Though it only clocks in at twenty five minutes in length, the second full-length album from Italian death metal act Exhumer ticks all of the boxes expected from a modern brutal death metal release - the riffs are technical, the drumming sounds faster than a machine gun, and the vocals are gutteral and indecipherable... not to mention the sickening artwork and grossly descriptive song titles (I'm looking at you, “Pungent Aroma of Uterine Necrosis”!). This certainly would make 2013's Degraded by Sepsis an enjoyable spin for any enthusiast of brutal death metal, but for more casual fans of the style, there's really nothing here to set Exhumer apart from the hordes of other bands playing this type of music. Whilst the playing is solid throughout Degraded by Sepsis and there are even a handful of catchy riffs, everything about it just screams “generic”. It's not bad, but it's not that good either.
