The self-titled album "Rapegoat" by the band Rapegoat is a brutal and unrelenting assault on the senses. The album features eight tracks of raw and aggressive blackened death metal that will leave listeners feeling battered and bruised.
From the opening track "Ritualistic Slaughter" to the closing song "Rapegoat," the band delivers a relentless barrage of blast beats, guttural vocals, and crushing riffs. The production is raw and unpolished, adding to the overall sense of brutality and aggression.
Despite the unrelenting nature of the music, there are moments of technical proficiency and musicality that showcase the band's skill and talent. The guitar solos on tracks like "Sacrificial Altar" and "The Black Goat" are particularly impressive.
The lyrics on the album are dark and disturbing, dealing with themes of violence, blasphemy, and sexual depravity. While not for the faint of heart, the lyrics add to the overall atmosphere of the album and complement the music perfectly.
