Exhumed: Red Asphalt

Exhumed’s latest blood-soaked full length offering is titled Red Asphalt.

An album such as this doesn’t need an overly wordy review, so I’ll keep this short. Red Asphalt is a highly enjoyable death/grind album in the vein of Carcass. In fact I hear shades of the early era Carcass style, all the way through to their more melodic approach taken in more recent times. Red Asphalt is 10 tracks long and I dig them all. Each track is heavy, riffy and importantly very enjoyable. The band’s leader Matt Harvey is a bit of a workhorse, playing with the Death influenced act ‘Gruesome’ (who released an album just last year), and touring regularly with these bands as well as his Death tribute act ‘Left to Die’. I’m a fan of everything he does, so it’s not surprising that I really enjoy Red Asphalt too.

If heavy, brutal music that grooves is of interest to you look no further than Red Asphalt. Whilst not one of the most complicated albums I’ve heard this year, its very much one of the most enjoyable.
