If u listen to deathmetal, this is a must have album. This album is just amazing. The songs are great and they flow with a double bass beat that is unrelenting and incredible to hear. I got a sub in my car and this album just pounds. Each song is a mixture of death-grind and death-groove. Fleshgrind has such a unique sound; the vocals are incredibly unique and ...(words cannot describe the vocals), the guitars are very fast and quite groovy at times (a mixture of the old and new deathmetal), and the drums are completely heavy and fast. If u like the gore-core sound seen in bands like Blood Duster (great band!), exhumed, and skinless, you must hear this album. Btw, their older album is also very good, not as good as this one, but still VERY good.<P [...]

If you love death metal, BUY this album. You'll love it!!! Your gore-twisted fantasies will come into vivid puke-sex color!

THIS CD IS INCREDIBLE. I PICKED UP AFTER A FRIEND TOLD ME HOW GREAT THEY WERE. I HAVEN'T HEARD "DESTINED FOR DEFILEMENT" SO I CANT COMPARE THIS ALBUM TO THAT ONE. I CAN TELL YOU ONE THING THOUGH. THIS ALBUM HAS QUICKLY BECOME ONE OF MY FAVORITE DEATH ALBUMS, RIGHT UP THERE WITH OBITUARY "WORLD DEMISE, MORTICIAN "HOUSE BY THE CEMETARY", AND ANYTHING BY CANNIBAL CORPSE. I WOULD HAVE TO SAY IF YOU LIKE CANNIBAL CORPSE, MORTICIAN, OBITUARY, SEVERE TORTURE, MALIGNANCY, EXHUMED, VOMITORY OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT PICK THIS UP! YOU WONT REGRET IT!

Firs of all, i would like to state that most kids who listings to any deathmetal band has no clue to what exectly their listining to... But they do it because it sounds "cool" and its just so pathetic and sad. Fleshgrind, are truly talented people and they do have great lirycs but again kids should keep with nu-metal and rap-metal and stay away from this genre simply because they have no clue to what exectly they are listining to, but well ,they do it to scare their parents which takes away the whole purpose to enjoy this music. Mommy and daddy will get mad so i quess i listing to some deathmetal tunes! Blah! I was reading the reviews for nile's album "in their darkened shrines" and some kid called it "real nu-metal" now, if your a deathmetal fan and love nile that should piss you the hell off! Kids, stick to your korn and slipknot, ok ? Stay away from grown peoples music. With that out of the way... I'll say, fleshgrind's "seeds of abysmal torment" is another brutal release by fg and also very worth the purchase. Recommended by a true fan of the underground scene.

I wouldn't really call this album essential death metal, but I've always liked it a lot. If you're looking to pick up a Fleshgrind cd, make sure it's this one. Their other two full lengths are virtually unlistenable. This one is easily an above average brutal death metal cd.

Fleshgrind deserve more of a 3.5 star rating. The longer I listen to it, the more flaws I hear. They must use like B tuning or something, because the guitars are so downtuned that they have a percussive sound that gets annoying after a while. The vocals go from an Obituary-ish scream to a ungodly low grunt. At this point, all lyrics all lost in the GGRRRRRHHHHH! It is very brutal, and the musicians are talented, so they upped themselves from a 3. The lyrics are largely unispired, but not really bad either. If you like Gorguts, Cryptopsy, or any Relapse artists, then pick it up, it will provide some good background music to driving to buy a better CD.
