Composed of eleven tracks, Violence Unimagined is cutting-edge death metal played with passion and breathtaking precision. “It really follows the path we’ve been on for a few years now,” says bassist and founding member Alex Webster. “I think we approach writing the same way every time: each of us tries to write the heaviest and most memorable songs we can. We want each song to have its own identifiable character. Showing my age, I like to say you can 'drop the needle' on any point of one of our albums and quickly tell which song you’re listening to.” While they continue to do what they do with confidence, the only substantial change made to Cannibal Corpse is the addition of guitarist Erik Rutan to their ranks, joining Webster, founding drummer Paul Mazurkiewicz, guitarist Rob Barrett, and singer George “Corpsegrinder” Fisher. Known for his roles in Morbid Angel. Ripping through corpses and especially facing the powerful Eternal Hate, Rutan has long established himself as one of the most dynamic forces in contemporary death metal. At the same time, he has built a reputation as one of the most sought-after producers in the metal field, having already produced four albums for Cannibal Corpse (in addition to Violence Unimagined), alongside Goatwhore, Soilent Green, and Belphegor. Already well known for the extreme level of technicality they bring to each record, on Violence Unimagined, Cannibal Corpse have further improved their game, “I think we’ve all technically outdone ourselves a bit at this point!”
