Rating 4/5

It has been awhile since these swedes released their mcd "Relentless
Retaliation" that really gave them a name in the underground of death metal. Well, now they are back once more and some changes have followed with them. First of all I would like to say that it has been awhile since I heard an album that starts off as agressive as this one. The first track is a great opening for this album.

Immersed in blood has indeed evolved. The music is much faster, almost inhuman drumming, and some of the breakdowns are so heavy that you easily could get down that much so that you could break your back in two. The album was recorded in the same studio as "Relentless Retaliation", but the soundquality is rawer, but that just makes it sound more brutal. If you havent heard IIB before, you should know that the vocals are not at all into the ultra guttural style that many bands use these days. Although I like it more that way, this vocalist still has tons of agression to spew forth, maybe like a way more pissed off Corpsegrinder (Cannibal Corpse, if you by any chance have forgotten) and it brings somewhat extra rage and intensity to the music.

And what about lyrics? Well, they are hateful, filled with a lot of agression, not that much ultra- disgusting, sometimes silly gore. Instead its more of a "in-your-face" style. The whole idea behind the coverart, booklet and everything concerning the cd-case, must have come from hours of watching western movies and I must say that its really original.

This album gets 4 out of 5. Very agressive and very promising deathgrind that has some of the most inhuman drumming that I have ever heard. Maybe the soundquality makes it hard to hear some of the instruments sometimes and it becomes a little muffled, but its still good.
