The Severed Inception
Inevitable End

May 6, 2009
These guys came out of nowhere striking like thunder and I can say that I was surprised to see this quartet sounding like a slaughterhouse. Relapse is lately investing more on other sounds and less on brutal as fuck bands (at least less than what it did in the past). If you expect experimental Hardcore or Metal sounds, then this band is not even close to what you are searching for.
The Swedish act has been around since 2003 and has only released two demos. It seems that Relapse's scouting department quickly noticed their talent and kidnapped them before any other label does. Their debut album The Severed Inception is already out there, waiting for every extreme metalhead to go and buy it!
As I said earlier, their music is not experimental or anything close to it. It is just straight in your face Death/Grind music full of brutality, hyper-technical breaks and tempo that could easily break your neck. Do not even try to headbang at this speed! The only experimental thing someone can find in this album are the few epic passages the band has placed here and there, something that makes the whole album sound more diverse, as well as manages to make the approximately 34 minutes of this album sound not enough to satisfy the listener's sick & twisted hunger (that's why you will press the repeat button several times).
The heavy as fuck production, the clever compositions and the whole ORIGIN meets DECAPITATED vibe is enough to tempt every Death/Grind maniac. You should check these guys out and see that Sweden is not only about melodic Death Metal. The brutality still remains there!
