Cannibal Corpse – Bloodthirst (1999)

December 2, 2023

Is it just me or does Cannibal’s art just get sillier and sillier as time goes on? Haha

Either way, this album bounces back a bit, not that the previous albums were bad or anything, it’s just that the songs on Bloodthirst seem to be more enjoyable. Opening with one of Cannibal’s best tunes, fucking “Pounded Into Dust” (also the shortest song on the album) absolutely smokes 99% of the bands in this style, sick vokills, sick drums, and my fucking lord the riffs! We are not worthy, etc etc…

Honestly, I slept on this one a bit thinking it was just another mid-career Cannibal album released in the tour-album-tour-album cycle, but this is one of my favourite’s of the Corpsegrinder era for sure.
