Stabbing - Eon of Obscenity
I really am trying to get into this one, but it just feels flat a lot of times. Stabbing surely know how to deliver a solid performance, but the new album sounds a bit “out of breath”.
Maybe it is the endless chugging that is accompanying the record. Or the glitchy riffs, which work only 50% of the time.
Last time I told myself to listen to this more, because I felt that there is room to grow with this album, but it seems there is none for me.
Bridget Lynch’s vocals are a standout performance though. Deep gurgles, manic choke-like passages and perfect shrieks would elevate any other brutal death metal records.
As it stands now, Eon of Obscenity will remain at 1/5.
