Zombieslut - Undead Commando (2015)

   Zombieslut debuted in 2010 by "Braineater", a quite groovy and nearly featureless old school death metal album. As the title suggests, horror and gore is in the focus of their lyrical concept. 
   The band's return by "Undead Commando" followed the same path, but their music was all-round improved. After "Braineater" there was the chance that they might become another Six Feet Under rip-off band like Debauchery for instance. If a band turns groovy, there's the nearly unavoidable possibility that their music will completely repetitive and might lack any character. Partly because even though middle tempo groovy themes are serving as certain guidance and it's a recipe that's difficult to ruin, the style has little to offer expect falling into monotonous boredom. Not to mention that Obituary and Six Feet Under most possibly have done everything that could be made on this field and both have left behind nearly eventless discographies. However, even if Zombieslut's second album didn't get rid of the neutralizing grooviness completely, its role was reduced, and old school themes became more dominant. Their music turned slightly more technical, but still primitive simplicity remained its main feature. It might seem reasonable by the zombie horror based concept, but it's not really worth to go too far. The sound quality became also way better than previously, and these two factors made their music way more enjoyable. Mainly recommended for the fans of groovy death metal.
