Embalming Theatre - Unamused Rancid Flesh (Haunted Hotel rec)

Bloody gore/death/grind from Switzerland - the land of mouldy cheese, 
inaccessible banks and best watches, it took its pizzazz from criminal chronicles. In truth, living in morern sick changeable society depresses and frightens. Psychopaths hell around and crave for your sapid flesh.
Let's face it, everyone once speculated on how human meat tastes. I am really obsessed with this kind of thoughts since the moment I've heard "Unamused Rancid Flesh". The record comtains 15 tracks of hell, provoking your dark instincts and transportong you to the epoch of troglodytes! The style of Embalming Theatre stirs up heated discussions among listeners, but there is no consensus on that. I class it as bony mixture of oldschool death and goregrind (its elements are wide-spread in Sweden). Record quality is superb, the sound is cool- what else could I ask for? I like saucy guitars, punk moments are blithesome. Art is classical. 
I would say, there is a trace of rizzly and very talented Polish artist Zdzisław Beksiński (unfortunately, now-deceased). It is important to note that guys recorded the material at good old Schweine Sounds, that is why I highly recommend this release to admirers of Charles Manson and Jeffrey Dahmer!)
