COFFIN FEEDER's "Big Trouble" is Sven de Caluwé diving headfirst into deathcore with no restraints. The hints were already there in ABORTED’s more recent work, but here, the commitment is absolute. This album is a relentless storm of breakdowns, blast beats, and chugging riffs, stacking layer upon layer of heaviness with a full-force assault. From the very first track, the tone is set, with crushing grooves and an unrelenting pace dominate every second. The drumming is pure chaos, shifting between rapid-fire blasts and bone-crushing slowdowns. Guitars churn out low-end punishment, locking into breakdown after breakdown, each more violent than the last. The aggression is undeniable, and the execution is razor-sharp.
Tracks like "Titan’s Wrath" and "Eviscerate the Living" make it clear that COFFIN FEEDER has studied the deathcore playbook inside out. The formula is there: massive riffs, guttural growls, and breakdowns that hit with the force of a demolition crew. But while the intensity never wavers, the album does run the risk of feeling too locked into repetition. The sheer focus on breakdowns and brute force leaves little room for dynamic shifts, making some moments blur together. De Caluwé's vocals remain as venomous as ever, adding layers of hostility to an already furious mix. Production-wise, "Big Trouble" is modern and polished, ensuring that every chug, slam, and blast lands with absolute weight. It’s built for impact, and on that front, it delivers without compromise.
This album is a relentless battering ram; unforgiving and crushingly heavy. It doesn’t stray from deathcore’s established boundaries, and that might be its biggest flaw. But for those who crave nonstop aggression, breakdown-driven carnage, and precision-cut brutality, "Big Trouble" is exactly that: an album designed to demolish everything in its path.
