Embryonic Cryptopathia / Biological Monstrosity / Vomitoma – Split Tape (2010)

February 23, 2021

I’ve had good experiences with ExCx in the past, but here the rehearsal room feel is a little too rustic. The riffs sound fuckin’ great – when the rest of the din stops and you can hear them. But hey, this is sloppy goregrind, can I really complain?

Biological Monstrosity are the most solid band on this split by a country mile. They play extra dirty, lightening fast goregrind topped with disgusting watery vocals. They are, of course, a band after mine own heart.

Vomitoma resort in this case to rounding out the trilogy of gore with a bass-driven gorenoise assault. True, the line between “gorenoise” and “goregrind done crappily” is a very thin one, and no disrespect to Vomitoma, but here the line is trodden very precariously.
