So, how does Cephalic Carnage sound without Jawsh Mullen? The band was already limping when they released Xenosapien, mainly because they got bored of being awesome and decided to be boring instead. Sure, they polished their sound, and finally you had some spastic solos and heightened execution in a Grindcore album, but was that really necessary?

Cephalic Carnage is the kind of trip you can't make sober. You'll laugh. You'll cry. You'll whoe. You'll whoa. You'll dance the night away in trance... only to wake up in a dumpster five hours later.
God, I ♥ progressive disco.

Most disappointing album of the year for me, so far
lol @ clean vocals
also, Raped by an Orb sounds exactly like Summoning Redemption by Morbid Angel

Definitely. Bad cleans, boredom and don't forget the awfully short of 12 minutes monster boredom track "Repangaea".

Repangaea boring?? I beg your pardon! Sure, it's not what you'd expect from Cephalic Carnage, but rather what you'd expect from the lovechild of Cephalic Carnage, The Ocean and Yakuza. Which makes it a fucken masterpiece in my book!
Great album and certainly not what I had expected after Xenosapien. Positively speaking.

This is exactly what I thought reading that post , the song is great and the album is my current favorite Death Metal release of 2010

Can't say anything against them .. better than xenosapien in my opinion. but i agree the disapointements, they are different this is what they told me when i smoked some joints with them before the release came .. so i had my idea before it came that this would not be a totally grindcore release

I would've liked this album if it wasn't for some of the songs, that just dragged and had nothing to really headbang to. I feel it was randomly made and not exactly a "Cephalic Carnage" record. I miss the "Anomalies" and "Lucid Interval" which were both fantastic albums I must praise! \m/ This album though..I agree with everyone was pretty much boring.

I suppose I should be used to Cephalic Carnage's albums being disjointed in structure (the fact that a few shorter songs influenced by Grindcore are followed up with experimental, longer songs featuring laidback jazzy solos), but this doesn't bother me at all. This latest album seems to be amongst the lowest rated by the band on MS, and I don't know why. It is the fourth album I've listened to by the band, and whilst I don't consider it their best, I certainly consider at a must have for any fan of Experimental death Metal/grindcore. Admittedly, when the vocals are actually attempting to sing, it can get a bit frustrating with the brutality of the guitar work and drums, but tense anthems such as the very mad indeed 'Ohrwurm' prove otherwise.
