Hard to believe that it's been over a decade since Denver eardrum destroyers Cephalic Carnage first hit the scene with their debut album Conforming To Abnormality. Now on album number six, they're still as rugged as ever, churning out their one-of-a-kind blend of technically tight, hyper-harsh grindcore-meets-death metal, served with a healthy dose of humor and sprinkled with completely unexpected musical change-ups, be it through subtle sound effects, jazzy strum breakdowns, or a surprise sax appearance. Though this is their first release without guitarist Zac Joe, they don't seem to miss him, and while it may not be quite as over-the-top as their much-loved Xenosapien, it will undoubtedly satisfy open-minded metalheads looking for some next-level mayhem. Standout tracks include "The Incorrigable Flame" and "Dimensional Modulation Transmography."
