4/5 ·
Warthur
The Genitorturers' second album is the first one with David Vincent as a full-time member of the band - he'd previously done bass here and there but hadn't joined officially, but by this stage he'd left Morbid Angel to give his full attention to his then-wife Gen's industrial metal project. Horny industrial stuff like this was ten a penny back in the late 1990s, of course; Sin City's 1998 release date more or less coincides with peak Marilyn Manson. Yet whilst Manson put a lot of energy into creating the impression he was making some sort of deep artistic statement which just happened to use lots of alternatingly creepy and horny imagery for esoteric reasons, the Genitorturers don't bother to conceal what their ambitions are: they want to be the ideal soundtrack for your local BDSM club, and with a combination of sexually charged lyrics, catchy industrial metal, and a sense of kinky, edgy fun running through the album, they more or less succeed.
