BEWARE: Beyond the confines of this warning lie some MILD spoilers!

Emerging out of trepid foundations and beyond negative fan reaction comes 2013′s Fede Alvarez helmed Evil Dead. With overwatch from the original film’s trio of producers (Bruce Campbell, Robert Tapert, and Sam Raimi), the 2013 reboot of the franchise delivers a fun, gore-soaked reinterpretation of the series for a new breed of torture-porn dazed, at your fingertip snuff video desensitized deadites that not only serves to replicate but to expand the mythos of the cult classic.

I love when bands record cover songs as b-sides or unreleased songs… and then release them. Devourment are the latest band to perform this with a fantastic new cover of a classic death metal tune. Taking a band that they are obviously influenced by, Devourment have spewed forth a sickening rendition of Cannibal Corpse‘s “The Pick-Axe Murders.” Continue reading »

An’ lemme jus’ say: Fuck December 21st in it’s ass. Ain’t no ‘pocalypse, mutha’ fuckas.

Man, there were way to many good albums released this year. I listened to as many as I could but there were some that I just couldn’t get to. There are also some that I listened to, just not enough for them to make my final list. I can’t let this slide, however and I want to give a shout out to new releases by Marty Friedman, The Mars Volta, Birds In Row, Code Orange Kids, Downfall Of Gaia and Krallice. I really wish I could have settled down to check these albums out in full, but I just couldn’t get down to do it.

Before we get to my actual list I would like to thank each and every one of you readers. Without you, I honestly probably would have given this up a long time ago. Sure, on this site I give my opinion on music, but it is really you guys/gals that count. I don’t know how I could repay you all for visiting American Aftermath these past two years. You have really made it worth while. Even the haters who talked shit, I appreciate you fucks also.

LOATHSOME Are Born From Rot

Born From Rot, cannibal corpse, death metal, Loathsome

I come in contact with new music all the time and sometimes I feel the need to share some of what I discover. Here’s a little band who was brought to my attention whom I feel have a lot of potential. Obviously the first thing you are going to notice is the gruesomely cartoonish artwork, which should give you an idea of what you are in for. If you thought slamming death metal than you are correct! Loathsome is a four piece death metal outfit whose debut release, Born From Rot, was put out by Gore House Productions earlier this year. What Loathsome have to offer you is a cavalcade of brutal riffs that fans of Cannibal Corpse and the like will appreciate. In addition to the ridiculous amounts of eviscerating riffs are the sickening, vile sounding vocals courtesy of vocalist Nev. This raw, blood and bile covered release are sure to satisfy the horror inspired death metal fan in everyone. The production on Born From Rot is not the best but this is a band still in its infancy and I predict that subsequent records will sound even better. You can stream the group’s debut release below if you so desire.

Do you guys know what the worst part of my day is? No, it’s not going to my soul crushing job, running out of weed, or falling on my skateboard. It’s actually having to listen to and write about Six Feet Under‘s new album. Cannibal Corpse #2 (aka Six Feet Under) have just made their new album, “Undead“, available for through Decibel Magazine which you can listen to here. Six Feet Under’s Undead comes out May 22 via Metal Blade.

I’m not really a fan of SFU but Undead is one of the best things I’ve ever heard by them (which isn’t saying much if anything). Undead actually didn’t leaving me wanting to jam pencils in my ears to escape boredom, however it did make me wanna listen to The Bleeding. Although I just expressed some positives about the album, I couldn’t make it through the whole thing.

What are you thoughts? Did you make it through the whole thing? Did it suck? Was it jamming? Am I just a douche bag? Let us know…

cannibal corpse, metal blade records, six feet under

Death metal legends Six Feet Under, led by former Cannibal Corpse vocalist Chris Barnes, is preparing to release their next unholy slab of death and gore in the form of Undead, which will see released via Metal Blade Records on May 22nd. I’ve heard a few tracks from the album already and it sounds very promising. The band is leaning much more towards straight-up death metal and further away from the death ‘n roll sound they have utilized previously. The band have just released the first track from Undead titled “Formaldehyde” and it’s a crusher for sure. Along with the track, the band has unveiled the album art and the track listing. You can check the song and the artwork below and the track list after the jump. Enjoy.

It was announced last night that Scotland’s deathgrind outfit Cerebral Bore will be opening up the Summer Slaughter tour this year. The full line-up consists of Cannibal Corpse, Between The Buried And Me, Job For A Cowboy, Periphery, The Faceless, Veil of Maya, Goatwhore, Exhumed and now Cerebral Bore. It was before rumored that Fleshgod Apocalypse would be on the tour, but this has been ruled as simply a rumor. Should be an interesting show. Check out a track by Cerebral Bore and I will post the tour dates when they are released.

Well, it’s about fucking time. A good, simple music video by my favorite band. Cannibal Corpse have created a lot of controversy in their tenure as a death metal act and with that have released many interesting and graphic videos. Well, they have struck again with their new video for the track “Encased In Concrete.”

I fucking love this track and the bands new album. I agree with a friend I have at the band’s label, Metal Blade Records, that this new album has elements present in both Evisceration Plague and Kill but with some new stuff that has never been heard before. This is why Cannibal Corpse remains my favorite band. Check out the video below which premiered on Bloody Disgusting and has already been uploaded to YouTube. Hoo-rah! Enjoy, fuckers.

Torture is available now on Metal Blade Records!

Okay, I am Cannibal Corpse fan who has loved everything the band has put out (yes including both Barnes and Corpsegrinder on vox and every single album), some more than others but nonetheless, I am glad to call them one of my all time favorite bands. Today the band started streaming their second unveiled track from the forthcoming album Torture which is due out on March 13th via Metal Blade Records (where the band has been since their debut Eaten Back To Life).

The first track that was released (“Demented Aggression”) was fucking intense. I loved it and think it’s some of the band’s best work in a while and this new track “Scourge Of Iron” is brutally superior to “Demented Aggression.” The track is streaming over at Revolver’s website, but seeing as I don’t like visiting Revolver’s site, I decided to check YouTube. Hooray for the internetz, the song has already been uploaded and it is now embed-able. Check out “Scourge Of Iron” below and read what bassist and founding member Alex Webster had to say about the album after the jump.

Does Anyone Actually Care: Summer Slaughter Announces This Years Headliners

Between The Buried And Me, cannibal corpse, Summer Slaughter

Summer Slaughter has begun to reveal bands that are slated to be on this years edition of the tour and it looks like Cannibal Corpse and Between The Buried and Me will be headlining. Now, If you have ‘liked’ the SS page on Facebook then you probably could have guessed that these two bands were going to be on the bill because at the beginning of the year, a status update was posted saying “Hammer Smashed Mordecai”.

As of now, my hopes for this years edition of SS are fairly low. Not that these bands are bad, but they aren’t great either. It’s more than likely that the rest of the line up will consist of mostly Summer Slaughter alumni and some deathcore bands. We won’t officially know the full line up for a few more weeks seeing as the tour promoters will be announcing one band per week on their Facebook page. Until then, let’s speculate in the comments for funz. Oh, by the way, someone oughta sue the touring agency for this shit because it definitely won’t be “the most extreme tour of the year”.
