Lyrics:
Uncomfortable, itching and scratching
I'm suffocated by a natural occurrence
Shaking, I grab it, looking to free myself
Boxcutter to my chin, I feel relieved

Cutting
Relieved
Purging
Cleave

Inherent and innate, I'm spontaneous
Irritated flesh, choked underneath
Sever what's useless, unnecessary bond
A futile gift, shear the impractical organ

Cutting
Relieved
Purging
Cleave

Cleave (Single)

Cleave

Lyrics: 

Torn asunder, fields of anguish
Carnage rages, scream in terror
BLOOD FEAST, VIOLENT RITUAL
DESTRUCTION OF PURITY IN FLESH
CRUEL ENTITY..
UNLEASH THE SAVAGE INSTINCT, CRUEL ENTITY... UNLEASH THE SAVAGE INSTINCT
CRUEL ENTITY... UNLEASH THE SAVAGE INSTINCT, CRUEL ENTITY... UNLEASH THE SAVAGE INSTINCT
Vile consumption, organs failing
Contorted bodies, death prevailing
BUTCHER'S FANTASY, FLESH DECIMATED
TORTURED SCREAMS OF SOULS DEFILED
RELENTLESS BEAST... FEAST UPON THE CARNAGE, RELENTLESS BEAST... FEAST UPON THE CARNAGE
RELENTLESS BEAST... FEAST UPON THE CARNAGE, RELENTLESS BEAST... FEAST UPON THE CARNAGE
Coals draped in blood and sinew
Bones mashed into one conjunction
Set ablaze the world as an exhibition
Some might say this is too cruel (BUT WHO THE FUCK CARES?!)
I WRITE MY OWN EPIPHANY
DESCRIBING ALL THE VICTIMS I'VE KILLED
DECORATING MY HOUSE WITH BLOOD EAGLE SPLENDOUR
THIS IS TRUE ECSTASY!
[SOLO]
[SOLO]

Torn asunder, fields of anguish
Carnage rages, scream in terror
BLOOD FEAST, VIOLENT RITUAL
DESTRUCTION OF PURITY IN FLESH
CRUEL ENTITY..
UNLEASH THE SAVAGE INSTINCT, CRUEL ENTITY... UNLEASH THE SAVAGE INSTINCT
CRUEL ENTITY... UNLEASH THE SAVAGE INSTINCT, CRUEL ENTITY... UNLEASH THE SAVAGE INSTINCT
YOU WERE DEAD THE MOMENT I LAID EYES ON YOU!

Welcome back to The Great Metal Debate podcast. It’s Xander, and today I'm bringing you a review for the international brutal death metal band Maimed with their crushing debut titled Propagate Onslaught released on April 19th through Sewer Rot Records.

Much like the newest Aborted record, nearly every song has either a special guest providing either additional vocals or a guitar solo. Speaking of the vocals, Kyle Messick is a ferocious monster on the microphone. His wet tunnel throat capabilities are absolutely disgusting sounding and I mean that in the best possible way. If you're into brutal death metal you'd love these type of low gutturals.

The harsh growls are accompanied by the main guitarist Tom Hughes and bassist Ian Dygulski. But we also gotta mention the staple in very high octane adrenaline pumping type of music. What would brutal death metal even be with out a drummer who can provide machine gun fire esq gravity blast beats. Justin Wallisch does an incredible job behind the kit pounding the skins into oblivion.

Apparently this record was mixed by Clinton Appelhanz who is also the bass player of Origin and Unmerciful.

Before diving into this album track by track, I feel like its also worth mentioning the Torrential Gore (EP) is a great place to start when getting into the full-length. It serves as a brutal appetizer for the chaos that this album brings.

Kicking things off, we have "Herald of the Maelstrom" which features the guitarist of Gridlink, Takafumi Matsubara who provides a solo. It's an all out in your face rager of a song much like the following track "The Slaughter of Lambs". This one features yet another guest who provides another solo. This time, it's Dan Ozcanli from the band Nucleus.

Sometimes it takes a few listens before I can tell the difference in brutal death songs but I've heard the next track "Death that Obviates the Appellation of Graves" enough times to be able to tell when Eston Browne from Vulnificus steps in to lay down vocals. During my first couple of listens I didn't notice the slight shift vocal pitch. But after tuning my ears just right, I finally knew when Eston was on the mic.

"Sewage Madness Folly" and "Armament & Brigandine" are the two back to back tracks that don't have guest features but "Arbalestier" has Andrew Lee, the guitarist of Ripped To Shreds shredding out two solos on this track.

"Oppugnation" is the next track which features not just one but three guests vocalists. The first of them is Mike DiSalvo from Akurion and former Cryptopsy. The next vocalist is Batu Çetin of Cenotaph, particularly Cenotaph from Turkey. Not to be confused with the the other Cenotaph death metal band from Mexico. Batu was also formerly in the band Molested Divinity. Last but not least, we have Jake Shuker from Maysaloon.
The album title track "Propagate Onslaught" has two guest guitar solos from Cody Knarr from Ascended Master. It also features guest vocalist Mallika from Emasculator. Most of you probably remember her being the vocalist for the band Abnormality.

"Forging Providence (The Futility of the Cosmos)" is the last track on the album but does not feature any guests.

What are my thoughts about this record as a whole? It has all the right ingredients to make a great brutal death metal album. Plenty of down tuned guitar chugs, bass drops, blast beats and gutturals. What more could you possibly add when it comes to this genre. The reason I don't typically rate brutal death metal records so high is because of the bare bones structure to this type of music. It's a simple recipe to get the mosh pits going and people's heads banging.

The highest rating I ever give brutal death metal albums is 7/10. So if I give it that high of a rating, then it is what I would call high quality for that particular style. I love this Maimed record and I'm sure most extreme metalheads will. You can support these guys by following their social media and purchasing their music on their Bandcamp page.
