Mangled Torsos - Drawings Of The Dead
Review by Jelle Wierdsma
Mangled Torsos' album, Drawings Of The Dead, is a must-listen for fans of death metal. The band delivers a heavy and aggressive sound that is sure to get heads banging. The album features 11 tracks, each with its own unique style and sound. The guitar riffs are intense and the drumming is powerful, creating a dark and ominous atmosphere that perfectly complements the lyrics. The vocals are guttural and raw, adding to the overall intensity of the album. The production is top-notch, with every instrument and element of the music coming through clearly. Drawings Of The Dead is a solid album that will satisfy fans of death metal and leave them wanting more.

Comments
German band Mangled Torsos recorded two albums, 1994's Drawings of the Dead and 1995's Godless, before disbanding. The band was essentially a B-tuned Death/Doom Metal outfit in the vein of early Paradise Lost, Cathedral and Autopsy. The band's debut album is then unoriginal, un-memorable and fairly banal, too much to be recommended to first-time listeners.
Aaaaah la verrrrga.

18:16 the beginning of 'Deranged Body Love' is one the best riffs in the history of 90s death-doom...such a catchy and well-written intro (should've been the 2nd track on the album in my opinion). Also got to mention the absolutely beautiful album cover...what a perfect shadecof blue.
*-I Don't Understand How Such A Raw, Technical And Bestial Band As For European Metal Are So Unknown, Hold On Germany*
Sick as fuccc
12:46 that melody is so fkin out of key lol
BRUTALLLLLLL............

That accoustic part on 11:20 sucked terribly.
The rest of the album is ok. Not so much, but ok.
Yea, it's ok. Maybe a little boring, but still ok. Nah, it's boring and lame.
