Rat God
[ Vinyl / 12" Album ]

Inhuman Condition, the brainchild of metal legend Terry Butler (Obituary, Death, Massacre), delivers a brutal punch to the gut with their latest album, "Rat God." Like a sledgehammer to the face, this record is not for the faint of heart. From the moment the opening track "Witch Hunt" kicks in, you are transported to a world of pure aggression and intensity. The riffs are razor-sharp, the drums are thunderous, and the vocals are a guttural roar that will leave you breathless. But don't let the heaviness fool you, there is a surprising amount of melody and nuance to be found here. Tracks like "Killing Pace" and "Plague Rampant" showcase the band's ability to weave intricate guitar work and clever song structures into their sonic assault. One of the standout moments on the album is the epic closer, "Tyrantula." Clocking in at over nine minutes, this track is a masterclass in tension and release, building to a climactic finale that will leave you begging for more. Overall, "Rat God" is a relentless beast of an album that will satisfy even the most hardened metalhead. Inhuman Condition proves once again that they are a force to be reckoned with in the world of extreme music. So grab your earplugs, crank up the volume, and prepare to be pulverized by this ferocious onslaught of sonic mayhem. Bonkers, mate! Rating: 8.7 out of 10.
