CEPHALOTRIPSY IS BACK, MOTHERFUCKERS #crushingslamz

Tuesday, September 20th, 2011 at 4:00pm by Sergeant D

When it comes to guttural slamming brutality, crushing slamz, and unrelenting pitt riffment, nobody does it better than San Diego’s CEPHALOTRIPSY. Their album still stands as far and away the best slam metal recording ever released, but they’ve been pretty quiet since then, only releasing two new demo songs. I kind of thought they were a one-and-done band, but I’m happy to say I was wrong. That’s right culeros, CEPHALOTRIPSY IS BACK!!!

New studio song — every bit as brutal and unforgiving as I could have hoped for, but just a tiny bit more progressive than their old stuff (in a non-pussy way, though). Oh and DAT SNARE!!

“Cephalotripsy- new song live in compton” might be the best video title of all time. Slam that sickness, 310 style!

Awkward promo vid for their fall Ukraine tour. It reminds me of when they have a shot of a celebrity at the UFC, and the camera lingers on them way, way too long and The Rock or Jason Statham is just standing there, smiling awkwardly at the camera like “OK, fuck off now.”

Hit these fools up on Facebook, and stay tuned for their second album in 2012. U MOSHING???

Serg writing about music that’s not mainstream pop punk/deathcore/metalcore designed by fat record label executives for consumption by scene girls? Serg writing about a band without controversial slogans to print in Impact Font on the back of t-shirts? What the fuck is going on?

Damn right, have you never bothered to look at what his column is called?

Sarge has always been a huge backer of the slam/brutal death scene from way, way back, even before Infernal Revulsion was a thing. In fact, there’s little doubt that he’s probably the world’s leading authority on the genre.

The guy in the interview there is talking about death metal fans so I guess he thinks they are death metal and not “slam metal.”

Scene babe repellant.

You know what makes no sense? Slam death and deathcore are quite similar stylistically, yet being in a deathcore band is an easy way to get at least one pussy per night, while being in a slam death band is like spraying yourself in vagina repellent. Do controversial slogans in impact font, stretched ears, tattoos, and colorful merch really make that big of a difference?

Yes.

This is exactly the reason that I’ve always been a deathcore vocalist, even though deep down in my heart, I have always longed to slam. The pussy totally makes up for it though.

If deathcore kids didn’t have music and just printed impact slogans, had gauges & tats, and wore colorful merch, they’d still get pussy.

FUCK YEAH! Its about time. Their first albums heavy as shit. Hopefully the new one matches up. Sounds like it is. Their snare sounded sweeter on their other album though. They should just turn the snare up louder then everything, that’d be fucking sick haha. I hate the people who comment on here half the time. YOU GUYS SUCK.

Slamz4eva

The majority of “MS” regulars won’t appreciate the brilliance of Cephalotripsy, mainly because their guitar player doesn’t use a triple-necked fretless Flying V made from wood salvaged from 12th century English church pews and their vocalist doesn’t have a nineteen octave range.
