ACCEPT DEATH  self-titled (BLACK VINYL)  LP   (Hydro-Phonic)   18.98
self-titled (BLACK VINYL) IS CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE FOR ORDER

Released in an extremely limited run of one hundred and fifty copies, the vinyl version of the debut album from these Ohio deathsludge thugs is presented in a nice minimal jacket that has the AD logo foil stamped in metallic silver on the cover, and is pressed on black vinyl.

Here's our review of the original cd release on Retribute: Hugely nasty and barbaric death sludge from former members of Hemdale, Clevo straightedge thugs Die Hard, and Fistula, from one of the few areas of the country that seems to be capable of consistently birthing this sort of high-caliber lava metal. Forming in 2005 from the void left by the almighty Fistula (prior to their reformation soon thereafter), Accept Death more or less of picks up where Fistula left off, taking the monstrously downtuned, sludgy hate punk of the excellent Idiopathic album and their phlegm spewing split disc with BURMESE and slowing the music down even more, and adding even more noxious vocals on exquisitely stoopid/negatively titled jams like "Punish The Retarded", "Kill Everyone", and "Skinning The Face For Relief". This self titled debut album sounds like Eyehategod gone mentally unstable death metal, retardedly slow and diseased Frost riffs obscuring deceptively catchy hooks underneath the boils and scar tissue while axeman Scott Stearns voms majorly corroded and damaged acid-guitar and squealing feedback over sudden blasts of gnarly ultraheavy thrash. Former HEMDALE singer Matt Rositano's schizo vocals do a constant switch between fucking unhinged mental patient rants and some ridiculously gruff death grunts, and sometimes emits effective moaning chants, like on "A Slow Funeral For A Lifetime Of Suffering". Makita from Lockweld / Apartment 213 lends some additional fucked up vocal damage to "Wallowing In Filth". Awesomely acrid power death sludge hatred that intersects the goo of Iron Monkey, Coffins, Eyehategod, Noosebomb, Fistula, etc., with face flattening, primitive Obituary/Celtic Frost style death-crush.
