Menno: So the Brazil-based death/grind trio Anmod is supposed to be the new flagship for our very own underground label Deity Down Records from Breda-city. The debut of these gentlemen is entitled ‘Monstrosity per Defectum’ and was written and recorded after the break-up of the somewhat infamous underground group Fornication. Anmod puts its money where its mouth is and delivers a rather ruthless piece of death/grind. The drummer gets a fresh battery-suppository, switches ‘on’ and fills about half an hour with blastbeats. The rest of the music can be called equally primitive; a lack of surprising guitarriffs (no solo’s) and Hernan Olivieras monotonous barking of not-so-literate lyrics make this effort a mediocre one.
I can’t deny the overall brutality this record, especially when the drummer ‘goes grindcore’, but I don’t see any reason to consider Anmod to be the new revelation from Brazil.
