CoC : Hypocrisy - Carved Up : Review

Hypocrisy - _Carved Up_
(Relapse Records, 1995)
by: Adam Wasylyk (4 out of 10)

This 7-inch contains two tracks, the first being the title track off their latest album, _Abducted_, and "Beginning of the End", a previously unreleased demo track. It's exactly what you would expect from Hypocrisy, from its mid to slower-paced drumming to its heavy riffing. Neither of the two tracks really stood out. It didn't excite nor interest me in the slightest. The most interesting thing about this release was its gory cover art, which isn't a good sign when the art is better than the music itself. Another thing that bugged me was the lack of lyrics, which really bothers me as I like to know what the guy is singing about. There isn't too much else to say about this, other than I recommend it SOLELY for true Hypocrisy fans.
