Description
Paraphilia is an American death metal band hailing from the pacific northwest (Portland, Oregon)
This cellar dwelling duo debuted their nasty brand of guttural destruction in the form of 2021’s EP Primordium of Sinister Butchery. A frenzied titanic sized sixteen minute beatdown.
So here we are now 2023, brings us their ‘super’ debut full length “The Memory of Death Given Form”.
This record is already creating some major ruckus in death metals underground circle. Comprised solely of SP (vocals/guitars/bass/programming) and KRP (vocals/lyrics), Paraphilia’s brand of brutal & technical death metal is of the thick and chunky variety. Foot stomping groove mixed with gut punching brutality. This unmerciful bastard child snorts, snarls, growls, and lurks about waiting to hammer your bones into dust.
The song structures are complex enough to impress, but also memorable and downright unforgiving in the headbanging department. With a touch of the old school, some intricate guitar dissonance, masterfully written songs, and teeth loosening heaviness, “The Memory of Death Given Form” will delight and destroy even the hardened of death metal elites.
It contains 7 massive tracks (with a Bloodbath cover) chock-full of sophisticated
dense riffs and relentless drum pummelling that’s nothing short of being an aural sledgehammer, the album kicks off with a crushing track that takes no prisoners. Technically proficient but insanely groovy “Memory of Death Given Form” is a thick beast of jarring tempos and vomit inducing guitar savagery.
Harsh, drawn out gutturals over rhythmic guitar mayhem is enough to make anyone feel like they could run straight through a brick wall. Unadulterated death metal ferocity.
To put it bluntly, this is DAMN fucking GOOD, and you would be hard-pressed to find any better death metal this year. Sure for fans of: Bloodbath, Hate Eternal, Suffocation, Devourment & similar.
Available on a delicious super marble 180gr. vinyl, this version (yellow/black) is limited at 100 copies.
