UMUR
"Raped in Their Own Blood" is the debut full-length studio album by Swedish death metal act Vomitory. The album was relaesed through Fadeless Records in November 1996. Vomitory was founded in 1989, and "Raped in Their Own Blood" is preceded by no less than three demos and the 1993 "Moribound" EP.

Unlike the majority of their Swedish contemporaries Vomitory do not play an old school Swedish death metal style in the vein of Entombed and Dismember. Instead the material on "Raped in Their Own Blood" is influenced by a more varied palette of old school death metal styles. Sure the album features hardcore punk influenced riffs and rhythms like many of the Stockholm based Swedish death metal artists also use on their releases, and there´s the occassional morbid melodic touch which also points in that direction, but other than that Vomitory aren´t that "Swedish" sounding. They generally play a more grim, raw, and murky sounding death metal, which features both fast-paced, heavy mid-paced, and doomy death metal parts and a mean sounding growling vocalist.

"Raped in Their Own Blood" may not be the most unique sounding old school death metal release, but the raw authenticy, the anarchestic approach to songwriting, and the grimness of the sound production are all contributing factors to the fact, that it´s a highly effective old school death metal release. A 3.5 star (70%) rating is deserved.
