Cannibal Corpse - Violence Unimagined ALBUM REVIEW 

Corpsegrinder has the best huge neck in the game

Death metal album ✅ "Meat and potatoes" ✅

Cannibal corpse is one of the most consistent DM bands of all time. Respect.

Mans really been putting some miles on the Napalm Death shirt recently

This melon guy knows quite a bit about music. You could even say he's the web's most occupied geek

this record fucked so hard. erik rutan as an addition to the band not just a producer was such a good and natural choice. one of their best records since Kill probably

Never heard of these guys.

A metal review that DOESN’T piss everyone off? Impossible

Can’t believe they put Phoebe Bridgers on their album cover

I'm not even a death metal fan but I'm happy he likes this one, anything positive for the metal genre is a win in my book

Mileena from Mortal Kombat dropped a album. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥.

Rutan has been producer for CC albums before, so he knows what he's doing. Definitely loving the re-introduction of the more thrashy sound from their earlier years that's been going on for the last few albums. Rips ya good. 🤟

I think this will go down as one of their better albums, it sounds so energetic and focused. Really good album

2021, year of the 7s

I seriously did not expect this

Cannibal Corpse is so amazingly consistent. Every time they drop an album, I know what I'm getting, and I thoroughly enjoy it.

The Taylor Swift features sure tied this all up

My favourite pop record of the entire year

It's a solid 85, easy. It's sitting at 86% right now on Metal Archives. It's a great album. And it does sound like a mixture of Hate eternal and Cannibal Corpse. Rutan is an amazing guitarist.

my dad went to school with the bassist for the band and he showed me their music when i was 12

Saying you would love corpsegrinder to “grind” on you was a bit weird but ok

*Anthony is so desensitized by the war crimes he’s committed* that he doesn’t mind how bloody and gory this album is.

It's weird that this album has the calmest art cover they've ever made Edit: I saw the NSFW original version and it's fucking awesome, but holy shit wtf it's eating a baby wtf

Disappointed that Cannibal Corpse hasn't covered Dua Lipa yet.

Melon head describing the lyrical context of brutally violent Cannibal Corpse songs as eloquently as he can for this review is the absolute best

Let’s just respect the fact that the comment section isn’t filled with meme comments and other bullshit he gets in most of the reviews since a long time. Not a DM fan but will give it a listen since it’s a mostly positive review and for the most part when I decide to listen to something after I see it from him - I do end up enjoying it (or loveing it - Pinata and other Gibbs projects).

Their best album in a while

Melon going back to his metal roots ⁉️ 😳

PLEASE, MORE METAL REVIEWS, PLEASE

"A Skeletal Domain" remains my favorite album so far, "Red Before Black" felt like a regression to me, but I can't say I've ever actually been let down by the bands work. The new one is pretty good.

Phoebe Bridgers been looking good these days

I'm so happy that Anthony reviewed a Cannibal Corpse album. Love you baby 3>

Melon be careful with this one. Death metal fans will make u into an album cover.

It's always good to see Melon review metal. Sucks that he doesn't do it as often as he did years ago, but you gotta go with whatever brings in the most views, I guess.

Phoebe bridgers looks so good on this album cover

Holy shit he actually is reviewing something metal for once, Happy metalhead sounds!

This band is more consistent than any given corpse.

Damn, this is an actually good review. I would maybe give it a strong 8 rather than a decent 7, but your heart is in the right place Anthony, and I appreciate that.

I'd given up hope you'd even review this album, this is surprising. I loved it though, so good to see you enjoyed it too. Honestly, I feel like Cannibal Corpse is probably one of the most consistent veteran metal bands out there, along with Napalm Death.

There are two kinds of music: original, authentic and compelling, and derivative, copycat and/or manufactured. I appreciate a lot of thrash and death metal, though there are just SO MANY that copy the same formula and even fonts and artwork, that both are hugely over-populated genres. But Cannibal Corpse are one of the innovators in their realm, so worth a listen. Thanks for the thoughful review- it is cool that you really listen and explain why it makes certain impressions on you. You get deep inside the music, and so hats off to you! I'll give this one a listen myself. I have to say though that I never understood why a genre that is so often dismissed entirely by the mainstream typically play right into their own stereotype with the gruesome but oddly funny bad art and splatter-house song titles. But that's just me. They probably don't give a F*** , so I guess you hardcore punk , and even most hip hop is that way too. Formulaic, but proud of it.

Now that I know fantano's opinion on the album I can go enjoy it. Thanks melon.

I was blown away by how good this was honestly after all of the drama with Pat I thought that Cannibal Corpse was finished then they turn around and released one of their best records in decades.

Need more metal review this was a shocking surprise 🤘🏽

Day 27 of asking Anthony to review LMFAO - Party Rock and Sorry For Party Rocking

Their best since Evisceration Plague IMO. Solid!

I love that you are a true music nerd and will review almost everything I listen to including death metal. Thank you; You are the only music critic worth checking out.

I'm a big fan of CC, and really dig this album from beginning to end. I was afraid that the loss of Pat was going to kill it for me. The line up for the past few albums was my fave for CC, but Eric really brought it. It's an 8 for me. I do agree, that the first half is the best.

"At this point you would expect they'd imagined every violence at least twice" I stole this joke.

This is there best project in awhile. Necrogenic resurrection is a banger.

