  • Hypocrisy frontman Peter Tagtgren steps into this death metal killing machine in order to masterfully lead Bloodbath through 14 brand new tracks that illustrate the band's ability to meld technicality with memorable refrains which sing the praises of all that is moribund. 'Nightmares Made Flesh' aims to pummel listeners to a bloody pulp with grinding rhythms, machine gun drum blasts and vocals which are completely raw and intense, but at once, comprehendible and catchy. 'Brave New Hell' is a wicked journey toward the abyss, featuring varied tempos and crunching guitar rhythms. Tagtgren can manipulate his voice in a number of sick contortions, all of which fit the music of Bloodbath very well and he also is a major factor in making these songs memorable with his ear catching barking. The buzzing blast of power behind 'Feeding The Undead' provides a substantial backdrop to Tagtgren's bloodsoaked vocal rumblings. The ominous strains of 'Eaten' show that Bloodbath can pull off a grotesque death anthem at a more lumbering pace. 'Year Of The Cadaver Race' is one of the highlights of the record, complete with buzzing flies and screams of agony. Bloodbath pack way more terror filled thrills into a single album than you can get from a big budget horror movie and the best part is that you get to visualize the sick insanity for yourself. A definite death metal milestone.
