Brutality - Metamorphosis (1991)

Before the brilliant Screams of Anguish, Brutality put out this demo. It has three tracks, with one of them ("Mausoleum of Infringing Evil") eventually appearing on SoA under a different name ("Septicemic Plague"). Their style was already pretty well established, but what I find missing in this demo are the extraordinary guitar leads that made SoA the classic that it is. Other than that, it's quality death metal with some thrash tendencies featuring semi-technical guitarwork and tight playing. Unfortunately, while "Mausoleum" really shines, the other two tracks are pretty bland, making this demo just a curiosity at this point.
