Containing former members of cult crust grinders Filthpact (whose final album, incidentally, is
available for sliding scale download), progressive deathsters Korpse, the short-lived Fester and current members of Ablach, Aberdeen's
Bonesaw have a pedigree that ensures there's no fucking about – building a globally recognised brand of bludgeoning old school death metal that harvests the organs from Autopsy, Repulsion, Machetazo, Necrophagia, Death and even a spot of Incantation's rumbling menace of their most recent output. It's not enough to simply write shuddering slabs of primordial death metal, you've got to make all the right associations.
Given splits with Kam Lee-fronted horror metallers Bone Gnawer and and post-Autopsy filthbags Abcess, as well as the 'Resurrected in Festering Slime' vinyl compilation that kickstarted the briefly hyped Swedish death metal re-revival, Bonesaw have done that. Their 'Sawtopsy' full-length is immediately worth getting your hands on in preparation for the forthcoming split with
Sicilian gorelords Haemophagus – this disc is fearsomely tight and cavernously heavy,

Plus, there's a Massacre cover.
