CANNIBAL CORPSE
TORTURE (PHD EXCLUSIVE WHITE VINYL)

Since their beginning 37 years ago as a small band out of Buffalo, NY, CANNIBAL CORPSE has not only managed to go platinum for combined worldwide sales of all albums, but in the process also gained one of the strongest and most loyal of all Death Metal fan bases in the genre's history. CANNIBAL CORPSE will never ever be dethroned as the ruling leaders of Death Metal.

Once banned in Australia, New Zealand & Korea... Censored in Germany, where they are still banned from performing any material off their first three albums... One would think this would hurt sales and inhibit the band's availability to grow, but not CANNIBAL CORPSE! It has been discovered that the band is now officially the top selling Death Metal band of the SoundScan Era!

Returning with the ceaselessly hostile 'Torture' in 2012, Cannibal Corpse prove that when it comes to combining unrestrained maliciousness, involving song writing and technical precision they still have no equal, once again fortifying their position at the forefront of death metal. The twelfth full-length of their inspiring thirty-seven year career, the Floridian quintet had never sounded so vital, the album building upon the wealth of powerful, dark, and memorable songs comprising 2006's 'Kill' and 2009's 'Evisceration Plague' and pointedly upping the ante at every turn.

While this marked the latest progression in the band's sound, 'Torture' also witnesses a return to what drummer Paul Mazurkiewicz accurately terms "the frenzied attack of 'Butchered At Birth' (1991) or 'Tomb Of The Mutilated' (1992)", infusing the band's advanced musicianship with the raw savagery that haunted their earlier releases, and in the process conceiving the definitive Cannibal Corpse record.
