Metal maniacs, rejoice! I am proud to present to you: WHORESNATION; signed via Throatruiner Records, hailing from French grounds - performing Grindcore, on their sophomore album entitled: "Mephitism" (released April 12th, 2018).

Since formation in 2009; the trio in question have 2 Demos, 5 Splits; 2 EPs, 1 Compilation and 2 Full-Length Albums in their discography so far - I am introducted to their 2nd album entitled: "Mephitism". 20 tracks ranging at around 20:02; WHORESNATION arrange an intricately designed formula of heavy-hitting Grindcore developments. The titular track starts off the record, (bearing in mind these songs are just over or at least under a minute's each) with a blistering barraged frenzy of rhythmic static, setting the pace for the rest of the record. Annihilating eardrums into a crunchy aesthetic of uniquely versatile vehemence, feedback and distortion. "Carcan" brutalizes souls with quick riff picking; unleashing ruthless pandemonium, blast-beating havoc and aggressively hostile lacerations kicked up several notches that momentously displays amplified adrenaline & boistrously bounchy gnarliness - especially in "Expiration We Rot". Forging a calamity of triggering twists that grind into a hybrid dimension of wrecking ball chaos, chugging haste and galloping frolicking create a borderline foundation of punchy jumpiness that will pump you up for a killer juxtapostion of moving speeds that rivet with thrashing rage.

Consisting of Pibe on vocals; the frontman excels with rawly rough pipes, raspy lungs that meticulously yell with throaty snarls and blood-curdling barks. "Dasein" dominates with roaring surges of piledriving trailblazing, while speedily showcasing thunderously monstrous meatiness & skyrocketing substance. "Malfunction" organically throttling with relentlessly stampeding stability, while rumbling with rapidly swift nimbleness & sonically seamless shredding from guitarist Lopin. "Pilon" slays with neckbreaking malevolence; while "Formentations" dashes into a consistently complex dynamic, intensely establishing immense dexterity and fluidly gnarly energy. "Oozing Media" injects infectiously-driven audibility, as battering drummer Tonio hammers with rambunctious pummelling who pounds the mettle with steely precision.

"Who's To Blame, What's To Blame?" expects to make you thrash chairs over other chairs! While "Inner Void" continues a trend while quaking with sheer savagery, implementing hardened hymns that rock with razor-sharp synergies. "Circle 9" statics the sound production with weighty perseverence and addictive but groundbreaking firepower fuelled expertise. "Gueules Cassées" elements towering persistency, pulsating thumpy trials of tribal solidities slabbed with volatile pursuits. "In The Limbs Of Evil" executes an evil empowering shroud of mandatory quirkiness, portraying snappy virtuosity & quintessential grit. "Endless Discussion Toward Meaningless Consensus" (I love this title because of how accurately true it is.) embellishes experimental techniques of potently vibrant viciousness, smothered with scattering catchiness.

"Apoplexy" shatters windows with sinisterly destructive breakdowns, leading into a primitively systematic punishment of unbribled tightness. "Chien dedans, chat dehors" examines fluidly polished panache with outrè proficiencies, while "Raw Rabid Brutality" emphasizes its title with bulldozing efficiency. "Mary Typoïde de la pensée" articulates brusing chunkiness that venomously revolves around an oscilliating tornado of velocity & ripping soars that surge with potentially talented potential. The penultimate track: "RU486" prodegiously overarchs upbeat bangers, while the overall concluding finisher: "Starving Campaigns" epicly ends the record as it did begin. "Mephitism" harnesses remarkable replay value, while remaining profusely robust & incredibly deathly - a fine collection of wrecking tones that will vent out some steam for sure.

Bottom line; I discovered a certainly fantastic band who most definitely outdone themselves here, it's short but slick & sweet. WHORESNATION earned a new fan and delivered a heart-pumping pack of tunes that will have you raging in no time flat, a grandiose motivator that will have your head banging furiously. Do check it out!
