an experimenting album, trying out yet uncertain possibilities both in themes and effects, and on a technical death album it makes difficult to make difference between usually unnecessarily piled up themes and experiments. This might help to define things in various prefereable subjective ways, but if the concept and the explanations taking too much effort, it usually leads to something chaotic that's not so easy to go into. From this point there's analogy with Malediction. Eradication is less chaotic though, and there are plenty of old school references to catch the attention easier, only they're not long lasting. And the seemeingly causeless repetitiveness of less fortunate, nearly math-metal compatible themes are erasing the previously upbuilt basics instead of completing them.
