Project Failing Flesh – “A Beautiful Sickness”
Since this has ex-Voivod vocalist Eric Forrest, this is obviously going to get some interest going. Unfortunately, this sounds pretty unimpressive. It sounds like people that have been listening to death metal and thrash and want to combine many things into one. This, obviously, thrashes and grinds, here and there, but it does not sound genuine. It sounds too generic, too imitative. They cover Venom’s “Warhead.” I have no idea why they decided to cover one of Venom’s most boring songs.This has no elements to make it stand out. It’s thrashy, yes, it’s heavy, yes, but so what? It’s not great. It’s pretty mediocre. Playing fast in and of itself is no virtue, neither is screaming. Check this out if you are an Eric Forrrest fan.
