Yesterday I went with something smooth and jazzy as the soundtrack for your Saturday night chillings, but today I've decided you could use something a little heavier to cap off your weekend and get you set up right for the week to come.
The name of today's band says it all: Cyborg Octopus. If a band with a name like that isn't capable of some awesomeness, then I think we're all pretty much doomed. Lucky for us the band's debut EP Primordial does indeed feature some quality death metal, with some acoustic guitars, some jazzy bits, and a couple of other pinches of various flavours throw in for shits and/or giggles. It might not be the best melange of this kind you've ever heard, but it's still pretty rad, and pretty promising coming from a young band too.
Better still, they're a metal band with a bit of a social conscience, a la Cattle Decapitation or even Gojira. Your song today, "Pukefeast Inc.", is an attack on agribusiness, GMO's, and the general evils of the modern food industry, and it's a tasty slab of what I would label deathcore in the truest sense -- death metal with a little hardcore gravy on top. Don't feel bad about ingesting this particular octopus.
