Cannibal Corpse

Live Cannibalism

Metal Blade

Live recording from a recent death metal festival in Milwaukee and Indianapolis. Features joyful ditties as “Fucked With a Knife,” “Meathook Sodomy,” “Stripped, Raped, and Strangled,” and “A Skull Full of Maggots.”

It’s no news to the metal music industry insiders that the women in the business aren’t too pleased with Cannibal Corpse. But it is strange that they’re sided with Bob Dole, who made a point of his 1996 presidential campaign to mention this band as a contributor to “what’s wrong with the kids these days.”

The shows must’ve been pretty good, because the fans are screaming for more, aren’t they? I’ll tell you one thing, I’d rather be at a Cannibal Corpse show than see Eminem pull a duet with Elton John. Although were Cannibal to open for E and EJ, I’d stay for the whole thing. Suffer.
