A Death Metal beast hailing from Costa Rica returns with its fourth studio album, a sonic pilgrimage that explores the darkest corners of the human psyche.
Formed in 2011 in the city of Heredia, Costa Rica, the ruthless Technical Death Metal squad known as Inhuman is unleashing upon humanity their fourth full-length album, titled Prerogative Of The Unborn, a descent into the abyss of Death Metal with newfound echoes of melody that defy the norm. Displaying a sinister artwork by Phlegeton (aka Jose Luis Rey Sanchez), the new album by vocalist Gabriel Martinez, guitarist Jonathan Sanchez, bassist Andrés Maroto, and drummer Juriel Barquero is a manifesto of rebellion against the mainstream, a sonic pilgrimage that explores the darkest corners of the human psyche highly influenced by Decapitated, Lamb Of God, Behemoth, Decide, and Cannibal Corpse, among others, being therefore recommended for fans of the most visceral yet technical side of Death Metal.
The evil riffage by Jonathan and the sick drumming by Juriel ignite the mosh pit feast titled Columbarium, sounding infernal and violent just the way we like it in old school Death Metal, whereas the title-track Prerogative Of The Unborn brings forward six minutes of heaviness and savagery by the quartet, showcasing all their dexterity and passion for extreme music, with Gabriel roaring like a beast nonstop. Juriel then blasts some demented, intricate beats in In The Name Of The Father, adding an extra dosage of violence to their sound while Jonathan and Andrés hammer their stringed axes manically; followed by Poetry Of A Decaying Soul, a visceral, more direct tune showcasing the band’s incendiary Death Metal essence, with Gabriel once again taking the lead with his raspy vociferations.
The second half of the album begins with six minutes of darkness titled Dreadful Existence, offering our avid ears some ass-kicking breaks, variations, and the band’s trademark aggression, with Juriel sounding bestial on drums, while Worthless Skin is one hundred percent inspired by Death Metal titans the likes of Cannibal Corpse and Vomitory, as the band brings forward a gruesome sonic attack perfect for some sick headbanging. Their second to last onrush of insanity and obscurity is entitled Deathless Crave, where Andrés blasts his bass furiously accompanied by the always classy beats by Juriel, flowing into the closing tune I’m Staying Inside You, where the band delivers another solid display of Death Metal, sounding groovy while at the same time ruthless, albeit not the most electrifying option for putting an end to the album.
This beast of an album is available in full on YouTube and on Spotify, but of course if you want to show your utmost support to the Costa Rican underground you can purchase a copy of Prerogative Of The Unborn from the GrimmDistribution’s BandCamp page, and don’t forget to also check what the guys from Inhuman are up to on Facebook and on Instagram, or simply click HERE for all things Inhuman. Proudly carrying the flag of Costa Rican metal, those talented musicians will crush you to the sound of their new album, a Death Metal machine that will surely fuel them to keep moving forward and releasing more insanity in the form of music in the coming years.
