This CD is unofficially a self-release, as Goulash records has

the same address as the band I suppose it’s Tim the drummer who

keeps the duties, a label which should also release stuff by the

bands BULLDOZER (?), MUTILATION HORROR and SANDOKHAN (?). ANDROPHAGOUS

is a rotting, dirty Gore/Death Metal band, with short, 1 minute

in average, songs. The vocals are shifted somewhat to add a nauseating

gore/grind body, although while the riffs are simple and the drumming

ok (though not lighning fast), the band is substantially death

metal, and I have to be honest, of no finest quality. The riffs

are a bit repetitive and banal, while thanksfully not overcharged

with stop and goes which are so popular in Italy, it doesn’t really

convince me overly. Even giving the disc a second spin, my impression

has’t changed, that of some anonymity even if there are interesting

parts here and there. If you happen on this disc at a reasonable

price, get it, otherwise you can live without.
