Band: Vulnificus

Country: USA

Genre: Brutal death metal

EP: Innomination

Format: Digital, CD

Label: Independent

Release date: November 26, 2021

Damn, I haven’t felt or heard something this vile in a long time. This is the kind of Demo that will melt your body down from the outside in!

VULNIFICUS with INNOMINATION

So this is the debut demo by the band featuring three songs

-Scraped and Scattered

-Induced Rampage

-Innomination

With just over eleven minutes in run time this thing wastes NO TIME in being one of the most disgusting, brutal and most devastating metal demos you’ll ever hear (not just this year, but period!) On the description on Bandcamp the lists of genres they claim to me are

-Brutal Death Metal

-Metal

But to me this is straight up Grindcore territory! Hell even Deathened Grindcore if that exists? Honestly this demo is just 11 minutes of grimy, unforgiving and punishing noise on a silver platter! The vocals are low and distorted, almost sounding like Lo Fi pig squeals! The guitar work is monstrous in size as well as those luring drums ever so sinister in motion as they guide the three tracks right to the deepest depths of hell.

I’m really finding a hard time describing this demo any further then just some of the most demonic and hate filled metal I’ve heard in quite a while, these guys make a band like Dying Fetus sound soft in comparison! It’s absolutely ridiculous and I would challenge any ‘real metalhead’ to give this a try and see how they fair up!

It’s nasty, despicable and heavier than a heavy thing and I’m sure all you brutal metalheads will love this thing through and through! –Corban Skipwith
