chewable cyst - no country will escape america

Creepy, industrial, heavy as a ton of bricks, faster than crazy glue. If you hate GW Bush, this is for you.

... insane drum machine grind from members of Deadfood, Fetus Eaters

Seven songs of fluid Industrimetal oddity ...

song description snippets:

... a droning wash of guitars and minimal disembodied vocals interspersed with random blast beats...
.. a dark intro, before an intense white noise blast, then drifts a little, and a strange theme follows that doesn't really lead anywhere but still sounds good, a little like a more hyper Melvins. ...a rhythm and riff is heard, sludgey and demonic and topped off with oddball, Lard-esque vocals!....

... electro infused piece, featuring scuzzy chugs, Mortician style, with industrial style distorted vocals... strange orchestral keyboards, stabs, weird shouts, then music as if lifted from a British 50's comedy film takes over..... a quirky electro beat beneath the chugging guitars and heavily processed vocals that plays out like a filthier, more irreverent version of Skrew or something along those lines....

spastic, jerky tantrum that mixes dramatic slow beats, with weird electronic beats, frantic screams and a monotone spoken vocal.....

mixes Middle Eastern melody with more whimsical electronic beats, and weaves into it digital Grindcore blasts that stop and start as the rest plays out..... Mr Bungle-isms with death vocals, Egyptian melodies and demented nightmare-ish techno.... a combination of sounds ala The Devils, Send More Paramedics, Brujeria, A.C. and babies having fits to imagine the chaos...

Industrial Metal sort of sound but breaks it up with ambient synth interludes and samples.... moderately more straight forward Grindcore track, that uses some awkward processing on the vocals to kind of double them up...

dirging sludge atmospheres ... a droning more spacious track, loosely akin to the more abstract Godflesh songs.

The production on this is a bit raw, but I think everything comes through alright, and I think gives it more impact than if it was real polished. Definitely not what I was expecting from a band named Chewable Cyst whose first track is called "Cocksmoker." It’s a pretty interesting record, and certainly different than most of what passes over my desk. Probably not for everyone, but enjoyable.
