The new one is called “From WIsdom To Baked” (Gorguts – From Wisdom To Hate) starting with “Baptized In Bud” (Death – Baptized In Blood) a Death metal track in the vein of Suffocation and Cannibal Corpse, showing that musicwise they don’t fuck around, they are a rather solid act! “Zero Weed Tolerance” (Death – Zero Tolerance) comes up next to keep up the speed of the record and some trademark Death metal soloing reminiscent of Massacre. Followed by “Weedless Ones” (Vader – Crucified Ones/Morbid Angel – Ancient Ones) showing some Morbid Angel influence in their playing, being mostly a midtempo track. “Individual Pot Patterns” (Death – Individual Thought Patterns) brings back the speed to the album with ripping riffage, in the vein of the ever-present Cannibal Corpse. “Pull The Carb” (Death – Pull The Plug) shows some Deicide influence as well. What we haven’t noticed just yet is the really good vocal performance of Land Phil, showing a guy who definitely knows his Death metal.

“Considered Dank” (Gorguts – Considered Dead) rips fast through our ears then goes into a break reminding me of “Individual Thought Patterns“-era followed by a staccato part with great soloing. “Voice Of The Bowl” (Death – Voice Of The Soul) starts in a brutal Death way, breaking into a nice headbanging section in the middle then back to the original tempo. “THC Crystal Mountain” (Death – Crystal Mountain) starts off in an eerie and more atmospheric way, going into an old school Death metal madness. “With The Hash He Will Create” (Gorguts – With Their Flesh, He’ll Create) kicks in with a massive Death metal riff then into midtempo riffage and generally balancing between blasts and groovy riffage. Up next comes the title track with a tremolo picked riff lots of headbanging midtempo/Thrashy riffage for our listening pleasure, going into a melodic passage towards the end. A medical intro leads us to “Medicinal Healing” (Death – Spiritual Healing) a fast ripping track to end the record in style.

These guys are having great moments of laughter with marijuana while making really good music. Great production, solid guitar work and rather exceptional guests like Chris Barnes of Six Feet Under (and ex-Cannibal Corpse frontman). Well done guys and be careful with those buds!
