Gut / Rompeprop – Split 7″ (2006)

Gut sounds absolutely huge on vinyl, I just wish they’d stop fucking around and play some more grind! I love the fun element of modern Gut whereas a lot of goregrinders shun them now, but on this record for the most part it’s a template of “typical porn sample followed by uninspired five-to-ten second song with silly vocals”. I am glad that I didn’t shell out the earth for the original CD version of this, and I even commend Everydayhate for putting this on wax. Not to mention, “Nympho is a Gee” is my all time favourite Gut song (either that or “The Taboo Room”). But, unfortunately, the rest of the Gut side is massively disappointing, and often boring.

Rompeprop on the other hand simply cannot be faulted. Open up the sleeve and see written “If you think harmonizer / pitchshifter-vocals are fake, so is your distortion on your guitar!”. That couldn’t be more right! Big up the pitchshifted vokills! After the hilarious opener “Hallo!”, Rompeprop gurgle’n’slam through some excellent polka-dance inducing goregrind for us all. ‘Nuff said. Spin this, get up, wiggle back and forth and point those fingers.
