CATASTROPHIC
Reviewed by Kate Smith
Catastrophic is another brutal death metal band that comes at us with "The Cleansing."
With Trevor Peres, from Obituary, on guitar, Catastrophic has a very distinct Florida-influenced death metal sound with the usual growling vocals, shredding guitar and intense double-pedal percussion.
My favorite tracks are "Lab Rats," "The Cleansing," "Jesters of the Millennium" and "Blood Maiden."
I wouldn't say this is one of the best death metal bands I've heard, but they're worth giving a listen to.
Catastrophic is: Trevor Peres - guitar; Keith Devito - vocals; Chris Basile - guitar; Briand Hobbie - bass; Rob Maresca - drums.

Rating Guide:
A classic. This record will kick your ass.
Killer. Not a classic but it will rock your world.
So-so. You've heard better.
Pretty bad. Might make a nice coaster.
Self explanatory. Just the sight of the cover makes you wanna hurl.
