THE EROSION OF SANITY

Gorguts second album was an improvement from the rather generic debut album Considered Dead. It is still death metal pretty similar to Suffocation and Cannibal Corpse. But not with the same quality. The tempo is not particular fast, although their grindcore specialist producer Colin Richardson (not Scott Burns, Umur) has added some grindcore edge to their sound. With success. The songs are also better this time around.

The music is still neither particular brutal or technical. This is the type of death metal that I find pretty boring. Gorguts simply does not have the x-factor or any talent. They are simply a generic death metal band, producing generic death metal albums. The title track is good though. And that's all.
