In
the world of grind, it’s practically impossible to not know the
name Haemorrhage. This nasty pathological act has taken the hearts
and minds from the biggest part of the underground community. It's
taken more than 10 years to release second part of Haematology, but
believe me, it was worth the wait. Traditionally, I want to consider
the design of this release. So, German Power It Up released 2 version
of this compilation; the first is a double gatefold vinyl edition,
and the second is a CD version. I was lucky to get a 2LP version, and
you know what? It's fucking gorgeous! All of the polygraphy is high
in quality, and everything looks just amazing. Luisma drew badass art
for this one... The Mad Pathologist is back, haha! Inside the sleeve
you will find much interesting information. Each of the releases
within this edition has a small story about this or that split; it
was really interesting to read all of them. Everything here is soaked
with the creepy atmosphere of a morgue.
30
songs were gathered together - you will hear noise from split with
Impaled, Embalming Theatre, Dead Infection, Dead, Disgorge, Gruesome
Stuff Relish, Amputation Protocol EP, and a few songs from the split
with Gutalax. Expect of more than a 1 hour bonanza with churning
grooves and bloody tunes.
It's
hard to find new words for this band, we all know what the guys from
the Haemorrhage are capable of. Their style is very recognizable and
remarkable. Their brand of gore has a moldy taste and an old school
punk spirit. I believe that this formula helps to keep this noise in
a fresh and cheerful condition. The catchy guitar sounds like a real
butcher buzzsaw (check songs from Gruesome Stuff Relish). In most
songs, you will only be able to feel the bass, but in songs 7-9
(split with Dead Infection) it's on the first line and it has a
monstrous sound. The blasting material from the split with German
band Dead is freaking furious, and one of the fastest materials that
I have heard from Haemorrhage. The vocal is the most stable thing
here, it's powerful and ugly in all songs. In all meanings
Haematology II is rad release and if you really love gore, you should
have this putrid piece in your collection!
Favorite
songs: "In the Name of Sanity", "Canarios Y
Jilgueros", “Ausgebombt”.
