Grog - Scooping the Cranial Insides

With 20 years of existence, Portuguese Grog are like a long-standing institution in the worldwide gore scene. This new work marks the return of these veterans to recordings following a prolonged absence that lasted nearly 9 years and shows a reinvigorated band with a fierce hunger to recover all the lost time.

The current line-up, with vocalist Pedro Pedra as the only founding member left, enlists the impeccably talented drummer Rolando Barros, former Painstruck guitarist Ivo Martins and ex-Bleeding Display bassist Alexandre Ribeiro, and let me reassure that these guys are capable of crafting some disgustingly brutal music just as we’ve grown to expect from this band.
