UMUR
"The Pungent Stench Sessions" is a collaborative album release by Austrian death metal/death´n´roll act Pungent Stench and US artist Dr. Heathen Scum (known from among other acts The Mentors). The album was released through Mentor Records in April 2010. If you´re familiar with the extremity, the depravity, and over the top hedonism of the two artists, it´s no surprise that a collaboration saw the light of day. So what do you get when you combine two rotten entities?...well...

Stylistically the death metal/death´n´roll elements of Pungent Stench are not a part of the sound. So this is basically a filthy, hard rocking rock´n´roll album with some very primitive and nasty sexual tinged lyrics. It doesn´t get much more stupid and hedonistic (...and I´m sure some would add misogynistic) than the lyrics to opening track "Hot, Tight, and Wet" (...and then again, every track on the album features lyrics like these). Let´s just establish that the lyrics aren´t exactly respectful towards women. It´s like listening to a porn movie translated to music. Women are constantly referred to as sluts, bitches, whores...etc.

So yeah the lyrics are pretty offensive, but that´s to be expected from someone associated with The Mentors. I can´t say Pungent Stench add much of their usual identity to the music and it´s pretty primitive and badly performed rock´n´roll. A few of the lyrics make me crack a smile...but that´s it. This is simply too ridiculous/ignorant/offensive, amaturish/untight, and also pretty badly produced to make me excited. I´m sure there is a segment out there who´ll enjoy this...but it´s no one I know. A 2 star (40%) rating is warranted.
