Like many of us, I journeyed through a number of different genres figuring out what I like (and I may never be done). Along the way, I stumbled into Severe Torture in the used section of my local CD Warehouse (fuck I’m old) and picked it up on a whim. These days, I don’t have the patience for much of brutal death’s drum style, but this was a welcome departure from the mainstream at the time (2005?)
