‘Festering Grotesqueries’ is a musical statement crafted and executed by four individuals who are completely sold out to heavy fucking metal. Firmly rooted in the sounds of classic Death Metal and Grindcore, ‘Festering Grotesqueries’ is all at once cacophonous and catchy, merciless and memorable, an album that is as brutal as it is fun. Avoiding genre stereotypes that would relegate them to the dustbins occupied by countless imitators of the oldschool, Dripping Decay have combined speed and technique with groove and swagger to create a dynamic exhibition of crushing and unforgettable tracks: 14 ‘Festering Grotesqueries’ in all.
