Sanguisugabogg / Jesus Piece — live event
Shat out of hell, indeed. That’s the sonic stench that permeates the epically unpronounceable, utterly indecipherable and altogether uncompromising sound of Ohio’s notorious gore-merchants, SANGUISUGABOGG. Homicidal Ecstasy, the ‘Bogg’s second Century Media platter of splatter isn’t merely a return to the “down-tuned drug death” that defined 2021’s Tortured Whole. It’s the fluid-streaked byproduct of a band that hit the road like crazed serial killers and never looked back as they plunged deeper into a celebration of Mortician-worshiping brutal death metal sounds and splatter classics like Dead-Alive. They also became a badass live and studio proposition in the process. “Everything became more legit,” states vocalist Devin Swank. Indeed, SANGUISGUABOGG has emerged from the pandemic, toured the US and Europe and with Homicidal Ecstasy made a record that will go down as a benchmark for modern death metal. They’re no longer that band of meme-inspiring miscreants. “The musicianship, the production, the lyrics – which delve much more into horror and body horror – are more thought-out,” says Devin. “It’s not just a bunch of dick and fart jokes.” Make no mistake – the ’Bogg hasn’t gone soft. From the album’s gurgling opener, “Black Market Vasectomy”, Homicidal Ecstasy is very much SANGUISUGABOGG. It maintains the queasiness-inducing feel of 2019’s debut EP, Pornographic Seizures while serving up a bloody dollop of refined riffage. “Face Ripped Off”, which features Jesus Piece frontman, Aaron Heard testing the lows of his throat, is bowel-rattling as it gets while tracks like the manic “Skin Cushion” accelerates, swerves and then smooshes the senses courtesy of drummer Cody Davidson’s almost jazz-like rhythms.
