Dogpile – Revved Up, Wiped Out, Battered, Shattered, Creamed And Reamed (1991)

April 26, 2020

What in the absolute holy fuck is this? Dogpile appear to be a gay porn focused industrial metal band (yes you read that right) from the 90s. They had a few short releases and that was that. This is… what is this, exactly? Musically, the tracks are rather tight; mechanical industrial drum machine tropes up against riffs upon riffs upon riffs. The production is a little flat, but nothing unforgivable.

And then, you have the vocals. It sounds as if someone has let a madman loose into the studio and allowed him to record over the top of the tracks. Kinda like Metallica did with Lou Reed. This record is in that same ballpark of awful.
