5.0 out of 5 stars Slipknot meets Carcass meets Ministry rapes Fear Factory, December 12, 2001

Ok any grind freak needs to get this album. Anyone thats into Atrax Morgue, Merzbow, Ministry, or some stupid little Industrial Trent Reznor project stuff needs to listen to this. Berzerker has became my favorite goregrind/industrial hybrid metal band. They way surpase Fear Factory in melding death and industrial together. They as well have better masks than Slipknot and if I were Slipknot I would get these guys to tour with me. The vocals on this album is spoken so fast in the standard deathmetal growl. I don't know how they do it. All I know it ends up coming out like some poem. I love it. Bill Steer would be proud of these aussie guys. Oh and be sure to turn down your stereo when you get to the last three experimental noise tracks or you'll end up blowing up your speakers. High frequencies and speakers are not good!!! So check this CD out and visit their website and be sure to look for the second CD thats comming out soon. There is a second edition of this CD available with a 2nd CD with demos and a sample of the next CD from Earache.

5.0 out of 5 stars Total hate against human being, March 30, 2002

By 

Dying Fetys (Mexico) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Berzerker (Audio CD)

The Berzerker take the misanthropical feelings in you to the extreme. Their low bass, fast guitars, industrial samples, intense drumming and heart-raping vocals create an atmosphere of rage and power. They use a drum machine that reminds me some of Mortician's best work, like in hacked up...
The Berzerker's lyrics have a straight misanthropical message that really makes listeners to think about many circumstances of human life that could be changed.
The fact that they wear masks does not mean they try to be like a slipknot-mushroomhead-mudvayne-etc-band, but it has a special meaning (in order to understand more, check their webpage); also, in my opinion they play a heavier, more violent music.
Buy it if you like extreme music and have enough intelligence to see more than what others see.

5.0 out of 5 stars When the Ugly become the Beautiful..., December 16, 2000

By

I'll sum it up like this: The Berzerker plays a brand of metal that is truly ugliness incarnate. If Charles Manson has ever had a song stuck in his head, it would be something by The Berzerker.

I'm not much of a gambler, but I'll gladly wager that you have NEVER heard anything like this before. It is truly unique, and really not to be missed.

But be careful: when the reviewers say that this album is hardcore, they mean to say that this album IS hardcore.

I say: buy the album. You will be stunned. But if you don't like it, I would suggest finding a priest to help you dispose of it.
