Funerot Invasion of the Death Dimension Review
by Hobo
.
Looking at the cartoonish cover of a robut, zombies, chunder and general derangement I can honestly say I had no idea what Funerot had in for me. The answer? Stylish, classy death/thrash grooves, blistering hot lead lines, mind boggling musicianship and song revolving around comic book, horror film and sci-fi inspired anecdotes. Their primary influence leans towards thrash as opposed to the death/grind tendencies of Engorged, and their vocals might sound more at home on a hardcore punk rock album. But those lead lines! The riffs! The dual-guitar shredding with ridiculously over the top solos! These guys sure know how to play their instruments. Their style is somewhat similar to older Engorged (minus the gore, grind and general sloppiness) mixed with the catchy good natured fun of Ghoul though every single riff, every solo, every lick and every riff-tail is injected with as much pure style and flashy musicianship as inhumanly possible. An absolutely awesome debut album a hell of a lot of fun. At times I think this album may just have surpassed Engorgeds Where Monsters Dwell in terms of catchiness, musicianship, raw talent, enjoyment
well everything! Head over for some MP3s now!!!
