Fetus Stench: Demo 2011
04/03/11 || Lord K Philipson
Can you smell it? The fetus stench, bitches! You get a somewhat good picture about what these guys can possibly present on this demo just by looking at the moniker. Yep, it’s a shit name for a band, but it’s also perfect in the sense that it oozes death metal. Which, ofcourse, is what these kids are playing. Fuck did you think?
They are Swedes, which is almost always a promising thing, and they feature members from acts such as The Law, Slaughterous and Blood Red Throne. Drummer Emil is the only fucko/drummer who’s replaced Tobben “Golden T” Gustafsson for a Vomitory show (The Golden One had back surgery and they needed someone to fill the spot). That should say a few things about his skills, apart from the fact that he’s playing with Norwegian killer deathsters Blood Red Penis. The very same Tobben recommended Fetus Stench to me, so you know this is bound to be above decent. Tobben is one picky muthafucker.
And it fucken is. Despite the quite poor production job (biggest downside being the insanely annoying snare sound in the blast sections), Fetus Stench fire up 4 tracks of very catchy and groovy death metal, proving they demand attention in the scene. And they might very well deserve it too, that’s how good this demo is. Give these Fetus-fuckos a few years and a better budget (so you can hire Dan Swanö to do the sound, meaning your potential will really come through) and they might very well be able to enter the next level.
To hand out a debut demo of this caliber is a very good sign and I can only agree with my Torture Division/The Project Hate MCMXCIX colleague, Tobben: this is some good shit. With an ace production this would most likely have blown me the fuck away. Now it’s “just” better (alot better) than your average death metal band of today. Not to mention their logo looks neater than most of the logos out there. All this leads up to a score of:
You can download this demo here. And I hereby tell you to do just that, fucko. Thank me later.
