Totally missed this the first time around. Yeah, the album sounds great. Only listened to it a few times so far but I think I'll end up playing it a fair bit more than No One Is Lost.

Brutal Juice - Mutilation Makes Identification Difficult

Judging by the name of the band, album and the tracks themselves, I was fully expecting to hate this album. Somehow it turned out to be right up my alley. I also have to give it credit for being the most obscure band/album that's been posted here yet. I couldnt find it on Google Play, Spotify or anywhere for free, legally. Hell, I couldnt even find the lyrics to this album which means this review is as good as useless since I cant really get in depth. Under ideal conditions Id be able to just focus on the music for an hour and study the lyrics the old-fashioned way, but Ive been incredibly scatterbrained this week and I just cant sit still long enough to do something like that. As for the quality, it is a real shame that this was only available on Youtube because I can only imagine how much better this sounds at CD quality.

This album seems so steeped in its era that I want to say it sounds grungy. I mean the vocals are punk/hardcore and they play way too fast but I dont know if its the guitar tones or the way it was mixed.. But it feels so mid 90s and I cant really understand why. Especially since I wasnt listening to anything this hard back then. Its really hard to talk about the songs because the more I listen, the more I think about how much better this could all sound. The overall musicality is so much better than what I expected from an album with tracks like Kentucky Fuck Daddy and The Vaginals, and their bassist especially seems like a real stud. Its so fucking weird that this band seems to have disappeared when they were this talented. Like I cant even find any info on the bassist because he shares a name with some character from General Hospital.

Seriously. Where the fuck are these guys, and in the age of the internet how is it impossible to find this album for download? None of this makes any goddamn sense. Im sitting here staring at the Amazon confirmation screen wondering how much this album is worth to me ($3.49 shipping on a $5.45 CD) and whether or not I should order this thing from freaking Germany. Also not sure if I'll still care when it gets here a month from now. I guess that tells you all you need to know about my thoughts on this album. I'm enamored.

Final Rating: If the liner notes contain lyrics Im fucking IN/10

I am so screwed whenever I decide to update the rankings.
