Reviews    The Cumshots - The Last Sons of Evil (This Dark Reign Records)
by Chris Barnes

Ole Petter Andreassen, (aka El Doom) the producer/mastermind/guitar pyrotechnician/king of odd stage names, behind the mighty Thulsa Doom, Black Debbath, Hellride, The Wonderfools, Gluecifer and many others, decided that Norway needed a shot of heavy metal in it's withered arm. So The Cumshots were born.

If you just took the Cumshots at face value, meaning the uber-gay stag gay porn album cover and band monikor, you'd probably guess that the Cumshots were starting a leather boy heavy music revolution in Norway.

Nope. They'd probably sell a ton more albums if they called themselves "Satan's Ballsack", but that's not really the point. The point is that The Cumshots deliver the best Entombed-inspired album since...well since Entombed's To Ride, Shoot Straight and Speak the Truth. Brutally raw, death n' roll accentuated by Max Cargo's larynx-searing vocals and Rodriguez Morales' meth-metal drumming. Eleven trachea-ripping glimpses of brutality. Killing, shooting, fucking, Satan, fear, and homo-erotic album covers. Kind of mirrors your life in a lot of ways, doesn't it?
