Well - GORELORD - Zombie Suicide Part 666. On the first sight it doesn't look like music someone could seriously listen to - I don't even want to know which quantities of legal/illegal drugs have been involved in the creation of this album title but who cares about the name? Anyway, when the music is listenable. Actually GORELORD is only consisting of one band member - Frediablo, who has been playing in Necrophagia, Wurdulak, Soul Forsaken and Grimfist so far as well (at least the press info says so…). But lets go on with the most important part now - the music.
The first tones of the CD kinda shocked me, since the sound was like VERY poor and I thought OUCH, that's not for serious, is it?! Anyway, after a few seconds all my misgivings ended up in smoke, as this strange sound was blown away by the first riffs of The Stench Of Flesh Decomposing. Frediablo is indenturing simple but effective Death Metal riffs, with a (mostly) almost continuous line of double bass drumming, loosen with some snare and cymbal beats. I'm quite sure that he's using a drum computer, since it just sounds too monotonous for a human drummer. The vocals are a mixture between shrill cries, death grunts and gore gargles. All that together sure got some entertaining factor - but it's just not like this would totally kick me out of my boots. It's not as extreme and shocking as Frediablo probably does it want to be. Humm I really wonder why the hell he put those 2 demo tracks on the CD - anyway, it sounds like a bootleg recorded with a mobile phone or something.
To keep it short this album is sure listenable, more or less - for the total Gore/Grind Overkill you still better go back to good old Nasum, Exhumed, Regurgitate and stuff. 6 points and a wish for the next album - get a drummer of flesh and blood - even if he's undead.
