Intense riffs and relentless blast beats
are the mark for “Epidemic.” This brutal death metal and
grind assault is brought to you by Kuru.
They have this nasty, raw sound, that kind of gives this record an
extra edge, definitely more brutal. Probably due to the heavy down
tuned guitars and pounding drums. It will make you think of Cannibal
Corpse, Dying Fetus, and Skinless. Even the deep barking, guttural
vocals are comparable to Cannibal Corpse. Even though Kuru has many
things going for themselves, this is really just straightforward and
repetitious. And at times their music can seem confused. The band
may need to tighten up a little to…they just seem a little unorganized
at times. Combine all that and it almost makes you thing they rushed
to write the record. The fifteen songs and over thirty-one minutes
are at least decent, but could be better. Generally the tracks are
under three minutes and they seem kind of quick. I’m sure this
will get some death metalhead’s attention, but probably won’t
do much for other metalheads. Rating: 71 |
