Now available on CD in a full-color slipcase, and with all of the insane artwork from the LP included.
The dope-fueled death metal concept known as Cannibis Corpse has returned with their second album Tube Of The Resinated, the followup to 2006's Blunted AT Birth. Haters might call this a one-joke band that otherwise regurgitates standard old-guard death metal, but I say "fuck 'em", 'cuz Cannibis Corpse's stalwart dedication to their concept is matched only by the utter brutality of their Morrisound-worshipping DM that flays the meat from my grill every time I slap this monster on ol' Emerson. Neither Bongzilla nor Cypress Hill have a narrative like this running throughout their music - Tube gets it going from the awesome old-school painted album cover from Andrei Bouzikov that depicts a trio of wailing dopewitches worshipping a gut-filled hellbong seated on a throne of bird skulls and human femurs, then proceed to blow my mind with the enormous poster insert that folds out to show a cartoon-style post-apocalyptic wasteland filled with roving waterbong/dinosaur hybrids, armies of sentient marijuana buds waging brutal war on the last of the human survivors while their gigantic, Lovecraftian cheeba-overlords oversee the gore-drenched destruction while they rip tubes out of decapitated human heads and chow down on bags of "Taco Hole". Are you getting a feel for how awesome this is yet? Well, then check out the poetry behind the first cut "Chronolith": "Stoned, as stoned as the builders of this bud-bastion must have been / High, so high, so high, high above the summit circled calmly be green clouds / Smoke, the smoke is drawn forth from the buds of inner earth / Deep, deep beneath the core burn their coals, primordial nugs". The dopeworship continues with "Mummified In Bong Water", "Disposal Of The Baggy", "Sentenced To Burn One", and "Addicted To Hash In A Tin". So of course there is the Cannibal Corpse worship as well, and these cats deliver the old school Cannibal Corpse/Tampa death metal style in grand form , no techy shit, no crazy time signatures or off-the-wall complexity, just straight up, crushing, song-based death metal that is catchy as fuck with stomping slow parts, tons of blasting, battering blasts of double bass kicks and sicko shredding all over the place. Awesome! Oh yeah, and the band features members of Parasytic, Battlemaster and Municipal Waste, if that gets yer Reeboks in a clot.
