Foul Body Autopsy - 21st Century Fascism (Single)

Grindscene Records 2016

1. 21st Century Fascism

One Man death metal killing machine Foul Body Autopsy is back with a new release, albeit a one song single release, which  quite an usual move from an extreme metal band. Clocking in at just over three minutes, Tom produces some extremely well executed death metal. There is a lot more melody to the bands sound nowadays, which isn't a bad thing at all as it makes for an interesting style when mixed with the more brutal passages. The blast beat and dual vocal sections work particularly well and offer that more brutal edge to those that prefer their death metal with a bit of pace. This single bodes very well for a new e.p. or album which knowing Tom's musical output, shouldn't be too long in the making. Shame it's only one track on offer here, but it comes highly recommended nonetheless.
