This song feels like the ultimate stereotype of 90s death metal. The vocals are so cookie monster that you can't help but laugh, and the music is totally generic for American DM of its time. But it all works to such a degree that no matter how cliched it might be, "Hammer Smashed Face" is still brutal as all ****, and Cannibal Corpse have a personality that transcends their musical limitations.

Of course, The Bleeding would be even more of a 90s DM stereotype, but that album was so catchy that who gives a flying ****?

This certainly isn't the best version of the "Slayer-meets-Madball" version of meatheaded metalcore out there (see Arkangel, Stampin' Ground, and Merauder for that), but it is evidence that even the 2nd-tier bands are worth your time. This kind of low-rent metalcore feels like the real thrash revival, at least in spirit: meat and potatoes metal with more brawn than brains, but also a fair amount of heart. It's also proof that there are bands out there that can do this kind of thing without being as embarrassing as Hatebreed (though I do like me some Hatebreed when the mood strikes). I would gladly bump this when I'd tired of playing Carved from Empty Words or Dead Man Walking one too many times.

I always thought that these guys were pretty lame until I threw it on this morning for the first time in a while. I don't like their melodic singing still, but it's way way better than I remembered it.

Metal album of the year maybe.

Heaviest thrash band of all time? Quite possibly.
