Black vinyl with insert and poster.

Background information about 'The Wretched Spawn'

Cannibal Corpse's "The Wretched Spawn" is a visceral journey into the depths of human depravity and brutality, marking the zenith of their relentless death metal assault. Released originally in 2004, this reissue captures the raw intensity that has cemented the band's legacy. With tracks like "Frantic Disembowelment," known for its frenetic pace and technical prowess, and "Festering In The Crypt," which offers a more sinister groove, the album showcases a dynamic range within their genre.

The lyrical content delves into themes of gore and horror, delivered with George "Corpsegrinder" Fisher's guttural growls that are both haunting and commanding. Instrumentally, the band is at its peak; Alex Webster's bass lines are intricate yet punishing, while Paul Mazurkiewicz’s drumming provides an unyielding backbone to each track. This reissue on 180-gram black vinyl ensures every riff and scream resonates with unparalleled clarity.
