About the Artist
Once BANNED in Australia, New Zealand & Korea... Still BANNED from performing any material off their first three albums in Germany, where the sale of Butchered At Birth is outlawed completely! One would think this would hurt sales and inhibit the bands availability to grow but not Cannibal Corpse. Since their beginning 15 years ago as a small band out of Buffalo, NY Cannibal Corpse has not only managed to go platinum for combined worldwide sales of all albums, but in the process also gained one of the strongest and most loyal of all Death Metal fan bases in the genres history. It has also recently been discovered that the band is now officially the top selling Death Metal band of the SoundScan Era! Cannibal Corpse has buried any and all possibility of being dethroned as the reigning purveyors of Death Metal, which can be seen in their latest opus THE WRETCHED SPAWN.

4.0 out of 5 stars CC Reviewers, please don't ever change!!, May 11, 2005

People really despise Cannibal Corpse (and similar bands) and I guess I won't hold it against them. In fact, they come up with some of the funniest comments in any reviews. Take this simple cross-section:
=> "Oooga booga, florga, dead SMASH! Ooga booga, Kill!!!!" (These are actual CC lyrics)
=> "This is stuff that Serial Killers jack off to." (True, its on my to do list for later today)
=> "This idiot isn't even annunciating" (That is the biggest word ever used in a CC review)
=> "The music was a jumblef#ck" (Actually its called jumblef#ck metal)
=> Cannibal Corpse is the SICKEST, most hideous, gruesome, and in simple terms---downright gross. Anybody that recommends this travesty of music has SERIOUS problems on all echelons of their sanity! (There is not a more accurate statement on this review page)
=> "No one in the band can stand the sight of blood and they all secretly love watching oprah and soap opras." (My personal favorite)

Well, we had some fun there, but on to serious business. I personally think that Pat O'Brien & Jack Owens are two of the best metal guitar players around. True, very few people can undertand this, but if you've listened to a lot of metal (death metal, more specifically) then you will agree, even if you don't like the band. "The Wretched Spawn" is the one of the best CDs that they have made, and the production has never sounded better. But, you will either get this right away or you will never, ever like it. Cannibal Corpse is not something that you can grow to like over time -- it is a digital reaction, love it or hate it.

Also, I had never heard the Worm Infested EP, so this combination pack was a nice touch. I actually got this for Christmas, can you believe it?

5.0 out of 5 stars BRUTALFULL, January 7, 2005

By	CloseToACorpse (kansas City, MO) - See all my reviews

The Wretched Spawn is an amazing album, i find myself constantly playing "Frantic Disembowelment," "Decency Defied," "The wretched spawn," and i could list all the other songs, Beleive me when i say ur getting your moneys worth. The bonus dvd is most excellent, your getting a behind the scenes look at each of the 5 band members and interviews, the gear they use, you even get to see Pat O'brien recording "Frantic Disembowelment" and i was suprised to see just how fast the song actually was when Pat started playing it. One thing people have been saying about this band is that its just noise, well its more then that, if you take the time to listen to the guitar and the drums and the amazing bassist, you would appreciate this band for what it really is.
Along with the cd and bonus dvd u get "Worm infested" another excellent cd. I would like to add that there are alot of people telling others not to diss CC when they havent even listened to there albums or even listen to death metal, and i agree whole heartedly, if you dont like metal then DONT review albums just to say how much they suck. Thats just stupid and that person is just trying to get more reviews under there belt.

5.0 out of 5 stars Keep Killin, January 30, 2005

By	Jason X "Jeff" (Brossard, QC) - See all my reviews

Cannibal Corpse achieved alot from the Wretched Spawn...for it was their first high tech sounding clean album. With great songs such as the self titled Wretched Spawn...And Festering in the Crypt. Being smart...the band knew that there precious album Worm Infested was one that fans would like...but the album did not get much attention therefor not having to many sales. So why not put them both together....Worm infested is my favorite albums and sounds so different it made me cry....bye it today
