I was drawn to this reissue just because of the album cover. Luis Sendón did a great job (again haha). He has drawn the band members in the mosh battlefield with different funny and evil characters. The whole work looks purely fantastic! Everlasting Spew Records took responsibility for re-releasing this magical album, also it was they who asked Luis to draw this crazy picture.
We can name Birdflesh as a classic Swedish Grindcore band. This squad has a long drunk history, many awesome releases and a ton of the shows behind under their belts.
The “Night Of The Ultimate Mosh” is the second album in their big discography. Its obvious that this is a time-honored and well known album, and it immediately grabs your attention. You know you’re in for some crazy grind. Oh yes, I almost forgot to say, this edition has a small but lovely present. All of the sound was remastered and now this piece sounds far more juicy and killer.
“Night Of The Ultimate Mosh” shoots an insanely blasting and heavy riff right through you. This album is a fantastic mix of Grindcore and 100% charge of fun. During your listening you may have a feeling that you are at some crazy party, with demonic farmers, serial killers, clowns and big octopus, hahah. The guitar is distorted enough to cause lovely feelings in the ears, same with the bass. Punky drums with nice blast beat moments are perfectly in sync and keep the fun atmosphere alive. There is one thing in Birdflesh that I like the most, the vocals. I respect Adde, he is pretty skilled, making blast beats and screaming at the same time… that is insane, haha!
This album is a great choice if you have a hard day, your wife divorced you, your dog pooped on your bosses rug, or you lost your job. Put this hellish CD in the player, you will immediately get a huge portion of positive energy and all these problems will leave you ;)

Literally 4 hours ago my postman brings me a new parcel. I found in there this CD with a review request; well let’s see what we have here. After few clicks in the Internet I find out that this release is 100% Italian. The label Everlasting Spew Records is based in Brescia and the bands Mindful Of Pripyat and Stench of Profit are from Milano and Venezia.I must notice, this cover art is really badass. The artist managed to create something gloomy, with a ton of small details. I especially like that he drew the Chernobyl nuclear power plant (believe it or not but I live not far from that place). And now let's put this CD in our player.
The first noises come from Mindful Of Pripyat. This is more of a death metal band than a grindcore one. But this band sounds pretty confident and energetic. The drums are loud, which is important because blast beats tend to lose some of the power if the drums are too low. The guitar section is there too, chainsaw sound with death metal taste (this perfectly fits into the whole picture). And of course we cant forget about the roaring vocals. The vocalist did a good job, his growling adds density to this music.
Next is Stench Of Profit. Their noises have a little bit of a raw sound and this stuff has more punk groove. But of course these songs have a good smell of death metal. Also it was really nice to find a woman in this band (sadly it`s pretty rare). Her yelling and guitar sounds very good. Mostly this band is playing in middle tempos and I feel a big influences from old bands (like Terorriser, Napalm Death, etc.) and it`s good. But unfortunately I can’t say that this band has many catchy riffs or memorable drums parts. But definitely this grind is pretty tasty.
