It gonna be global warming treacherous crap on the Earth!! Something like that. Gonna be heavy as grindcore as fuck as Brutal Death Metal!!

I've just finished listening to "Torture" in full for the third time, and Alex Webster's assertion that every song on the album would be individual and easy to tell apart from each other has for the most part at least, been proven to be true. "Sarcophagic Frenzy" sounds different to anything the band have done before, with it's undercurrent of melodic qualities. I really love the savage mid-song breakdown which flows seamlessly into a harmonized melodic solo. Elsewhere, there's the morbidly catchy "As Deep As The Knife Will Go", the bizarre rhythmic qualities of "The Strangulation Chair", complete with some stunning bass work by Alex, and the creepy as hell "Followed Home Then Killed", which features a very dark melodic intro, which again, is not standard CC fare.

Overall, this one is a vast improvement over their disappointing last album, and might even be better than the modern classic "KILL", although it's too early for me to make that assertion yet. Definitely one of their best ever albums though!

Another boring album...

Their best in years ,, way better than Evisceration Plague

Another Great Masterpiece....:thumbup:

Another masterpiece? I didn't even know they had one. :/

In just two days, I've already listened to "Torture" way more than the previous album, which just about says it all about how I'd compare the two albums. Listening to it on headphones yesterday only increased my positive feelings towards it, as it highlighted the subtle differences between each song all the more. You can definitely tell that the band have tried hard this time to make every song unique, and keep things fresh without straying very far from their signature style, which is a very difficult thing to do, but I think they have largely succeeded in what they set out to do with "Torture". It's still undeniably Cannibal Corpse, but there's little bits and pieces in certain songs that made my ears prick up a bit in surprise.

Great album!

Come on man, everyone knows Evisceration Plague was the ultimate pinnacle of old school death metal!

Of course, how could I forget. I don't even know why other bands are even releasing new material, since they'll never surpass the glory that is Evisceration Plague.

The rating this album is so fucking high! When i finally get the album i'll see if it really is worth an average 8.9...

It's inflated right now because the only people who voted thus far are fans.

Just wait until the rest of the site catches wind of it at the top of the charts. It'll probably end up anywhere between 7.9 and 8.3.

This album is just more Cannibal Corpse, If your a fan chances are you will like it but to me this is nowhere near as good as the latest Asphyx album.

8.9 ?? really? i'll just wait to see what happens to that score...

I have yet to listen to either album but I can still confidently assume the same.

Really solid CC release, however, i think i might have enjoyed their previous two records more, i'll have to give it a few more spins to decide that though

Cannibal Corpse doesn't even deserve to be in the same sentence with Asphyx tbh.

True.

Meh, I already listened to the Bleeding.

I really like the album like kill or evisceration plague... i like the type of bands that never change their sound even a little bit

The Hammer Smashed Face EP.

Haha those CC haters are pathetic. Great album and great, powerful classic band.

Awesome brutally album.. strong tunes some new ideas some think like evisceration plague album .
I like it alot \../:banger2:

My rating is biased simply because I love Cannibal Corpse!!! I've loved them ever since a high-school girlfriend bought me Hammered Smashed Face on tape...
Torture sounds a lot like other of their albums which is not necessarily a bad thing. I love the fact that they remain true to their convictions and keep delivering bone-crushing Death Metal !!!!!!!!

Well this is something!, after so many years sounding Death-metal it still remains with hes valuable brutal tones!, I definitely admire this album and hope many others will feel the same!...;)

The Hammer Smashed Face EP.

That's more of a cult classic than anything, really.

Yes, to be honest i wasn't convinced that it would stay so high. I know CC has its fair share of haters and devotees on here...

more devotees than haters. Actually. I think I am the only true CC hater here, who hates everything they have done and find them incredibly boring both on album and live. It's with reason I call them Cannibal Snore. Imo they are the single most overrated death metal band around.
