Were there a prize for the longest album-title of the year, FLESHCRAWL would be a hot contender... After the very quick and none less surprising demise of their label Invasion Records, the Swabians have found a new home with Metal Blade Records, hopefully a lasting one after all the problems they have had in the past.
Anyway, FLESHCRAWL have already proved themselves as one of Germany's most persistent Death Metal-bands and can be counted in the domestic top division. Stylistically they offer immensely heavy Death Metal of brutality-class no. 1 on the one hand and quite nice melodies on the other, which can stand the test of most internationally established acts. Also the quintet has taken on the EXCITER-classic "Swords Of Darkness" and did a good job in transferring it to Death Metal.
The sound has turned out to be great as well, I only say Studio Fredman in Gothenburg...
Every Death-gourmet should not pass by this tasty slaughter-platter, the Metal-vegetarians still should avoid this one nonetheless...
