Krampüs - Mental Holocaust

Review by Dean Chamberlain

Mental Holocaust by Krampüs: A Brutal Dive Into Sonic Carnage Krampüs’ Mental Holocaust isn’t just an album—it’s a relentless auditory assault that grabs you by the throat and doesn’t let go. Released in 2012 via Terranis Productions and Sevared Records, this Hungarian death metal/grindcore hybrid is not for the faint of heart. It’s raw, unfiltered, and packed with enough aggression to make your ears bleed (in a good way). Tracks like “Prepare for Impaling!” and “Sweet Kill” stand out as particularly memorable moments in what feels like an endless barrage of sonic chaos. Let’s talk about “Prepare for Impaling!” first. If there was ever a track title that perfectly summed up its sound, this would be it. The opening riff hits you like a freight train, all chugging guitars and blastbeat fury. What sticks with me here is how tight the band sounds—they’re not just mindlessly thrashing around; every note feels deliberate, every growl calculated. And then there’s that breakdown halfway through—man, it’s disgusting in the best possible way. You can practically feel the mosh pit forming in your living room. Then there’s “Sweet Kill,” which flips the script slightly. Don’t get me wrong, it’s still brutal as hell, but there’s something almost…catchy about it? The groove on this one sneaks up on you when you least expect it, making it one of those songs you’ll find yourself humming later—even if you don’t wanna admit it. Plus, the vocals have this guttural nastiness that cuts right through the mix. It’s like being screamed at by someone who really means it. The rest of the album keeps the energy cranked to 11, with tracks like “Autopsy Ejaculation” and “Murder, Madness, Revenge!” delivering exactly what their titles promise. There’s zero filler here—just 50 minutes of pure, unrelenting mayhem. Even the production has this grimy, lo-fi quality that somehow works in its favor, adding to the overall vibe of controlled chaos. One thing worth noting is how consistent Krampüs manages to stay across such a punishing runtime. Sure, some tracks blur together after multiple listens, but that’s kinda the point, right? This isn’t background music—it demands your full attention. And honestly, I wouldn’t have it any other way. By the time the final notes of the title track “Mental Holocaust” fade out, you’re left exhausted—and maybe a little nauseous. But hey, that’s grindcore for ya. Unexpectedly, though, the album made me reflect on how much heavier extreme music has gotten since 2012. Listening to this now feels like stepping into a time capsule where brutality reigned supreme without apology. So yeah, if you’re looking for polished melodies or radio-friendly hooks, keep walking. But if you crave intensity, grit, and sheer musical violence, Mental Holocaust will scratch that itch till it bleeds. Just don’t say we didn’t warn ya.

About Krampüs

Death metal/grindcore band from Veszprém, Hungary.

Interesting fact about Album

Here’s a cool fact: The album *Mental Holocaust* by Krampüs is a wild ride through extreme metal. Released in 2012 in Hungary, it blends death metal and grindcore into a chaotic mix. What’s wild is that the album includes two versions of "Prepare for Impaling!"—one with an exclamation mark in the tracklist and one without. It’s like they’re daring you to catch the difference. With brutal tracks like "Autopsy Ejaculation" and "Sweet Kill," this record isn’t for the faint of heart. Definitely a piece of metal history from Terranis Productions and Sevared Records.
