Cephalic Carnage used to blow my mind when they played live often trumping the large acts they were opening up for. Commanding stage presence, fun antics, ganja worship, one of the best drummers I have ever seen in a live setting and of course their unique blend of grindcore and technical death metal. It has become pretty clear that Lucid Interval is their best work and I am admittedly, unfortunately unfamiliar with half of their other records. Lucid Interval is an adventure. Rooted in low tempo dissonance and grindcore the album never really allows you to find a safe footing. Pseudo is a track that exemplifies this: fast paced mish mash riffs lead to a wall of reverbed noise and then into a short spoken word interspersed with a breakdown, what a song indeed. Due to its wild nature many Grindcore groups lack an ultimate direction, sometimes intentional, but this album for me represents one with plenty of direction: the moments are chaotic but the overarching organization leads you to fantastic places. Perhaps a bit on the long side and much of Arsonist Savior feels unnecessary but overall an excellent collection of music. Lucid Interval is one of the best songs ever written, period, seriously. That track alone is enough for to garner greatness but plenty of other top notch tracks are here like Anthro Emesis, Pseudo, Rebellion and Black Metal Sabbath.

Some of the finest grindcore I have heard that is intense, funny, and just unique.
