Yet
another installment of old-school death metal revival/worship, this time from
Dutch 5-piece Absorbed. The point where things are too heavy to be thrash
anymore is where we find bands like this, pumping out down-picking and skank
beats galore. "Twisted Backwards" contains some of the best guitar work on
the album, courtesy of Ferdy and Jeroen. Oddly enough, my favorite track was
the instrumental "Back to Infinity". This is likely due to the fact that
it's just different from the others, and that's not to say that the other
songs aren't good, but it's simply a nice breathing spot for Absorbed where
the music is left to convey all of the emotions on its own. Lyrically,
Absorbed are generally gore, though they have more maturity in their horror
text than alot of others do. Albums like this are definitely not a novelty in
the ever-evolving realm of extreme metal, but have certain nostalgic value to
them.
