Gorelust are a band from Canada that plays a very old school and brutal form of gore/death metal and this is a review of their album "We Are the Undead" which will be released in 2015 by PRC Music.
Horror movie samples start off the album before adding in heavy guitars, drums and growls and after the intro those 3 instruments take over and the music starts going for more of a brutal 90's death metal sound along with some blast beats and they also bring in a good mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts as well as adding high pitched screams in certain sections of the recording.
At times the band adds evil sounding melodies in with the brutal death metal sound as well as adding in solos and leads that bring back the Florida style death metal sound of 91 and all of the musical instruments do they part to add to the brutality of the songs and as the album progresses you can hear some grindcore elements and the early 90's take on slam death metal being added into the songs at times while one of the alter tracks also brings back the horror movie samples of the intro before making a return back to a brutal sound.
Gorelust goes back to the 90's and brings back the brutal gore/death metal sound of that era as well as showing a different side to old school death metal than some of the bands have seemed to forgotten about, the production sounds very old school yet very professional at the same time while the lyrics cover violence, gore, and anti christian themes.
In my opinion Gorelust are a very great sounding old school, brutal gore/death metal band and if you are a fan of this musical genre, you should check out this album. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Rape The Rapist" "We Are The Undead" "City of the Cannibals" and "Wretched Life". 8 out of 10.
