Split CD Review: Kraanium/Existential Dissapation "Polymorphic Chamber of Human Consumption" (CDN Records) by Devin J. Meaney

Band: Kraanium
Country: Norway
Genre: Slam/brutal death metal
Band: Existential Dissapation
Country: Canada
Genre: Brutal death metal
Split CD: Polymorphic Chamber of Human Consumption
Format: CD, digital
Label: CDN Records
Release date: April 29, 2022
One of the CDs I recently ordered from CDN was “Polymorphic Chamber of Human Consumption”…this is a split between Kraanium and Existential Dissapation! Normally I would review both bands separately—but as both bands share a very similar sound—for once I will lump them both together.
The first thing that I need to say is that both bands are very “Dying Fetus-ish”. I am also reminded of acts like Skinless and Disgorge! Deep gutturals with slamming guitars paired with immaculate percussion and a vibe that is heavy and booming brings on an intense need to bang my head!
Each band throws up six tracks with the full release clocking in at just over 40 minutes. This was released directly by CDN and once again CDN has proven that they are an exceptional label. The production quality and professionalism of this disc is top tier—and the cover art is pretty intriguing to boot!
To make a close I will just say once again that if you are a fan of bands like DF and Skinless and Disgorge—maybe you should give this one a listen. It’s damn good eh? -Devin J. Meaney
