This 3-song demo from Chilean Brutal Slammers, Putrescent, is short and sweet. Walls of fuzzy, thick guitar riffs meet raw, fast, spastic drumming. It is all tied together by Hugo Ojeda's insane vocal prowess. This is only a 5 minute listen and it will severely traumatize your ears. I am still going back and hearing and appreciating different things each time I listen.
My favorite track, "Sodomized" opens with a haunting sample and possibly an exorcism? Followed up by beefy, chugging slams and relentless mid-paced drumming. The standout here, again, are the vocals. Seems to be a layering of Hugo's predators atop his wet nasty gutturals. Just gorgeous.
ALSO; This demo comes 20 years after the band's last, and with only one same member. So normally I'd say that 2005's "Bloodletting" demo is not even relevant, but it is still Putrescent and it is a solid chunk of old school death metal, coming in at 23 minutes! The artwork, song titles, and overall vibe make this one worth checking out, so i'll include it here:
