Fosse Septique – Septicity – Tape

Cassette tape version of this gurgling, gory piece of Grindcore/Death Metal.

You can really hear that this relatively new band is captained by an experienced frontman. With an audible fondness for bands such as Last Days Of Humanity, Dead Infection and early Regurgitate, Fosse Septique’s thunderous noise is both infectious and delightfully familiar. No effort whatsoever is made to bring a fresh sound to the genre; instead, this takes the listener back to the latter half of the 1990s: a time dominated by small labels such as Malodorous Mangled Innards (MMI), Bizarre Leprous Productions, Obscene Productions, Regurgitated Semen Records, Poserslaughter Records, Obliteration Records, Ax/ction Records and countless others. I’m guessing that many older readers probably still have a good collection of those good old 7″ singles and demo tapes lying around in the loft. Listening to ‘Septicity’ comes pretty close to evoking that sort of nostalgic mood.
