Confrontation With Abnormal Violation by Torture The Mass: A Wild Ride Through Death Metal Chaos
Alright, let’s get one thing straight—this album isn’t for the faint of heart. Confrontation With Abnormal Violation by Torture The Mass is as raw and brutal as death metal gets. Released in 2009 under the radar (literally, it’s “Not On Label”), this German-Austrian-Swiss trio doesn’t hold back when it comes to shock value, gore, and pure sonic aggression. If you’re into music that punches you in the face and then laughs at your pain, this might just be your jam.
First off, the tracklist alone reads like a horror movie script gone wrong—or gloriously right, depending on how twisted your taste is. Tracks like Mortuary Ass Fuck Action and One-Night-Stand With The No-Leg-Bitch are exactly what they sound like: over-the-top, grotesque, and unapologetically offensive. But hey, if subtlety is what you're after, you’re barking up the wrong corpse here.
Let me break down two tracks that stuck with me because… well, once you hear them, you can’t unhear them.
Track 1: Mortuary Ass Fuck Action
Yeah, I know—the title’s ridiculous, but don’t let that fool ya. This song slams harder than most things I’ve heard in recent years. It opens with this guttural growl that feels like someone’s screaming from the depths of hell itself. Then BAM! The drums kick in like machine gun fire, and the guitars shred so fast you’ll think your speakers are melting. What makes this track memorable isn’t just its name—it’s the relentless energy. There’s no breathing room; it’s all chaos, all the time. You won’t find any soft intros or melodic breaks here, which is kinda refreshing in an odd way. It’s like being chased through a graveyard by something evil. Terrifying? Sure. Addictive? Absolutely.
Track 2: One-Night-Stand With The No-Leg-Bitch
Okay, okay, before you even ask—yes, the titles are intentionally absurd, almost comical. But don’t mistake humor for lack of skill. This track has some killer riffs that’ll make your headbang till your neck hurts. The vocals alternate between gut-wrenching screams and low, demonic growls, creating this unsettling push-and-pull vibe. The tempo shifts halfway through, throwing you off balance in the best possible way. Honestly, it’s hard not to admire the craftsmanship behind the madness. Plus, the imagery conjured up by the lyrics (if you can decipher them) is both horrifying and strangely fascinating. Like watching a train wreck—you wanna look away, but you can’t.
Now, does every track hit the mark? Not really. Some songs feel repetitive, and there are moments where the shock factor overshadows the actual musicianship. But honestly, that’s part of the charm. Torture The Mass knows exactly what they’re doing—they’re here to offend, provoke, and pummel your eardrums into submission. And guess what? They succeed.
Here’s the kicker though—listening to this album made me realize something weird. As much as we try to sanitize everything these days, there’s still space for art that’s ugly, messy, and downright uncomfortable. Maybe we need bands like Torture The Mass to remind us that music doesn’t always have to be pretty or safe. Sometimes, it needs to be a punch in the gut—a reminder that life itself can be chaotic and gross.
So yeah, would I recommend Confrontation With Abnormal Violation? If you dig extreme metal and don’t mind getting a little dirty, absolutely. Just maybe don’t play it around grandma unless she’s cool with hearing about “shit-filled body parts.” Trust me on that one.
