Horrific Disease ‎– Outbreak

​We remain crawling in the festering world of death metal for a while.  This time however, we're going to Japan to check out a brutal combo named Horrific Disease.  Founded and fronted by Makoto Mizoguchi (Abraxas, Hate Eternal, Internal Suffering...), Horrific Disease aims to create a blend of thrash and grindcore.  After some line-up changes since the inception in 2011, the band is now a two-piece, featuring Haruhisa Takahata (Defiled) on bass and vocals.

'Outbreak' generally is a brutal, hyperspeed death metal album with tons of blast beats, tormenting guitars and sick growls.  In fact, it just never ends.  The songs are quite short and follow each other with great intensity.  Tracks like 'Waste It Now!', 'Newborn Reapers' and 'Lord Of Avengement' drill though the listeners skull and feast on his brains.  Or at least, so they sound.  This definitely isn't something to play when you're suffering from a hangover, that's for sure.

Here and there a breather is added, but those aren't really soothing piece of music.  They're musical version of apocalyptic visions, dark, eerie and haunting soundscapes.  They're also alternated by the brutally grinding songs which clearly are characteristic for Horrific Disease.  Besides, I think even hardcore punk fans can appreciate this.  'Hateful Praying' for example.  Somehow this song reminds me of bands like Hatebreed and company.

So what do I recommend?  Well, why not check it out.  This album balances between technical death metal and brutal grindcore and does so quite convincing.  There's a bit of melody too, sometimes.  The majority of the music is, naturally, loathsome faceripping extreme metal and perfectly capable of causing moshpits wherever it is played.
