CANNIBAL CORPSE: Reigning Kings Of Death Metal Set To Release Twelfth Studio Album[views:19833][posts:30]_______________________________________ [Jan 16,2012 12:22pm - the_reverend ""] CANNIBAL CORPSE: Reigning Kings Of Death Metal Set To Release Twelfth Studio Album Artwork, Track Listing And First Single Revealed America's reigning kings of brutality, CANNIBAL CORPSE, will unleash their twelfth studio offering this March via Metal Blade Records. Aptly titled Torture, the follow-up to 2009's Evisceration Plague offers up 12 tracks of maniacally precise, soul-searing death metal. Torture was again produced by Hate Eternal's Erik Rutan at his own Mana Recording Studio in St. Petersburg, Florida as well as Sonic Ranch in Tornillo, Texas, and features the maniacal cover art by longtime CANNIBAL CORPSE artist, Vincent Locke, viewable HERE. While Torture marks the latest progression in the band's sound, it also witnesses a return to what drummer Paul Mazurkiewicz accurately terms "the frenzied attack of Butchered At Birth (1991) or Tomb Of The Mutilated (1992)," infusing the band's advanced musicianship with the raw savagery that haunted their earlier releases, and in the process conceiving the definitive CANNIBAL CORPSE record. Adds bassist Alex Webster on the outcome of the record: "We're extremely happy with how Torture turned out. Erik Rutan did an amazing job with the production, and the songwriting and performances may be our strongest yet. We can't wait until our fans get to hear the whole thing!" Witness the gutting sounds of "Demented Aggression," the band's first single, as well as studio footage, at the official CANNIBAL CORPSE landing page, at THIS LOCATION. Torture Track Listing: 01. Demented Aggression 02. Sarcophagic Frenzy 03. Scourge of Iron 04. Encased in Concrete 05. As Deep As the Knife Will Go 06. Intestinal Crank 07. Followed Home Then Killed 08. The Strangulation Chair 09. Caged…Contorted 10. Crucifier Avenged 11. Rabid 12. Torn Through As a precursor to the release, CANNIBAL CORPSE will perform a special one-off show at the Culture Room in West Palm Beach, Florida on January 22nd then head to the seas to take part in this year's edition of the 70,000 Tons Of Metal Cruise. The band will get a short break before a near month-long march through Europe on the Full Of Hate 2012 tour with labelmates Behemoth. Torture will be released in North America on March 13, 2012.

| _______________________________ [Jan 16,2012 12:44pm - Yeti ""] Evisceration Plague was good, but i think i'm all set listening to anything new. "Followed Home Then Killed" is a pretty lame song title. |
| ________________________________ [Jan 16,2012 1:40pm - KEVORD ""] At what point did Cannibal Corpse become Dethklok? Those are the safest most unoffensive song titles in death metal. |

| ________________________________ [Jan 16,2012 2:01pm - Mark_R ""] Wonder if "Torn Through" will be a slow-paced instrumental track |
| ________________________________ [Jan 16,2012 2:07pm - KEVORD ""] As sad as it sounds and I never thought I'd say these words but it might be time for them to do a Chris Barnes reunion. |
| ____________________________________ [Jan 16,2012 2:09pm - arilliusbm ""] Stopped caring about them years ago. |
| _______________________________________ [Jan 16,2012 2:22pm - AndrewBastard ""] who dubbed them reigning kings of DM? |
| ________________________________ [Jan 16,2012 2:31pm - KEVORD ""] Mayhem after Cannibal Corpse crowned them the reigning kings of Black Metal. |

Those are the safest most unoffensive song titles in death metal. ITT: rotten album landslide And album titles... Compare "Torture" and "Kill" to "Eaten Back to Life" and "Tomb of the Mutilated" and the lack of finesse is as clear as a brand new window. |
| _______________________________ [Jan 16,2012 9:47pm - yummy ""] The Bleeding was the only album I liked front to back. |

| _______________________________ [Jan 17,2012 7:39am - timma ""] I mean...it's not the worst thing I've ever heard, but I can't help but feel like it's waaaaaaaay over produced. Also, there is absolutely nothing distinct about that track whatsoever. |
| ___________________________________ [Jan 17,2012 8:00am - demondave ""] I liked it. Maybe its because I have a soft spot for cannibal corpse. It seems pretty good. |
| ___________________________________ [Jan 17,2012 8:12am - Spaldino ""] it is good. they SERRRRRRRRRIOOOOOUUUUUUSSSLYYYYYY need to kick out their drummer and get anyone thats started playing drums in the last 2 years. it would be a huge improvement. they can contact derek roddy, im sure he would love to gig with them... |
| ________________________________ [Jan 17,2012 9:54am - zyklon ""] Best shit they ever put out was the the bleeding. |
| _______________________________ [Jan 17,2012 10:35am - Yeti ""] false. his vocals suck on The Bleeding. |
| _______________________________ [Jan 17,2012 10:36am - ark ""] Derek Roddy would add absolutely nothing to this band. |
| _______________________________ [Jan 17,2012 10:41am - Yeti ""] blah blah blahblahblah blah blah blahblahblah blahblahblahblahblahblahblah you need a new writing style Mr. Corpsegrinder. |
| _______________________________ [Jan 17,2012 10:43am - ark ""] This track is pretty solid. I don't get it spaldino, do you want more fills? Quad speed blasts? Plenty of bands out there that do that. CC has never had flashy drumming, the music just doesn't need it. |
| _______________________________ [Jan 17,2012 10:44am - ark ""] And yeah I think if anything should change about this band it's Corpsegrinder. |
| _______________________________ [Jan 17,2012 10:44am - Yeti ""] it's not bad, it just sounds like an extension of the last 40 albums. |
| _______________________________ [Jan 17,2012 10:46am - Yeti ""] his voice is really starting to go, i'd love to hear how bad the unpolished version sounds. its like Martin Van Drunen, his voice sounds horrendous on Hail of Bullets. these guys have torn their voices apart for decades. |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 17,2012 10:47am - arilliusbm ""] This band died in the 90s. |
| _______________________________ [Jan 17,2012 10:48am - ark ""] Ah yeti I disagree, martin's vocals always do it for me. |
| _____________________________________ [Jan 17,2012 10:52am - arilliusbm ""] Honestly, IMHO, time for CC to hang it up. |
| _______________________________ [Jan 17,2012 10:55am - ark ""] Well yeah. I'd love to see Alex Webster do something else |
| ___________________________________________ [Jan 17,2012 11:17am - largefreakatzero ""] Meh. The Bleeding is the only album I care about with Barnes and Vile is the only one worth listening to with Corpsegrinder. Other than that, this band bores me. |

Heh...if you subtract one "blah" from the last line, this would be EXACTLY a vocal part from the Freak Kitchen song "Speak When Spoken To". I love them. |
