CORPORAL PUNISHMENT - Profaned Relics (1992) Spinefarm Records ⚫︎Original pressing. Out of print. Rare disc. SPI 6 CD | No barcode Matrix / Runout: SPICD 6 MPO 01 @@@ 9 First album by a Finnish Death Metal band. The drummer is Agathon, a Finnish dark side charismatic figure who left his mark on Airdash, Thy Serpent, Gloomy Grim, Soulgrind, Nomicon, etc., and passed away in 2022. The guitarist is Mörgoth of Gloomy Grim. Vo/bass Ali has a low, thick voice and spits out lyrics rhythmically. He is withdrawn and apathetic, yet intimidating. His bass playing is skillful and dramatic. The backing is aggressive and also conveys unease and brutality, but instead of blast beats, they dramatically develop thrash-like rhythms and doomy heaviness, a transitional style between thrash metal and death metal, old school doom death metal. Influences from early gothic metal can also be seen. You can experience a different side of the young Agathon and Mörgoth. An interesting work where they are seriously playing heavy metal. Produced/mixed by Timo Tolkki of Stratovarius. He creates a Finnish sound with good separation.
