Been really loving Benighted's Identisick album. They're stone cold brutal death metal, but with a lot of simpler grooves and breakdowns that many tech/brutal death metal bands would ignore in their quest to outwank the competition. But the brutality and grindcore madness is just as, if not even more potent since Benighted are more dedicated to immediacy than a group like Hour of Penance or Necrophagist. Kind of feel like an even better and more DM version of Leng Tch'E, or Dying Fetus if their more thuggish moments were a bit Pantera.

Probably the most fun brutal death metal band I've yet discovered and I think I'm gonna go avail myself of the rest of their discography.

Old post, but I've been digging their second album after Mondo introduced me to it. Great atmosphere, totally dense, and anything DM album that mixes in doom gets extra point from me.
