From small beginnings, great things come. Or something like that.

Regurgitate’s first demo, recorded in 1991, contained eleven songs, and was recorded as a two piece. As you’d expect from a grindcore demo of that age, the sound quality is pretty rough, especially the vocals from Rikard Jansson, which often seem to be the final element to fully develop in a grindcore band’s sound. He got the full-on throat shredding gargle/roar going right from the start though. There might be lyrics. Who can tell? There are definitely the old well-worn gory song titles though, like “Cadaveric Dissolution”, “Matted Fungus” and the somewhat disturbing “Disinterring Urine”.

Regurgitate played fast, as you’d expect. However, the guitar sound is reasonably chunky, and there are a couple of decent enough riffs, rather than just a wall of white noise thanks to Mats Nordrup. Mats also played drums in Crematory (Sweden) and legendary gore masters General Surgery. The songs on this demo were also pretty short. None clocks in at over 15 seconds. And there you have the most remarkable thing about this demo- eleven songs, two minutes and eight seconds. It seemed like Regurgitate were in a hurry to be somewhere else.

There’s not much more to say about this demo. It’s rough, it’s fast, it’s gory, and it shows promise. What more can you expect from a grindcore demo which lasts just over two minutes?
