REVIEW
...
Ever since I first heard Stickoxydal I knew they were something special, something quite original and something that will possibly reform the Goregrind scene (seriously). Their music, as brutal and sickening as it is, shows that Grindcore has a chance after all; we recall this genre with bands like Repulsion, Regurgitate and Carcass; now I am not saying that this Belarusian band is as good as those aforementioned names, what I'm saying is that, if they keep going through the right direction, they will be someday.
Chainsaw Cesarean Section is simply a MCD with just 18 minutes of music (and a lot o video for that matter); what impresses me the most is the fact that Stickoxydal succeeds at shocking the audience with such a small amount of minutes. The music is somehow different from their Full-Length album called "The Perverted Position Of Interiors", we are now bombarded with polished sound and a better composition. To sum things up, the music evolved and renewed so we can have a taste of Stickoxydal's genuineness without the comic factor being so important.
The whole MCD is a living testimony of the band's creativity; check the Squash Bowels/CBT cover, Stickoxydal managed to blend 4 different songs to create o new one simply called "Sarx" (the sound in this track is not the best quality as it's a live performance after all). Throughout the album you'll understand all those things I just say believe me, this is no ordinary band at all.
So anyway, Stickoxydal is a great band with amazing features…what I love the most is that they have the capacity to improve ad to develop themselves and their music even more; I can't wait to hear their next Full-Length, my hopes are really fucking high with this band; and I mean sky-high like never before, and if you're a smart person you'll have the same expectations as me.

This russian boys´s choir with mastermind Schnappi goes for a next Gore Grind revolt. Even the 4 guys looking like they would be drinking lemonade and eating candyfloss, they use a big load of blood and guts! They are threshing, sawing and growling that the siberian backwood is shaking. Even this mercyless assault, the songs have a good structure, how it´s possible in raw Grindcore. It´s all between C.B.T and (thanks god) old GUT. I like this shit and for me it is a appreciate continue of the last album. You can hear 6 new songs and 2 coverversions (C.B.T. and ANAL CUNT) and 20 minutes of livevideo. Coole Ep for Gorehounds, very brutal piece. 2nd full lenght comes next year, so enjoy this till then.
