Campaign For Musical Destruction
AG bretten hier in gewohnter Manier 3 geile Mincetracks runter. "Piles Left To Rot" knallt für mich hier am meisten.AG kann man aber nur einfach immer wieder abfeiern. Auch EMBALMING THEATRE sind hier mit 3 Grindgranaten,inklusive eines saugeilen Intros, am Start (nicht zu vergessen das coole E.N.T.-Cover "Murder"!). Ich kann nur sagen: Daumen hoch für das Teil und unbedingt mal antesten!

This is the first Agathocles split I have had that came in a proper sleeve and had glossy covers! Also, the vinyl is really cool splatter blood coloured. Im not sure if this is a good or bad thing, i mean its smart vinyl but does it mean Agathocles are ditching the DIY mentality? I doubt it! Agathocles on this release give us three tracks of raw and blistering mincecore, shredding guitars flying past at 1000mph with insane drum blasts and gutteral as fuck vocalisations. This is some pretty fucking insane material from Agathocles and though a little raw and with a slightly noisy mix this is sure to please. And on the flip we have Embalming Theatre from Switzerland. After an intro we are thrown headlong into three whirlwind tracks of extreme grindcore with a gore feel to it, fast as fuck and with gutteral vocals, elements of death metal and pure metal at times, and some really fucking cool guitar playing. The mix is a little drum/ vocal heavy but its clear enough to pick out individual parts. Theres even an Extreme Noise Terror cover for added measure! Overall, this is worth getting for any grind fan, not just the AGx worship crew out there.
