Birdflesh / Organ Dealer
I was pretty excited when I heard about this beautiful split a year ago. Okay from the start I was worried a little bit, because both of the bands changed their line ups. Birdflesh and Organ Dealer has changed their guitar players. But that has no effect on the bands in general. Both of the bands did not change their grind formulas, and both of them are still tight as fuck! Alex Eckman-Lawn made a great cover design! This art looks great, these colors are pierced by a deep atmosphere of gloom. And also I want to draw your attention to small details in this picture. The whole work looks pretty modern, but, damn, good.
Birdflesh is opening Hell's gates. Their side started with pretty dark intro, gloomy but sweet melodies which are turned into grind madness, in just a few short seconds. Hmm, I guess the whole sound became more heavy, with metal undertones. But, like a decade ago, they`re still playing their funny madness. I can recognize these riffs everywhere, haha! That branded chainsaw sound hard to confuse with anything else. The same can be said about screaming vocals, they perfectly fit to this music. Bass and drums combo are great too, crusty bass sound perfectly mix with d and blast beats. Well these 10 songs are great soundtrack for the the beginning of harvesting.
From New Jersey with Grind! After their full split and few big tours, Organ Dealer became pretty popular. These boy are representitive of the new age of Grind. They are mixing many different music genres with old and good grindcore. In my opinion it`s really good, because experiments are always more interesting than cookie cutter things. The change in line up brings more positive noticeable changes for Organ Dealer. With this new “guitar hero” their sound became more juicy and thick. Also the whole of their side sounds pretty sharp. Their sound is a dangerous mutant which contains metal, hardcore and grind. Also there is so much fast and crazy parts with monstrous blast beats and buzzing riffs. This band is still new, but I feel that they will have a great future.