Longtime Ariana Grande fan here, and I gotta say “Violence Unimagined” by Cannibal Corpse is one of the better thrash metal albums I’ve listened to all year.

Thrashy brutal Death Metal with groovy riffs made with modern master and mix. Fuck yeah

This is their best album since Torture

Fantano wearing that napalm death shirt and vest full of patches, praising cannibal corpse, is just doooing it for me rn ngl 😭

"beating a dead horse, even though that does sound like something they would write a really epic song about." LOL

Why does Fantano wear a jacket that says simp on it.

OMG! Huge Fantano and Corpse fan. I never thought I'd see a CC review on this channel. I'm just... so happy right now. Thank you, Anthony. You made my day. :)

Cannibal Corpse.. 30 years of being metal as fuck! 🤘🔥

Fun fact: cannibal corpse is Jim carey's favorite band and he requested they were incorporated in the ace Ventura soundtrack

I appreciate how seriously he reviews Cannibal Corpse albums.

The bass was actually a DI track recorded at home for this album. Alex Webster couldn't reach the studio due to lockdowns.

Cannibal Corpse are the Godzilla of Death Metal. Loud, Violent, Destructive & Powerful...and no doubt they always will be.

VINDICATION THANK YOU for the last week me and my buds have been arguing about the mix, and first thing I said is “I can’t hear any of the low end in my car” and they were listening on headphones telling me it’s fine. I’m so glad I’m not the only person who noticed absolutely no low end

Damn, Phoebe Bridgers got dark

U made me realize why this album specifically got me into CC. I`m a big Slayer fan and haven`t heard much Death Metal, now knowing this is more thrashy than their usual stuff makes a lot of sense to me.

Looking forward to a new Portal review. Altarage just dropped a banger as well.

fantano actually dressed up for this, in his h&m generic metalhead aesthetic, i appreciate the effort

1 of 10 metal albums Anthony will review this year. Btw Erik Rutan is a LEGEND.

This review made me go back and listen to Cannibal Corpse's entire catalogue. What a great band! Hard to pick a favorite album.

Good melon. Speaking of what to review next, in a few days we get a new Gojira album

That's Mileena from Mortal Kombat on the album cover.

I like the fact that when Cannibal Corpse comes on I can be assured that I am getting good death metal no matter what album.

Love this album. The more I've listened to it the more I dig it. Really appreciate the slightly different guitar tones on this album, wondering if they mixed in a boosted 800 a la Rutan? The guitars seem more clear and cutting with a greater high mid content and not as insanely distorted. Also dig the different variety in the solos and some more cool melodies here and there. These are also the clearest I've heard Corpsegrinder's vocals in a while, which were already pretty clear on albums.

I really liked this album! It’s solid

Surprised but pleased to see a review of this. Great album

the death band that wont die

My top 11 of this album 1 - Condemnation Contagion 2 - Murderous Rampage 3 - Inhumane Harvest 4 - Ritual Annihilation 5 - Necrogenic Resurrection 6 - Surround, Kill, Devour 7 - Follow The Blood 8 - Cerements Of The Flayed 9 - Overtorture 10 - Slowly Slawn 11 - Bound And Burned

Dear Melon, could you please do the new Gojira album?

okay but Krallice's return to raw and atmospheric black metal with Demonic Wealth NEEDS to be addressed in a video, or at least a yunoreview

omg is Phoebe Bridgers ok?????????????

In my personal, and professional opinion, A Skeletal Domain is probably the most "full" sounding Corpse record out there. The production on that record is fantastic.

Huh, I do like aggressive music and the album cover looks interesting

I've been obsessed with this record. Well over 30 listens now.

Is Anthony gonna review some gore grind eventually

I have a vinyl rip of this new one. The increased dynamic range from the vinyl mastering is much appreciated.

Great job, Anthony - more metal please

that is Phoebe Bridgers on the cover

It took me years to get into Cannibal Corpse, but as I got older and hated life more they became part of my walking around the streets soundtrack.

I thought it was a 9.5, my top three C.C. albums are: A Skeletal Domain, Violence Unimagined, Vile

Everyone stop saying that the cover art is phoebe i am losing my mind

thank you for continuing to review metal albums, anthony. i guess you’re kind of “mainstream” as far as youtube goes, so it’s nice that you bring metal into the public eye, even if though it’s probably mostly metalheads that watch this.

cannibal corpse? who tf is that?? oh do you mean SIX FEET UNDER???? melon's a poser

Pheobe bridgers is that you

Anthony! Put that record down! Mom told you to not listen to violent music! You are getting grounded melon!

Pat's absence was really felt on this record I thought. He really provided a lot of the super technical and surgically precise riffing and songwriting. The best example of that is the A Skeletal Domain album which he contributed to greatly. It just didn't feel like they were pushing the boundaries of what they could do technically. Mostly just spinning their wheels. I'm sure Rob Barrett had to contribute more music because of of Pat not being in the band and his songs tend to be a lot less technical and more barbaric in a way.

Fuck yeah finally a great death metal album, their best since Torture, this and last year's Vitriol LP were a much needed kick in the ass of death metal.

The album is looking like a free iPhone horror game

Corpsegrinder is my favorite death metal thumb. BTW- Nice to see Baraka's sister getting some modeling work on the cover.

Cannibalthony Corpsetano

Solid praise and a respectable rating for a death metal band. Good shit, Ant.

Love this record
