#3 - Cephalic Carnage - Anomalies
Cephalic Carnage are the end result of mixing insanely technical grind-core with weed. There's nothing else like it, which is an odd anomaly in itself. Generally when a band makes something epic other bands tag along for the ride, but not with Colorado hydro-grind. These guys are just too good at writing songs to be influential. Everything they write is so brutal and satisfying, and their live set is... fun, legitimately. They make you feel good about being a metal-head. And, if you're carrying, they will smoke up with you, no matter who you are. However, as far as albums are concerned, there's one reason why i choose this slab over the others: The last track, the 10 minute epic titled Ontogony of Behavior. It rises from the mud, dripping and gurgling, slowly wiping itself clean, slicking it's black feathers back into place. It's eyes dart around aquainting itself, centering itself and 4 minutes in it takes flight like lucifer. Darting through the night sky picking off people left and right, taking they're sight and sound and leaving them crouched in horror, begging for mercy, and just when you think it's over it comes back and takes what's left. This is my favorite song of all time.
