Ossuary
- Addicted To Human Flesh
Colombia
Awakening
Records
“Addicted
To Human Flesh” is the third machete strike to the forehead of
posers from these Colombian maniacs. The new album is an immense work
full of odes to violence, paired with their sick passion for
old-school death metal.

Colombia is a country with an excellent reputation when it comes to producing good metal; therefore I can only recommend checking out as much as you can from that country. This work, in my humble opinion, will be one of the best albums of 2021. The overall sound is a real meat grinder. It is required to crank the volume up as loud as possible and allow your brains to be crushed and thrown in a cauldron that contains the remains of all those who had listened to the deranged sounds as they became victims of the massacre. It holds you on a hook – tearing your flesh – from beginning to end. I wish I could see them live because the great sound of the bass and drums work so well together and will repeatedly hit my chest until my ribs and organs are exposed.
The purulent and visceral vocals perfectly capture the band's dark thoughts with relevant themes pertaining to death, horror and perversion. The cover is a true reflection of that. The guitars sound utterly disgusting, and even though there aren’t many solos, the few that appear are executed with great skill. I would also like to add that the bombardment of riffs are endless, as they direct the assault in a way that you cannot possibly find tedious. Not a single second of rest is permitted to the listener with the savage and incessant vomit.
Bands such as Ossuary only fuel my desire to attend a show once and for all and violently break my skull in a mosh. I personally think that labels like Awakening Records are releasing some truly great material; therefore one has to be attentive to the signings of that label. In this case, they did not make a mistake at all. I fully recommend these sick practitioners of the grotesque! DEATH METAL! (Catacombs Walker)
