Maniacult

Belgian export Aborted are just as happy telling wet fart jokes as they are purveying some of the finest death metal on the continent. Over the course of the groups 20-plus career, theyve transformedvia tongue-through-cheek and gross-out histrionicsfrom minor curio to the Powerhouse from Flanders. The ascent through death metals maggot-infested, disease-ridden ranks didnt come easy, however. Starting with 2003s stab-to-the-face Goremageddon: The Saw and the Carnage Done, Aborted crawled through some of the most disgusting sewers, serviced some of the wickedest human waste plants, and cleaned up Europes most brutal crime scenes. From there, its been nothing but golden showers and true reverence (by fan and peer alike) across six agonizingly good full-lengths. But Aborted arent that funny. They are, however, sickly serious and positively savage.
