Feed Them Death is a solo project from the United Kingdom that plays an avant garde mixture of black, sludge metal, experimental, noise and grindcore and this is a review of his 2020 album "Panopticism: Belong/Be Lost"which will be released in April by I, Voidhanger Records.
Powerful sounding bass guitars start off the album along with some heavy riffing a few seconds later. Vocals are a mixture of death metal growls and black metal screams while the faster sections of the songs also add in a great amount of blast beats and grindcore elements and the riffs also add in a small amounts of melody.
A great portion of the tracks are also very short in length while the songs also add in a decent mixture of slow, mid paced and fast parts. A great amount of guitar amp distortion can also be heard quite a bit throughout the recording along with the slower sections of the songs also adding in elements of sludge metal.
Experimental and avant garde sounds are also mixed in with the heavier sections of the music at times. Touches of drone and harsh noise can also be heard in certain parts of the recording and as the album progresses a brief use of stringed instruments, female vocals and spoken word parts can also be heard before returning back to a more brutal direction. The production sounds very professional while the lyrics are a concept album inspired by "Discipline And Punish" and "Madness And Civilization" by philosopher and social theorist Michael Foucault.
In my opinion Feed Them Death is a very great sounding avant garde mixture of black, sludge metal, experimental, noise and grindcore and if you are a fan of those musical genres, you should check out this solo project. RECOMMENDED TRACKS INCLUDE "Zoneless Confinement" "For Our Insolent Dead" "Black Blue Bahquet" and "Dead Is Better". 8 out of 10.
