Remember Gorgasm? Yeah, that relic from the 90s Chicago death metal scene that nobody really cared about. Kinda like Fleshgrind, Lust Of Decay and Lividity. They always were around, but apparently nobody bought their records. So yeah, you know the story. Gorgasm formed in 1994, released a bunch of stuff that nobody really paid attention to, and packed their shit up in 2004. At some point these old men relocated to Lafayette, Indiana and hired about a third of Human Filletted, a band that sounded exactly like Gorgasm. Anyway, “Destined to Violate” is the first for their new label New Standard Elite, which is rapidly becoming what Unique Leader Records was in the early 2000s: home to all decent second-tier bands, and the occasional good new band. As usual there are the movie samples to introduce some of the songs, and as expected they are fucken annoying and tiring. Seriously, can we finally stop doing this? It wasn’t funny when Mortician did it in 1996, and is certainly isn’t fucken funny now. Geez. At least these old men remember that solo’ing is a good thing, and that it isn’t a requirement to blast at any and all times. I wish more bands were like this. For fucken reals. How hard can it be to do death metal right these days? For some reason these guys have issues with the wimminz, which either means they never got the fangirls they wanted, or touched a boob really late in life. Who the fucks knows, or cares at this point? It is uncanny how much this looks and sounds like an early Unique Leader product: old band, modern sound, Jon Zig cover “artwork” and a crunchy, sleek production job. Makes you wonder why suspicious bald man Erik Lindmark ever decided to sell his soul to the almight dollar, and signed dumb shit like Acrania, Fallujah, Halo Of Gunfire and the entirely awful Onion Rings Of Saturn. You know, half of the artist roster at this point. Gorgasm was on Unique Leader once too, back when that used to mean something. Anyway, I hope Gorgasm shoot a music video for this album, and that they hire Larkin Love to strut her stuff in that. So yeah, Gorgasm has a new record. Supposedly folks care about that.
