Fetish Necrozis Germofroditus [2012] New Year’s Terror



After really digging Anal Grind’s new album I downloaded this one as well hoping to strike big with another lesser known act. Hoping it was good I eagerly downloaded it, unzipped it and played it the second I could. It’s a shame it only took that first track to kill my gore winning streak. Little is posted about Fetish Necrozis Germofroditus, who are a few years late on the joke MySpace goregrind project era where bad production and overly fake drum programming was acceptable, but what I do know is that the outfit is based out of Russia, and is most likely the work of one singular individual, or atleast I hope so. Similar in effort as Brutal Nekkro Sex, Spermswamp, Bitch Infection and SMES, Fetish Necrozis Germofroditus ignore all standard musical requirements and simply lay down an indecipherable layer of noise and throw pitchshifted vocals over it with very little effort or originality.

Complaints? Where to even begin. The entire album is one muddy mess, and not like early Last Days of Humanity, more like every instrument and sound on this album was coming out of the same singular blown out bass speaker onto the cd. The guitar is utterly intangible. the drums are obviously programmed and aside from being insanely repetitive, they just do not fit the music and are awkwardly sequenced with the rest of the song. The vocals are just as bad as the guitar, for yes there is a pitchshifter at work but it is so low and distorted in the mix that whatever power it did have at the time of recording is now lost and drowned out by awful drum programming and blown out guitarwork. There is also an odd feeling to this album where it feels like the entire album has a subtle phaser at work, and that the music shifts from left to right at a barely listenable pace but over time it just creates chaos in the equilibrium and makes the album just that much more unpleasant. Now I get this was probably made by some guy in his bedroom but god damn, standards are standards, and this release is complete garbage that is not worth the discount CD-R’s it is printed on. Oh and good job stealing the album art from fucking google, if you’re going to lift images at least edit them a LITTLE. Ya hack.

SHIT RATING: BAD
