CoC : Catasexual Urge Motivation - The Encyclopedia of Serial Killers : Review

Catasexual Urge Motivation - _The Encyclopedia of Serial Killers_
(Deliria Prod., 1996)
by: Adam Wasylyk (4 out of 10)

Japanese gore/grind band Catasexual Urge Motivation (initials are C.U.M, get it?) have released an album's worth (22 songs clocking in at around an hour) of boring, sloppy music with bad production and leaves the listener bored out of their wits! The lyrics deal with the band's interest in serial killers and mass murder as well as torture, cannibalism, mutilation, and sadism. Songs like "Supraliminal Psychosadistic Motivation", "Philosophical Diary of a Habitual Murderer", "Multiple Parasexuality Disorder", "Declaration of a Serial Killer... Mental Terrorism" and "Campaign to Legalize Murder" prove just this. The music is grinding death with bad production leaving the guitars sounding like mud. The vocals sound like a mix between Suffocation, Demilich and perhaps early Carcass. There are no fresh or new ideas being injected into the music, it's very straight-forward (and very boring). Buy Blood Duster instead.
