There've been lots of bands which've tried to overcome the meaning of the term 'extreme' and Last Days of Humanity have accomplished that aim.

This is their 3rd official release, a live album, feeding the appetites of their fans short before their awaited impending new studio CD. All you find here is: a huge sound, rotten mouthfarts (what great vocal effects you guys have chosen!), heavy fast riffs and pulverizing human drums, usually as rapid as a drum machine at full speed, with grind blasts, ultra-frantic tom tom sloshes, and when they slow down, there's place only for crushing riffs. In a nutshell, imagine a mix between Carcass, Mortician and C.S.S.O., not bad, isn't it?
What Carcass started 18 years ago has been updated and the attitude of the Dutch guys surpasses the English ones'; as a matter of fact Jeff Walker and his associates always had a humour vein lying between the lines of their releases, which is completely absent here, replaced by pure research of extreme biliar disgust, mixed with total cynism and a bad taste that finds my complete appreciation; one of those apocalyptic, noisy, splattering bands, whose artwork is once more composed from real gory photos from our own planet, nothing more nothing less; tens of graves, viciously injured dead people from the 3rd World and one case of hydrocephalic new-born.

This live experience will probably be one of the bloodiest and most stenching ones in (y)our lives, I think L.D.O.H. do deserve the appellative of world's goriest smashing grind band. Enjoy the violence!
