Obituary – Cause Of Death (1990)

May 13, 2022

For all the farmyard variety in death metal and grindcore vocals from around the globe and across modern history (lol), few are as animalistic and primal and disgusting as John Tardy. Your man here sounds like Taz on bath salts with one leg stuck in a bear trap. The art is a bit pants, but it is a classic after all so that can be forgiven (no shade at the artist, I’m just not sure what it is I’m looking at). Musically, the balance of the instrumentation is perfect. One for the books.
