FLATULENT SERMON - Purulent Revelry (BRUTAL CAVE Productions - CD 2021)
"Purulent Sanctification of Disgorged Revelry" is a debut demo from Oregon, US death metal band Flatulent Sermon. Luckily, the band came to thought that this title may be slightly “too catchy” (hah), so they shortened it to simple "Purulent Revelry" and so the CD was released through Brutal Cave Productions. There's something truly great going on in the North American death metal scene (both US and Canadian), with so many excellent new bands... There's something fresh and exciting in many new demos or albums... Flatulent Sermon is no different. This demo shreds. Three songs are here, all filled with brutality, gore, sickness and putridity. And played in the fine tradition started by the old zombies from Baphomet, Pyrexia, Morta Skuld, Suffocation, Incantation... and more of corpse.
Flatulent Sermon does not reinvent the wheel, these guys just stick to what we all love the most about that brutal US death metal style. And that is absolutely fine for me. They have some killer riffs spread through all these songs, there's sort of brutal groove in it, with a crushing wall of noise tearing your flesh into disgusting piles of blood and slabs of meat. And I do like how Flatulent Sermon sounds here. Sure, they have a lot of room to improve, to become better in many aspects... but as it is, "Purulent Revelry" is a fuckin solid demo, worth checking out. I think it is a pure sadistic pleasure to listen to such stuff and I always want more. I am glad then that labels like Brutal Cave bring it to a daylight and they put these demos on CDs. A 7” vinyl would be fine too!
Verdict: 70/100
