FOETUS CORRUPTUS - Rife
[reissue]
Songs: 11  Time:  67:27
Clint Ruin's Foetus project was a staple in the bizarre-o underground music scene back in the 80's.  Now, a decade later, Invisible Records decided to re-release on of the more profound Foetus releases, Rife.  Can this CD stand up against the more modern musical styles of the 90's?  Most…definitely yes.  Recorded live, Rife contains some of the best Foetus material to ever be recorded.  The barbaric sounding Honey I'm Home comes complete with the cacophonous instrumentations, volatile vocals, and thunderous drums.  Grab Yr. Ankles is one of the more 'song' structured pieces.  With a chorus and bridges, Grab Yr. Ankles is one of the less abstract pieces on Rife.  A Prayer For My Death builds and builds and builds and finally explodes with riotous guitar work, crashing drums, and rowdy vocals.  The Fudge Punch is a slower piece that dawdles along with angry vocals, pace-setting beats, and the occasional guitar intrusion.  Rife is one of those definitive CDs that everyone should own, but will they?  Probably not.
