ATROCITY
"Contaminated" (Open Grave; 2007)
Reviewed by Mike SOS
Atrocity's latest release is far from being a new recording, as this 10-track offering is merely an album full of alternate versions of previously released material -- which is why it sounds so raw, visceral, and balls-out heavy.
Unfettered by today's pristine methods, tracks like "Unseen Death" thrash about without the slick polish, making for a tasty crossover treat that sounds like Sepultura, DRI, and Napalm Death in a triple threat cage match.

Rating Guide:
A classic. This record will kick your ass.
Killer. Not a classic but it will rock your world.
So-so. You've heard better.
Pretty bad. Might make a nice coaster.
Self explanatory. Just the sight of the cover makes you wanna hurl.
