CANNIBAL CORPSE – VILE

Description

Released in 1996, *Vile* marked a pivotal moment in the history of Cannibal Corpse. It was the band’s first album to feature George “Corpsegrinder” Fisher on vocals following the departure of Chris Barnes, ushering in a new era of even greater technical precision, intensity and brutality. The gamble paid off spectacularly, with *Vile* becoming the first Cannibal Corpse album to enter the Billboard 200 and helping cement the band’s status as death metal’s undisputed kings.

Musically, *Vile* is a relentless assault of razor-sharp riffs, machine-gun drumming and some of the most ferocious vocal performances in extreme metal. Fan favourites such as “Devoured By Vermin”, “Mummified In Barbed Wire”, “Disfigured” and “Eaten From Inside” showcase a band operating at peak aggression while pushing their songwriting into heavier and more technically accomplished territory. Thirty years on, the album remains one of the defining releases of the death metal genre.

This 30th Anniversary Edition is pressed on limited Pale Dead Skin Marbled vinyl, making it an essential addition for collectors and long-time fans alike. A landmark release that proved Cannibal Corpse could evolve, survive and become even more devastating.
