Tracing their origins all
the way back to 1993,
this is finally the first
full-length release
of Osculum Obscenum, and
what a sick grinding
piece of art it is.
Fully
reveling in blasphemy,
sodomy, lust, humilation,
perversion, and filthy
sadism, this sick trio break
out all the leather
whips, needles, razor blades,
latex strap-ons,
zipper masks, and bondage rope
for a truely
punishing experience. A really
sick and depraved atmosphere
is what the album gives off,
with all
of its sadist concepts,
satanic lyrics, and pure,
straightforward grindcore.The merging of both
satanic and sadomasochistic lyrics
with grind is
something that is really rare
these days, and the
honest, purely sick feeling the
band convey is just depraved and
unnerving enough to really question
their motives. This album brings to
mind the great
feeling of the early days of
Sarcofago, Impaled
Nazerene and Beherit, although
not as noisy and
primative sounding in execution.
The closest
similarity to aesthetic philosophy
and theme is really a mix of their
contemporaries Cock and Ball Torture,
Impaled Nazerene, and Tsatthoggua--
grind, black, and nihilistic
perversion all rolled into one
flaming shower of
piss. The awesome artwork and
packaging design, done by Sasha
Pahlke of Cock and Ball Torture,
compliments the music well, but its
not nearly as explicit as I'd like
it to be. If this album had been
released five or seven years ago,
it would probably be considered
a classic, cult release, but
right now it stands alone as a brilliant,
musical pleasure of the flesh.
