With History Repeats..., brutal death metal veterans Dying Fetus have decided to pay homage to their influences through an EP of cover songs. Covering such prolific and influential acts such as Dehumanized, Napalm Death, Broken Hope, Bolt Thrower, Pestilence, and Cannibal Corpse, this mini-album should provide plenty of enjoyment for old school death metal fans and Dying Fetus followers alike. Dying Fetus does put their own spin on all of the tracks here, without distancing themselves too much from the originals. The band's brutal death metal sound shines as brightly as ever here, with the trio dishing out some excellent and tight musicianship. The production on History Repeats... is also extremely professional and I think it suits the music perfectly.

In addition to the cover songs, History Repeats... also features a short grindcore-influenced original song with "Rohypnol". This EP is mainly a collector's item for established fans of Dying Fetus, but it's still a very enjoyable listen that's recommendable to brutal death metal fans. History Repeats... shouldn't be your introduction to these American veterans, but it does make for a few fun spins for any seasoned fan. 3 stars are deserved here.
