Skinless – From Sacrifice To Survival (2003)

February 12, 2024

From Sacrifice To Survival is probably my least favourite Skinless release. Nothing about the songs here pop out at me. Older stuff is grimier, nastier, more savage. Later stuff is more slammy / precise and fuckin’ brutal. This one kinda just falls through the cracks in the middle, which is a pretty shitty analysis to make but I can’t think of how else to describe it, because there’s nothing necessarily wrong with this album, it just doesn’t press any of the right buttons. It gets a 3/5 though because it’s incredibly well made and performed.

The artwork is also fairly terrible, let’s be honest.
