UMUR
"Torn Apart" is a single release by UK death metal act Slimelord. The single was independently released in June 2021. It features one track and it´s a cover of Swedish death metal legends Carnage. The track was originally released on the various artists compilation album "Lemlästad Och Begraven" released by the Noxious Ruin label. The compilation which is a celebration of old school Swedish death metal also features material from artists like Soul Devourment, Wharflurch, Thorn, Absconder, Putrid Tomb, Celestial Sanctuary, Foul Decay, For The Pyres, Guilty View, Fumes, Coagulate, Hollowed Body.

While Slimelord manages to put a little of their own spin on the "Torn Apart" track, Carnage old school Swedish death metal style is in reality pretty far removed from the claustrophobic and cavernous death-doom metal of Slimelord´s own releases, so it´s not the most successful or interesting cover of a Carnage song that I have ever heard, but less will do, and Slimelord arguably do a decent job covering "Torn Apart". The sound production is decent too and overall a 3 star (60%) rating isn´t all wrong.
