Review by Daniel for Defeated Sanity - Chapters of Repugnance (2010)

Some very brutal death metal on display here & it certainly has its moments however Defeated Sanity have pretty much ripped their sound directly from Suffocation's "Effigy Of The Forgotten". They sound exactly the same as Suffocation for the most part but go way overboard with the technicality thing which doesn't give the listener much of a chance to really dig their teeth into any of the chunky riffs on display. The unintelligible vocals sound exactly like Frank Mullen (Suffocation) too. The jazzier drumming & bass parts sound pretty ridiculous with the gutteral vocals. Am I the only one who thinks that the modern brutal death metal bands are going overboard with the blast beats? I think that once blast beats pass a certain speed they sound like a parody of themselves & lose all their intensity. Worth a listen but very overrated.
