Sound: This technical brutal death metal band from Germany has unique sounding in their riffs. Most death metal I know bands play really brutal crunchy and intense riffing which I like. But Necrophagist has orginality of most Death Metal bands. The riffs are fast diminished and the solos include very intense shredding solos of alternate/speed picking, legato licks, deminished lick, sweep picking or arpeggios, and two hand tapping. Necrophagist first plays a sick riff then jumps into a very sick lick which makes it sound very interesting. // 10

Lyrics and Singing: The lyrics are good and it's very interesting to look at, and Muhammad Suicmez is sick, because He can do a very low death growl, and he do it when he is shredding. I mean how talented is that, that's like wicked hard to do and he can do it without breaking a sweat and it's even more interesting to watch him live and stuff. // 10

Impression: Necrophagist is like Yngwie Malmsteen in death metal style because some of the riffs in the songs reminds of Yngwie Malmsteen and I'm assumming that Necrophagist followed him. If you like Death Metal, this is the album that everyone should get. I would never ever lose this album because album is so good that you can't get enough. // 10

Sound: Onset of Putrefaction is a fantastic example of modern technical death metal. The riffs are never repetetive and the quality of guitar playing is beyond belief. The neoclassical elements really help define the sound of Necrophagist into something completely unique and enjoyable to listen to. All of the instruments were recorded by Muhammad Suicmez as well as the drum machine which is why this album gets an 8 for sound. It is however, the best self-recorded album I have ever heard. // 8

Lyrics and Singing: The lyrics on this album are very interesting. They display a very good vocabulary and an obsession with dead flesh. The lyrics to most of the songs on the album are very comical to read because, although brutal, they are very disgusting and graphic. The vocals are good and low but don't have much variation, although he is singing and playing incredibly technical guitar at the same time. The vocal patterns go very well with the music however. // 7

Impression: For a first album, this is indeed a masterpiece. Necrophagist managed to go from having a single member during the recording of this album, to being a highly respected band in the death metal community. The songs on this album are very brutal and technical and this album is a must for anyone who likes death metal, neoclassical, or just insane guitar. // 9

Isn't the album called "Onset of Putrefaction"?
No offence, but knowing what you're talking about helps.

Sorry, I can't believe it could be that brilliant. IMO, no band should ever be given ten in every aspect. To me you just sound like a crazed fanboy. I mean;

We aren't bothered what the lyrics LOOK like.
And we aren't interested about how he can do this stuff live. This is the album review.

Good job getting the album title wrong. It's "Putrefaction," not, "Putrification."

Great album, awful review.

Savage Animal :
Badass cd. I also saw these guys live with Dying Fetus, Cannibal Corpse, and Unmerciful. Just as good live as on the cd. Their guitarists are seriously talented, and i got to talk to their bassist before the show (he was sellin their tshirts). nice guys, great music

I saw them a few weeks ago also, I was mainly going to see cannibal corpse, and I knew Fetus was great and I heard some great stuff about Necro, and they were ****ing amazing. Unmerciful was pretty good too.

nirvana4lf :
man that muhammed suicmez hes ****ing amazing.
he recorded all the guitars and bass
and programmed the drumming, but then it got remastered, twice. still amazing shit. but the other album, epitaph, is better song-writing wise, but not as crazy shredding (imo)

cpt_pimp :
i just think he doesn't own the album, maybe that's why the review has nothing to do with the album. but geez cut the man some slack. i don't own the album, but i have a lot of their songs. lyricwise i have no ****ing clue what they're tlaking about, i'm not a big fan of death metal growls, but the man sure can shred. and i didn't know he recorded pretty much all the instruments. i find that more informative than the review

i think its not that this guy cant type, hes most likely foreign, because his wordings sound as if he was someone from another country who learned english, so to him that makes perfect sense, but to us its just jibberish, so dont blame him.

i think it is awesome that muhammed suiçmez did 99% of Onset, and it is pure insanity. the stuff of H.P. Lovecraft tales.

Foul Body Autopsy should be about 20 minutes long...its too short and wayy too awesome.

What a disgrace - The album is called "Onset of Putrefaction", not Putrification. Shame on you UG, or whoever started this review.

And oh yeah, music just doesn't getter much better than this.
