### Dissection: Dissected tapes

#### 17/04/09 || Kampfar

This release is not, and I repeat, this release is not insanely worthy of a review – but because we have manners buried beneath the A.I.D.S here at GD, aka reviewing whatever sent to us, so happened anyway. I think I’ve used something very similar as an intro circa 12 times already, but fuck the semantics, what I’m about to half-heartedly spend a couple of hundred words on is a Lithuanian death ensemble long gone. I was about to add “and forgotten”, but the last time I checked you had to be heard of and sort of known to be forgotten in the first place.

“Dissected tapes”, a ’09 release consisting of two obscure demo’s conceived in the early 90’s, starts out in the worst possible of ways. I kid you not, the intro to this all in all forgettable affair is hilariously crap to the max, one of the worst attempts I’ve ever heard, and this from an idiot who’s wasted 20 years on metal by now. Enough about the prelude, what follows are at least better, fuckloads even, but in this case it only means the music is tolerable. Barely so.

The first part, song 1-7 that is, is tainted by a lacking production, one ensuring that the death at hand packs close to zero oomph, and the second part, although not otherwise great, is shat on by a dude with no grasp of the growl whatsoever. Hell, I’d fucking growl better than him through a straw. With both lungs punctured. In a studio filled with helium. And I’m not that good to begin with. No fucking wonder they called it quits if this anti-growler was the best their town had to offer, and it’s the same fucking dude who does an almost adequate job on the first demo. Therefore I assume he became a heroine-junkie in between recording.

Not the worst shit I’ve ever heard this, but still not good enough for me to grasp why Ledo Takas Records found it necessary to re-release them here tape demos on disc. Some will, of that I’m sure, the world is after all teeming with idiots, but if you aren’t one of said twats, give Old Funeral a go instead. If you’re after underproduced, old-school death that is.

4 out of 10.
