Balatonizer is a grindcore/deathmetalband from Palermo, Italy and was
formed in 1997. In the beginning the band played pure grindcore but
during the years, they also mixed it with a lot of deathmetal elements.
This is the bands first full length album and it contains 32(!) songs
and 1 videoclip (for the song 'Muscular Prevarication'). The band name
bands like; Cannibal Corpse, Brutal Truth, Napalm Death, Vomitory, etc,
as their main influences. This album contains a mix of
grindcore/deathmetal that does not sound original but is performed very
well. This is not really my kind of music and does also not belong to
my target group but for the variation it is always funny to review this
kind of bands. The band doesnt have any songtexts (like Obituary on
their debut 'Slowly we Rot") but " the only semblance of message that
we want to transmit is totally expressed in the wonderfull comic
artwork, drawned by drummer Marco" according to their biography. Well,
i have to admit; The artwork is faboulous!! Compliments! This album has
a running time of nearly 30 minutes (not bad for 32 songs…). If you're
into grindcore with the already mentioned deathmetal parts, just check
this band out.
