The dead may rest but the grind goes on. Cartilage are serving up another frenzied feast with a new EP, Tales from the Entrails: A Necrology via Everlasting Spew Records. The blastmasters took their studio operations to home base, enlisting Scott Evans (Kowloon Walled City, Ghoul, Thrice) for recording and mixing duties, while the genre’s perennial grindfather Leon del Muerte (Impaled, Exhumed, Nails) handled mastering. The Bay Area gore titans continue to spill their guts across the land but with new tools in their trade: twisting harmonies and cinematic set-pieces now compliment Cartilage’s arsenal of blistering blasts, ripcord riffs, and deranged shrieks fans know to expect.
