THE LATEST FROM THE MASTER OF MODERN PATHOLOGICAL GOREGRIND. FEATURING 4 TRACKS OF PURE UNADULTERATED CARCASS-WORSHIP. THE PROPER FOLLOW-UP TO "NECROTICISM" THAT NEVER WAS.
"As often as ‘Symphonies of Sickness‘ inspired goregrind has been celebrated over the last thirty years, be it direct worship/tribute or expansion upon key traits expressed, there is yet seemingly endless headspace for bands who manage to get it right, the template remains far too thrilling to ignore. Over the last several years Ukraine borne and Tokyo, Japan-based musician K. Stefanskyi, under the Pharmacist name, has approached this sound from a scholarly, surgically precise level of attentiveness with an innate understanding of not only what made that particular Carcass album so special back in the late 80’s but also the lineage of bands who’d picked up that sound and modulated it themselves. In this sense we are getting the distilled idealism of passionate fandom and the professional skill of a young craftsman’s tunnel vision for style and sound. That said, the wise hand of an artist who knows their shit isn’t going to be the reason you buy ‘Carnal Pollution‘, this latest EP from the duo sells itself with blazing fast sprays of riff and slippery groove front-to-back, managing some intense and unexpectedly catchy moments as it grinds in."
