GORY BLISTER
ART BLEEDS

"Art Bleeds" Art Bleeds is the first full-length album by Gory Blister, released originally in 1999 (and re-issued in 2003 by Sekhmet Records). Even with its complicated publication history, it established Gory Blister as a significant and distinctive force in the Italian death metal scene. "Art Bleeds" can be compared to the later, more progressive work of Death, with similarities in the progressive death metal style, single-string note progressions, and even the vocal style. It is also noted for its high-precision, surgical playing and chaotic tempo changes, breaks, and harmonic dissonance. It balances intense aggression (often with a thrash metal feel) with a strong sense of melody, which is woven into the complex and fast riffs without losing intensity. This two CD version contains the album, a remastered version of the "Cognitive Sinergy" mini, the two demos and some live bonus tracks from the period.
