Sounds like: Extreme Metal
Kayotik are a band from Connecticut that draw influences from the genres of Thrash, Grindcore, and Death Metal to form their sound of Extreme Metal. This is their most recent release so let's dive right in and check it out. The opening track "8 Stages Of Death" blasts right in and goes straight for the jugular. There is a Cannibal Corpse influence on the track as it just intends to destroy with its blast beats throughout its short two minute span. "Brute Force Bloodshed" is exactly what the title suggests. It's a no holds barred track that will get the adrenaline flowing from start to finish. It's the longest track on the album and packs the biggest punch with its devastating breakdowns. "Butchery" is a straight Death Metal track and has an overbearing sense of darkness. The bass riffing later in the track is something that builds another layer to an already crushing track. "Enslaved To Chaos" is the title track and has a touch of melody. Not too much but just a smidgen while also featuring their old school meets new school Thrash/Death Metal/Grindcore signature sound. "Human Farming" has a hint of early Dillinger Escape Plan in its instrumentation with all of the time changes. The track builds and breaks perfectly in which helps keep the listeners interest. "Man Is No More" has a bit more of a Thrash sound to it. The track is a good example of the band just letting loose and keeping it fresh on the sixth track on the album. "Pollutionation" will get the head banging right away with its whirlwind inducing Metal sound. It's a track that will surely get the circle pits moving at full speed. "Terminal Ballistic" is just pure chaos. The track barrels full speed ahead and doesn't slow down with its Thrash/Grindcore inspired sound. The closing track "Theater Of The Damned" brings full circle the unadulterated sound of Kayotik. It wraps a barbed wire bow on a pulverizing album.
Verdict:
Kayotik's newest release features an old school meets new school Thrash/Death Metal/Grindcore sound.
