UMUR
"Repulsion For Humanity" is the second full-length studio album by multi-national death metal act Sinsaenum. The album was released through earMUSIC in August 2018. It´s the successor to "Echoes Of The Tortured" from 2016 although the two full-length studio albums were bridged by the 2017 "Ashes" EP. "Repulsion For Humanity" was recorded by the same sextet lineup who recorded the previous releases by the band, so Sinsaenum still features the vocal services of both Sean Zatorsky (Dååth, Chimaira) and Attila Csihar (Gravetemple, Mayhem, Tormentor, Aborym). Sinsaenum is quite the supergroup death metal project though and the lineup also features guitarist Stéphane Buriez (Loudblast), drummer Joey Jordison (Slipknot, Vimic, Scar the Martyr, Muderdolls), bassist Heimoth (Decrepit Spectre, Seth, Void), and guitarist Frédéric Leclercq (DragonForce, Menace, Kreator). The latter is the founder of Sinsaenum.

Stylistically the material on "Repulsion For Humanity" pretty much continues the US death metal style of the preceding releases by the band, and it´s especially the Florida scene and artists like Morbid Angel and Deicide who come to mind (one song features a heavy Pestilence influence too). There´s an occasional blackened edge to the proceedings, but it has decreased a bit since the last couple of releases. The musicianship is on a high level on all posts and especially Jordison deserves a special mention for his energetic and powerful precision drumming. He is such a great drummer and shows it again here. The sound production is of a good quality and slightly more raw than on the preceding releases, which suits the material well. So on most parameters "Repulsion For Humanity" is a good quality sophomore release by Sinsaenum. I´m missing a bit more uniqueness and original songwriting and maybe also a few more hooks, but other than that this is a quality death metal release for fans of technically well played US death metal predominantly influenced by the greatest Florida artists of the early 90s. A 3.5 star (70%) rating is deserved.
