Expulsion - Wasteworld

More tech shit to scare the "skinny jeans" off your spindly legs.  Expulsion are from the cult favorite of Death Metal countries, the Netherlands, although they sound like they would be from the US or Canada.  To be really brief, this is what Unique Leader bands would sound like if they knew how to write music.  Almost any brutal Death Metal band can claim to be "tight" or "tech" or whatever, but rarely can they produce anything remotely memorable or unique.  Expulsion actually achieves those things, at least in the guitar department anyway.  Not since Dave Mustaine have I heard such biting tone and furiously nimble playing.  Sure, these guys have yet to prove they have the songwriting repetoire of 'Ol Dave, but they show huge promise.  As that comparison would also suggest, the melodic tendencies are also there, which makes for an equally listenable and brutal experience.  If you're a true Death Metal fan, you can appreciate the sophisticated stuff as well as the dirty muddbath stuff, and you're in for some haute musique here.  If you're into mid-era Monstrosity, Quo Vadis, Decrepit Birth and like, you should go crazy for this.
