Contagion - Dark Visions Against the Illuminescent Sky
Still as heavy as always, but mostly faster this time. The intensity also is increased. This sounds pretty fucking brutal, and the outstanding production only helps. I believe they changed their name [they did, to Funereal] and singed to Olympic [that turned out to be a rumor - Cryonics Records released Funereal’s only album, The Misery Season in 2000 -Editor] , so get this while you still can.

Comecon - Converging Conspiracies
The vocal duties have been passed down to Martin Van Drunen (formerly of Pestilence, then Asphyx), and his style continues, for the most part, to become less raw with this album. Musically, like the last LP, this is somewhat technical Death Metal. The lyrics are also similar to the first album. Good, but still not a masterpiece.

Clot - Septic Tank of Human Thoughts
The production is good, and the music is brutal Death Metal. Vocals are really raw. Hey the songs are even kinda memorable, and very well played. Even the lyrics are pretty cool. I’d keep my eye on these guys.

Andrew Dice Clay - The Day the Laughter Died Part II
If you liked all the earlier Dice stuff, then you’ll like this too. If not, then this certainly won’t change your mind.

Clawfinger - Deaf Dumb Blind
This album was made with “no guitar amps,” but I’ll tell you what, there are a ton of guitar riffs on here. I’m not sure why, since some guys played bass and drums, they didn’t just have a guy play the guitar parts, too. Well, anyway, on top of a bunch of guitar (somehow made without guitars), drums and bass (some kinda Industrial-Thrash, I guess) is a guy rapping. I’ll admit to not exactly being an authority on Rap, but I really think that the reason why guys like Ice Cube are popular is that their raps sound natural, not forced and completely pre-thought-out, like they are here. This might be a good concept, but I think the execution needs some serious work.

Chronic Disorder - Chronic Disprder
Everything here could use a little work (example: The repetition in the lyrics could be removed). This is okay Deathrash, but I hear better all the time. The cover of Cheech & Chong’s “Earache My Eye” is pretty funny.

Chemlab - Burnout at the Hydrogen Bar
Hey, this is really good. I wasn’t sure what to expect from Chemlab, but what I found was an Industrial band in much the same vein as Ministry. Sometimes a little too weird, but mostly right on target.

Chaos UK - One Hundred Per Cent Two Fingers in the Air Punk Rock
The first 15 seconds of this album scared the shit out of me. The remaining 55 minutes beat the shit out of me. The title says it all. Buy this.

Ceremony - Tyranny From Above
This stays on the faster side of Death, the vocals are a hellpowered chainsaw, and yet somehow it’s incredibly memorable. That must have a lot to do with the fact that this is one of the best produced extreme Death Metal records I’ve ever heard. I want my band to record wherever these guys did. This is monstrously awesome. I can’t recommend this enough.
