Very Baddass & Raw Release

F. O. Alduaini | 09/30/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Very morbid and raw album from Xasthur. This stuff is so sick it's gonna dismantle ya head. The production is very ominous and creepy, and the tempo of the songs is a lot faster than the tempo of the songs in his other releases. Malefic incorporated the use of a cello and real drums to produce this morbid album. The cello blends in real well, with the keyboards and guitars, as a background instrument. Unlike his other albums songs, each song on this album is totally unpredictable. If you want to travel in a beautiful, dark galaxy full of ominous and wondrous planets but don't have the money to pay for such a trip, then order "Defective Epitaph" and enjoy the macabre journey.

Different is not bad, people...

Trystero | Fredericktown, MO | 10/28/2007

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I know some people are disappointed by this album and the departure Malefic has made from the sound of "Subliminal Genocide." However, all the basic elements of the Xasthur sound are still here, augmented by live drums (finally!) and sawtoothed guitars that are even more raw here than on previous Xasthur releases. In general, I don't know why people are so surprised by this. Malefic promised a new sound in interviews leading up to the release of "Defective Epitaph," and I really don't know what else they were expecting. Overall, I find this a very good, solid album, perhaps not as good as "Subliminal Genocide" or "Nocturnal Poisoning," but then again, what is? Very few people can effectively compose such wonderful music in such a short time."
