SICK REVIEWS

Involuntary Convulsion​-Tempus Edax Rerums (New Standard Elite​)

From the distant and mysterious Australian fucking lands, an impure and horrifying shadow has risen in 2012 with the name of Involuntary Convulsion and spreading a fucking plague of great mortality inflicting 5 different death unimaginably fucking dark and complex known as the "Tempus Edax Rerums"! 19 fucking minutes of insanity and highly developed technicality that make this EP very difficult to dig through its ubiquitous complexity and a very fucking dark composition making it even more hardly accessible! Involuntary Convulsion are performing a Technical Death Fucking Metal with a big progressive touch and a brutal fucking side still present with influences of bands like Old Defeated Sanity, Cynic and some Necrophagist feelings! The band consist of Zachary Ross (Vocals), Adrian Cappelletti (Guitars/Bass), Alex Cohen (Drums) and the trio shows an high insane fucking technical level with a total fucked up songwriting giving them without doubt, despite the influences, an identity and putting out an unique fucking piece of dark technical complexity! Zachary is giving a powerful guttural maybe somewhat linear but still fucking enjoyable, Adrian on guitars/bass is just fucking amazing by giving an awesome performance maybe sometimes lacking of catchyness but delivering brilliant parts and finally Alex is fucking insane with a technical drumming totally successful with only some parts lacking a little brutality! The production of this shit is near fucking perfect, a well done mixing and a sound giving a deep and deathly cold fucking atmosphere making us really feel like watching a fucking bunch of leprosous human agonizing, dying and decomposing everywhere! With its 5 songs, "Tempus Edax Rerums" is an album still fucking hard to dig with a technical side that have as danger to can miss brutality and getting lost in its complexity and this release is, unfortunately, not saved from it and we could blame a big lack of catchy parts and addiction but this fucking piece of insanity is still of a brilliance and ingenuity guaranteed! Involuntary Convulsion despite some downside in the composition have completely managed their debut with a great fucking EP and the flaws mentionned above are only increasing their insanity making them fucking unique among the saturation of the Death Metal scene! "Tempus Edax Rerums" is not necessarily a memorable release but highly recommended by its aspect of complexity and technical fucking insanity putting Involuntary Convulsion among the best bands from this fucking genre! Amazing Intense Fucking Piece of Cold Cadaveric Shitty Atmosphere with a Technical Dark Fucking Insanity! 8.5/10
