CANNIBAL CORPSE

2nd album from 1991 by American CANNIBAL CORPSE, widely regarded as one of the cornerstones of Death Metal. With "Butchered at Birth", the band pushed brutality far beyond its debut, intensifying both its musical assault and its infamous gore imagery, with an album cover that became one of the most controversial and frequently censored in the history of extreme metal.

The record also marked a significant leap forward in the band's songwriting, featuring heavier and more memorable riffs, outstanding musicianship and a more powerful production that perfectly captures the savagery of timeless tracks such as "Meat Hook Sodomy", "Gutted", "Innards Decay" and the title track. Chris Barnes delivers one of the defining vocal performances of his career, helping establish a sound that would shape the future of Brutal Death Metal for decades to come. An undisputed classic whose influence remains immeasurable.
